Electric Bus Pantograph Up Main Features:
600kW Electric bus pantograph for EV Charger Station
The electric bus pantograph solution comes equipped with a roof-mounted pantograph. This allows for efficient fleet management, enabling overnight charging in a range of 50-150 kW per vehicle and opportunity charging during the day with 150 kW up to 600 kW.
Connecting electric buses to the charger via an upward pantograph is simple and efficient. When the bus pulls into a station, the driver initiates the process by pressing a button to extend the pantograph. It rises from the bus roof and docks with the contact hood installed at the station. Once the charging cycle is complete or the bus is ready to depart, the pantograph automatically disconnects and retracts. The brief duration of passenger boarding and alighting is sufficient to add 10 km of driving range.
During station stops, a typical 3 to 6-minute charge is enough to meet normal operational requirements throughout the day. With the "panto-up" charging solution, all moving components required for the connection are integrated within the electric bus itself.
The Panto-up Bus Charging Station is equally well-suited for overnight depot charging. A single charging unit can power up to three overhead hoods, enabling the connection of three buses at once. The system charges each bus sequentially, which helps reduce energy costs during peak hours and utilizes smart power management to ensure all vehicles are fully charged.
