Lincoln Electric launches Velion DC fast charger for electric vehicles

The charger operates at a wide range of temperatures.

Lincoln Electric introduced the Velion DC fast charger for electric vehicles, a Level 3 DC fast charger platform. The announcement was made at the Work Truck Show.

“The Velion is designed to meet the stringent needs of charge point operators who install, operate and manage networks of charging stations as well as businesses with EV fleets requiring reliable, fast charging,” said Steven Sumner, vice president of corporate innovation at Lincoln Electric.

The inaugural 150kW Velion DC fast charger exceeds 75% domestic content and is engineered to exceed 97% uptime with an output of up to 1000V/150A and 500V/300A, with charging efficiency of 95%, the company says. It operates within the temperature range of -31° F to 122° F (-35° C to 50° C).

Why fuel filtration science matters
