|---|---|---|
| ArchitectureSplit DC (power cabinet + dispensers) or all-in-one | Split DC: Power Unit cabinet with dynamic power sharing, Satellite dispensers on cables, modular 50 kW power blocks | ↗ ↗ |
| Power per cabinet or unitLargest single Power Unit (triple cabinet, twelve 50 kW modules); 450 kW also offered, single and double cabinets up to 400 kW. Two Power Units in parallel give 800 or 1,200 kW | 600 kW | ↗ |
| Power-sharing stepPower moves between charging points in 25 kW steps; the power modules themselves are 50 kW. Earlier: 50 (eTRUCKTCO calculators, which count in 50 kW modules) | 25 kW | ↗ |
| Outlets per power unitDispensers or plugs one cabinet can feed | Up to 12 charging points on a 450 or 600 kW Power Unit, up to 8 on single and double cabinets; each Satellite has one or two plugs | ↗ ↗ |
| Max power per CCS outletPer plug, at 500 A and 800 V; 300 kW at the continuous 375 A | 400 kW | ↗ ↗ |
| Max current, CCS500 A for at most 15 or 50 minutes at +25 °C, depending on the version; 375 A continuous. Needs several Power Unit outputs joined together | 500 A | ↗ ↗ |
| Megawatt Charging System (MCS)The Satellite has CCS2 or CHAdeMO plugs only; the same Power Units also feed the Mega Satellite Flex, which has MCS (see its sheet) | no | ↗ |
| Max power per MCS outlet | not published | |
| Max current, MCSMCS connector allows up to 3,000 A | not published | |
| Output voltage rangeMaximum | 1000 V | ↗ |
| Efficiency, grid to plugPower Unit at full load, datasheet of March 2023 (C800); Kempower hands out newer datasheets only after a form on its website | 94 % | ↗ |
| Loss grid to battery, overnight depotAs assumed in the eTRUCKTCO calculators | ≈ 8 (split DC, low loss) % | ↗ |
| CoolingLiquid-cooled cables / air | Liquid-cooled cables on the Liquid-Cooled Satellite (500 A, 400 kW or more, for trucks and buses, with a 600 or 1,200 kW Power Unit); the Power Unit cabinet is air-cooled (air inlet and outlet) | ↗ ↗ |
| Cable lengthCharging cable length options; the Satellite can stand up to 80 m from the Power Unit. Versions with 7 m cables weigh 2 kg more | 5 / 7 m | ↗ |
| Protection and temperature rangePower Unit figures from the March 2023 datasheet | IP54, IK10; -30 to +55 °C, less current above +40 °C (Satellite). Power Unit: IP54, IK10, -30 to +50 °C | ↗ ↗ |
| NoiseLess than 60 dB at 1 m, Power Unit (datasheet of March 2023) | 60 dB | ↗ |
| Battery bufferBuilt-in storage to soften the grid peak, if any | not published | |
| Size and weightPower Unit figures from the March 2023 datasheet | Satellite 300 × 1,738 × 300 mm (W × H × D), 76–176 kg by version; Power Unit 650, 1,250 or 1,850 mm wide (single, double, triple cabinet) × 2,195 mm high × 841 mm deep, 280–1,200 kg | ↗ ↗ |
