Heliox, a leader in DC charging systems for medium- and heavy-duty vehicles, has unveiled the Heliox 60, a 60kW EV charger designed specifically for the North American market. This Buy America-compliant charger is compact, versatile, and aims to meet the increasing demand for efficient and reliable EV charging solutions.
Key Highlights
- Continuous 150 A output for full 60 kW charge rate
- Various installation methods: wall, floor-mounted pedestal, and mobile cart
- Cloud-connection for control, diagnostics, and reporting
Innovative Design for Diverse Applications
The Heliox 60 is a testament to Heliox’s commitment to innovation and quality. Building on the success of their 50 kW charger, the Heliox 60 is certified (UL2202, CSA C22.2, Energy Star) and features a single CCS-1 (SAE J1772) output. Future versions will include NACS (SAE J3400) and multi-output configurations. This model can also be adapted to a 30 kW version within the same cabinet design, offering flexibility and scalability.
Enhanced User Experience
David Aspinwall, Heliox U.S. President, emphasized the importance of this new addition: “Since first ramping up the US team, the Heliox 60 was destined to be a staple in our product portfolio. There are many exciting collaborations and pilots focused on high-power and megawatt charging systems (MCS), but application-appropriate power and high-value chargers are paramount in the present state of the EV industry.”
The Heliox 60 boasts a low-profile installation, a range of accessories, an LCD display, and high-visibility LED energy status bars, ensuring ease of use and convenience for operators.
Integration and Availability
Following Siemens’ acquisition of Heliox, the Heliox 60 will be distributed through select Siemens distributors, Sourcewell, and partnerships with leading vehicle OEMs and developers. Interoperability testing ensures seamless operation with the latest medium- and heavy-duty vehicles, and all Heliox chargers utilize the Open Charge Point Protocol (OCPP) for cloud-based monitoring and control.
Expanding the Siemens eMobility Portfolio
As a Siemens business, Heliox adds significant value to Siemens’ eMobility charging solutions, with products ranging from 30kW to 1MW. This range supports depots and en-route charging, particularly for eBus and eTruck fleets.
