Thermal management of new energy vehicles

Dec,07,2024 << Return list

Why do pure electric vehicles and charging stations need good heaters for thermal management of new energy vehicles?


DBK has launched a series of thermal management solutions for new energy vehicles, including buses, coaches, tourist buses, commercial vehicles and other large vehicles, providing them with high-voltage PTC air flow heaters suitable for heating and air conditioning systems (AHUs). In addition, PTC low back pressure air flow heaters are also suitable for heating the cabin or battery modules of most vehicles.


In addition, we have also launched a new customized product, Canyon 75W/100W version and Typhoon EC40, suitable for thermal management of new energy vehicle charging piles - why should charging piles be equipped with heaters?


Although the charging station will be in a high temperature state during operation, there is almost no condensation generated at this time; However, in standby mode, the temperature will still decrease compared to operation, especially at night and during rainy periods, which greatly increases the chance of moisture accumulation inside the charging station. As mentioned in previous articles, moisture and condensation can easily cause electrical components to age and rust. Therefore, we generally recommend that charging stations be equipped with dehumidification devices, such as heaters.


Some customers may be concerned about the heating and dehumidification solution, fearing that it may cause the charging station to overheat, but this is not the case. PTC heaters have the characteristic of automatic constant temperature, which can ensure that the temperature will not be too high. In addition, they can also be paired with our compact thermostat to ensure that the heater only starts at the appropriate time, further avoiding unnecessary safety risks.


So what are the benefits of using a heater for charging stations?


1. Can protect the screen - Many charging stations now have advertising displays and interactive touch panels, which can become extremely insensitive or display malfunctions in cold weather. Using a heater can ensure that the screen does not frost or fog, allowing it to display images clearly for a long time.


2. High dehumidification efficiency, in line with economic benefits - There are many dehumidification solutions for charging stations, but the heater has the highest cost-effectiveness and good balanced dehumidification performance.
