Features

Public and workplace charging in one column

MID billing meters

Each output has its own MID-certified energy meter. Measured consumption is the basis for billing and payments in the OCPP system.

AFIR payment

When operated on an OCPP back end, the display shows a QR code for payment. The station complies with the AFIR regulation for public charging.

5″ display

Charging information, QR code for payment and promotional video or static visuals. RGB status indication.

OCPP, Modbus and power sharing

LAN, OCPP 1.6J and 2.0.1, Modbus TCP, over-the-air updates (OTA). Load Balance splits the supply capacity between stations (requires IONT meter).

RFID access

Authorisation with 13.5 MHz RFID cards and tags; users can be identified for cost allocation.

Protection on every output

Integrated RCD AC 30 mA + DC 6 mA for each output. Temperature sensors in the power electronics, in the cable version also in the connectors.

Configurations

Two sockets or two tethered cables

Both configurations are PREMIUM AFIR versions with the same equipment, in Burberry stripes and Antracit stripes.

In the car park

A station you can see

In a full car park a wall charger is easy to miss. The e:car COLUMN is 177 cm tall, so it stands out above car roofs, and only 17.5 cm wide, so it fits in a row between bays. One column serves two cars at once.

  • 177 cm tall, above the roofs of ordinary cars
  • 17.5 cm wide, 32.8 cm deep
  • Two outputs for two adjacent bays
  • Free-standing, no load-bearing wall needed
AFIR regulation

Payment without registration

Since 13 April 2024, newly installed public charging points in the EU must allow ad hoc payment without registration or a contract.

A physical payment terminal is mandatory for DC stations from 50 kW. For lower-power AC stations, secure online payment is sufficient, for example via a dynamic QR code.

When operated on an OCPP back end, the e:car COLUMN shows the QR code directly on its display. We can also take over the operation of a public station, including payments and settlement.

Frequently asked questions

Does the e:car COLUMN comply with AFIR?

Can it charge two cars at once?

Yes. The column has two outputs of up to 22 kW each. With IONT meter it splits the available supply capacity between several stations.

Can consumption be allocated?

Yes. Each output has its own MID-certified billing meter, and users can be identified with RFID cards.

Which back end does the station work with?

Any back end that supports OCPP 1.6J or 2.0.1. Modbus TCP is available for smart home or energy management systems.

How is the column anchored?

On a ground stand that is set in concrete. Installation and commissioning are carried out by certified IONT partners.

What is the warranty?

2 years on the unit and 3 years on the power electronics.
