Air cooled split charging terminals are widely recognized as cost-effective and versatile fast-charging equipment, ideal for most medium-power commercial charging scenarios. Different from liquid cooled terminals that focus on ultra-high power supercharging stations, air cooled split models balance charging power, construction cost and maintenance difficulty, making them the most popular choice for mass charging infrastructure construction. These split-type chargers separate the power cabinet and charging terminals, which greatly reduces the size and weight of the parking-side equipment. This feature allows flexible installation in various space-limited parking environments where traditional integrated chargers are difficult to deploy.
They are highly applicable for community public parking lots, office building parking areas, shopping malls, scenic spots and urban roadside parking spaces. These scenarios usually require stable 120kW to 240kW fast charging capacity, moderate vehicle flow and continuous daily charging demands. Air cooled split terminals can fully meet user fast-charging needs without excessive construction investment. In addition, they perform well in fleet charging sites, including online car-hailing fleets, taxi stations, logistics vehicle bases and bus depots. Fleet vehicles have high daily charging frequency and stable operating load, and air cooling dissipation can maintain long-term stable operation under regular high-frequency charging conditions.
Moreover, air cooled split charging terminals are suitable for suburban service stations, highway auxiliary charging points and enterprise internal charging zones. Compared with liquid cooling devices, they have simpler structural design and lower environmental requirements. They can adapt to ordinary outdoor temperature changes, dust and common humid weather conditions, ensuring stable operation in ordinary outdoor environments.
The centralized power cabinet design also facilitates unified power management and capacity expansion. Operators can add more charging terminals according to the growth of EV numbers, realizing gradual investment and flexible capacity upgrade. For small and medium-sized charging stations and newly built charging projects with limited budget, air cooled split charging terminals provide stable, practical and low-threshold fast charging solutions.
