Product Overview & Charging Pathway
The YDCHARGE CCS1 to CHAdeMO Active DC Charging Adapter is developed for EV charging interoperability projects requiring CHAdeMO-equipped electric vehicles to operate seamlessly with CCS Combo 1 DC charging infrastructure. Unlike passive mechanical adapters, this product integrates an active communication conversion system to translate complex charging communication signals between different DC charging standards.
1. Protocol Conversion & High-Power DC Performance
Active PLC to CAN Conversion
Integrates embedded control electronics to convert CCS Combo 1 Power Line Communication (PLC) into CHAdeMO Controller Area Network (CAN) communication:
High-Current Power Throughput
Engineered for continuous high-power DC fast charging under heavy operating conditions:
- Rated Current: 300 A continuous DC
- High-Current Option: Up to 400 A (project-based configuration)
- Maximum Voltage: 1,000 V DC
*Actual performance is governed by vehicle BMS demand, station output capacity, and thermal limits.
Thermal Management & Safety Interruption
Integrates real-time thermal monitoring across critical electrical connection points. The control system continuously evaluates terminal temperature rise and triggers automatic charging interruption if thermal thresholds are exceeded, mitigating heat stress during high-current sessions.
2. Industrial Housing & Low-Resistance Conductive Path
Reinforced Composite Housing
Constructed with premium PC + PA66 + GF25% glass fiber reinforced engineering materials. This composite enclosure delivers exceptionally high mechanical strength, impact resistance, and flame-retardant structural integrity for heavy commercial use.
Low-Resistance Power Contacts
Internal power conductors utilize high-conductivity silver-plated copper alloy. The precision contact structure minimizes electrical contact resistance, lowers localized resistive heating, and maintains high-voltage insulation stability.
3. Primary Application Scenarios
EV Interoperability Projects
Allows CHAdeMO vehicles to access compatible CCS1 charging infrastructure in cross-standard regional deployment environments.
Fleet Charging Operations
Essential for commercial fleet operators managing CHAdeMO-equipped vehicles within CCS Combo 1 charging station networks.
