Passway EV is an innovative and robust dual electric vehicle (EV) charging pillar that seamlessly integrates high-performance area lighting with fast charging capabilities. Designed to provide up to two 22 kW fast charging sockets, Passway EV enables rapid charging for electric fleets while simultaneously offering excellent illumination to ensure user safety. The lighting helps users easily connect to the charger and clearly identify any trip hazards, such as trailing cables, during nighttime or low-light conditions.
The luminaire features sophisticated optics that deliver superb area illumination with high uniformity and low glare, minimizing light pollution with less than 2% upward light emission. On-site adjustment is made easy through an onboard selector switch, allowing users to toggle between area and pathway lighting distributions. The system offers advanced safety and convenience with integrated emergency lighting options and SmartScan Radar sensors discreetly hidden behind the cover, along with photocell options for enhanced functionality.
Connectivity is comprehensive, with built-in Ethernet port, Wi-Fi, and optional 4G capability that supports back-office management and remote control, facilitated by an optional SIM card. The charger includes a simple RFID antenna standard for secure user access control. Custom colors are also available on request, allowing for tailored aesthetic integration.
Passway EV is surface-mounted with an IP54 rating, ensuring durability in outdoor environments. The charging system supports twin sockets at 7.4 kW and 22 kW speeds, with metering compliant with the MID (Measuring Instruments Directive). Recommended supply cables include 3-core or 5-core 16 mm². Internal protection is provided by two 40 A Type A 30 mA 2-pole or 4-pole RCBOs, complemented by residual current devices (RCD) at the source for enhanced safety.
In terms of lighting performance, the system offers lumen outputs of up to 1,495 lm for area lighting and 780 lm for pathway lighting, with efficacies of 59.8 LL/CW and 55.7 LL/CW respectively. The LED lighting operates at a colour rendering index (CRI) of 70+ and is available in warm 2700 K or neutral 4000 K colour temperatures. The LEDs have a rated life of 100,000 hours (L70/B10). Emergency lighting is maintained with a lumen output of 190 lm for up to three hours, powered by a Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) battery, ensuring safety during power interruptions.
Overall, Passway EV is a cutting-edge solution that combines fast EV charging with high-quality, energy-efficient lighting, making it ideal for outdoor car parks, commercial areas, and public spaces requiring safe, reliable charging and illumination.
