Bus and Truck Charging Stations Panel Trainer
Model Number: 746-01
Explore heavy vehicle charging station operation, diagnostics, and fault-finding at safe test voltages.
Overview
This trainer is the latest addition to our Hybrid and Electric Vehicle product range. Designed to complement the existing line-up, it is designed to illustrate the operation of commercial and on-board charging systems for electric buses and trucks.
The Heavy Vehicle Charging Stations Panel Trainer (746-01) provides students and instructors with the opportunity to demonstrate, investigate, and fault-find a simulation of a multi-vehicle heavy electric vehicle charging station.
The trainer is designed to illustrate the operation of public and private sector charging systems for buses and goods vehicles. The trainer provides a mimic of the electrical power flow(s) and includes test points at a safe voltage level to allow for investigation of electrical circuits. To facilitate the development of techniques in diagnostics and fault-finding skills, the panel includes a range of fault-insertion options to simulate typical real-world system malfunctions.
