Guided by design

The innovative wall mount is the solid foundation of the
INCH Core charging station. With multiple directions of
cable access, it allows for a variety of mounting options,
including uneven surfaces.

Durable and robust

A reinforced honeycomb structure ensures the charger’s
structural integrity up to the IK10 rating. The housing is dust and
water resistant, making the device suitable for outdoor use,
brushing off adverse weather conditions at an IPX 56 rating.

Dynamic load
management

INCH Core Load Guard is a smart sensor that provides real-time
consumption data from the grid connection point to the INCH
Core charger for Dynamic Load Management. Using own
measurements or acting as a Smart Meter gateway, Load Guard
ensures EV Charging power will never exceed the local limits.

INCH Core Load Guard

Unlock your INCH Core’s full potential by pairing it with a
INCH Core Load Guard and enabling the Dynamic Load
Management feature.

Wireless is the
new robust

Sub1GHz wireless communication technology provides a reliable
data transmission to the charger over long distance and
concrete walls, while energy harvesting capability allows
hassle-free installation.

Interactive charging

Charge your vehicle in harmony with the charging grid,
utilizing the optimal balancing between cost,
performance and flexibility.

Interactive charging
responds to the grid
conditions

Run clusters of charging stations with a peace in mind. Utilising
dynamic power management technology and AI, a group of
chargers can balance the available charging power between
chargers, autonomously responding to building power
consumption changes and grid conditions.
