2.1 Product Overview Product Overview SIVACON S1 is designed for installation in concrete compact stations. It is the link between the medium voltage ring of a local network and charging stations, charging columns or wallboxes of the charging infra- structure for electromobility. SIVACON S1 is scalable in power and size and, due to its modularity, supplies ideal conditions for the efficient setup of a compact station in a wide range of applications.
Description 2.2 Design Application Area SIVACON S1 supports the following: • Supply of charging connection points with electrical energy in the low-voltage power system from 11 kW to 400 kW. • Collection of relevant information and data on switching states, operating parameters and measured values and forwarding to a backend, for example, SICAM Navigator.
