IEC 62196-1 Compliant EV Charging Interface Mechanical Load & Connector Test Machine

Standard: according to IEC 62196-1:2022.

Samples and restrictions: Charging interface.

Application:

The structure of the charging interface should make it easy to insert and remove the charging gun, and should prevent the charging gun from falling out of the socket during normal use. Check whether the maximum force required to pull the charging gun out of the appliance socket is within the range specified by the standard. It is also used to check whether the maximum force required to insert the charging gun into the appliance socket is within the range specified by the standard.

Test principle:

Maximum pull-out force of the socket: Apply the maximum pull-out force specified by the standard (the total force of the main weight, additional weight, hook (clamping device), and test plug) to the test plug, and the plug should come out of the socket.

The force for inserting the charging gun into the socket: Place the charging gun vertically downward, place the main weight according to the standard on the charging gun, and then use a 0.8kg weight to freely drop from a height of 5cm to impact the main weight. The charging gun should be inserted into the socket. to the required position of the contact.

Structure and features:

This device consists of the clamping device installed under the top plate A, the main weight F, the additional weight G and the test plug C. The frame of this device is compatible with GB/T20234.1 Figure 5 and GB11918.4 Figure 102, including a horizontal charging interface mechanical load test, locking device test and insertion and withdrawal force test.

Note:

The adjustable clamp is used, which can be switched between vertical and horizontal directions, and can clamp all kinds of products; the D clamp is replaced by a hanging ring, which is more convenient to operate; the main weight is directly counterweighted, without the need for a bracket.

Usage environment: Working temperature 5-35℃, humidity 30%-90%.
