Direct from our precision manufacturing facility: heavy-duty split-power cabinets and multi-standard AC/DC terminals engineered for the Latin American market.
Why split-type centralized power architectures have become the mandatory cornerstone for Latin America's leading electric vehicle ecosystem.
Chile stands at the undeniable forefront of electromobility across the Western Hemisphere. The Santiago public metropolitan transit network, RED Movilidad, operates over 2,000 pure electric heavy-duty transit buses—representing the largest municipal battery-electric fleet outside of mainland China. However, this massive transition has revealed profound structural limitations within traditional standalone dual-gun integrated DC chargers.
When dozens of 350kWh-to-450kWh transit buses return to depots in Rinconada, Maipú, or Peñalolén between 22:00 and 01:00, conventional standalone charging pillars demand excessive physical footprint, high-voltage transformers at every individual stall, and rigid kilowatt allocations that lead to severe grid bottlenecks. A single 180kW standalone unit sitting idle next to a fully charged bus represents stranded capacity that cannot assist an adjacent vehicle requiring rapid dispatch.
Our split-type charging architecture specifically resolves this operational friction. By separating the high-density power conversion stack (the central power cabinet) from the compact user dispensing satellites, fleet managers can place a single 720kW or 480kW power unit inside an isolated, climate-controlled electrical substation room, routing high-amperage DC busbars out to 8, 10, or 12 low-profile dispensing pedestals along tight bus lanes.
Every charging station deployed within Chile must strictly adhere to the safety mandates enforced by the Superintendencia de Electricidad y Combustibles (SEC) under the Reglamento de Seguridad de las Instalaciones de Consumo de Energía Eléctrica, specifically Pliego Técnico Normativo RIC N°15 (Infraestructura de recarga de vehículos eléctricos).
The copper and lithium corridors across Antofagasta, Calama, and Atacama operate in some of the most aggressive environmental conditions on Earth. Mining concession operators (such as Codelco, BHP, SQM) are rapidly converting utility light vehicles, worker transport vans, and underground haulers to pure electric power.
Chile's updated Estrategia Nacional de Electromovilidad mandates 100% zero-emission light and medium vehicle sales by 2035, alongside 100% electric public transit bus sales by 2035 and freight mining machinery by 2040. Achieving these aggressive milestones requires establishing an ultra-fast charging backbone along the 3,000+ kilometer Ruta 5 (Pan-American Highway).
Highway service stations operated by Copec Voltex, Enel X Way, and independent charging point operators (CPOs) cannot rely on static 50kW or 120kW chargers. With the rapid influx of 800V passenger EVs (BYD Seal, Porsche Taycan, Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV6) and heavy commercial freight trucks, public plazas require dynamic split-type systems capable of delivering up to 360kW-400kW on a single liquid-cooled gun when an ultra-fast passenger car pulls in, or redistributing that energy into four 90kW streams when multiple vehicles charge simultaneously.
By deploying our central split systems, highway concessions maximize revenue per square meter, eliminate queue times during holiday transit surges between Santiago and Viña del Mar or La Serena, and ensure full backward and forward compatibility from 200V legacy battery architectures up to 1000V next-generation commercial packs.
Analyzing the architectural shift toward dynamic power allocation matrices and how tier-1 Chinese supply chains reduce total cost of ownership (TCO).
Global EV infrastructure is pivoting from "one dispenser, one converter" to central power reservoirs. Using solid-state contactor switching matrices, our central cabinet routes 30kW or 40kW power blocks with millisecond granularity.
If a logistics van with a battery state of charge (SoC) at 85% tapers its demand from 120kW down to 30kW, the central intelligence unit immediately reallocates the remaining 90kW to an adjoining bay, eliminating stranded power.
We incorporate high-frequency SiC power rectifiers delivering ultra-wide voltage regulation from 150V to 1000V DC. Operating efficiency peaks at 96.5%, significantly cutting heat dissipation overhead.
For heavy Chilean transit operations consuming megawatt-hours daily, a 3% efficiency advantage equates to tens of thousands of dollars in utility savings annually, dramatically shortening fleet capital payback periods.
Situated within China's premier electronics manufacturing cluster, our 10,000m² factory executes in-house SMT PCB assembly, robotized laser sheet metal fabrication, automatic copper busbar machining, and automated potting.
Every single power stack undergoes 100% full-load burn-in testing under elevated temperature chambers for 72 continuous hours, providing Chilean EPC contractors with zero-defect field reliability.
| Evaluation Parameter | Traditional Integrated Dual-Gun DC Charger | HizonSun Intelligent Split-Type DC Charging System | Impact on Chilean Operations |
|---|---|---|---|
| Power Granularity & Sharing | Static output (e.g., fixed 90kW + 90kW or 120kW + 60kW). Unused energy is stranded. | Central dynamic matrix pooling (allocates 30kW/40kW modular steps to any active port). | Increases daily fleet throughput by 38% in high-turnover Santiago transit depots. |
| Parking Footprint & Safety | Bulky high-voltage rectifier cabinets placed right beside active vehicle parking spots. | Ultra-slim satellites at bays; high-voltage conversion safely isolated in an MV switchgear room. | Prevents high-value asset destruction in tight bus garages or mining yard collisions. |
| Maintenance & Down-time | Converter failure shuts down the entire physical charging bay; technicians must work outdoors. | Hot-swappable N+1 redundant power modules; maintenance done indoors while dispensers charge. | Guarantees 99.5% uptime SLA required by Chilean public transport concession contracts. |
| Cable Weight & Operator Ergonomics | Heavy unassisted 250A/300A cables causing fatigue or drops during continuous depot handling. | Available counter-balanced overhead booms and ergonomic liquid-cooled 500A CCS2 ultra-light cables. | Reduces worker strain, eliminates cable dragging damage on abrasive industrial asphalt. |
| Grid Connection Complexity | Requires multiple individual MV/LV distribution drops and separate circuit protection. | Single centralized 3-phase AC input feed with integrated harmonic mitigation & metering. | Lowers civil engineering, trenching, and SEC TE-1 certification costs by up to 32%. |
