Riverside Park in St. Cloud, MN, has recently introduced two new Level 2 charging stations at 1725 Kilian Boulevard, marking the initiation of St. Cloud’s ambitious vision to significantly enhance public electric vehicle charging access within the community. The addition of these charging stations aims to alleviate range anxiety and foster greater familiarity with electric vehicles among the local population.
In the rapidly evolving landscape of electric vehicle (EV) technology, visibility, reliability, and convenience are key. Our newest custom order, the DC-60T-DN-BCD Vehicle Charging Station Timer, has been developed specifically for powering cars, vehicles, and public charging stations—providing an intelligent, user-friendly way to track charging time.
This innovative timer serves as a visual indicator for EV owners to monitor how much time remains on their charging session. Once power is applied, the DC-60T-DN-BCD automatically begins counting down from a preset value, which can be easily configured through rotary set switches located on the bottom of the unit. The switches allow for precise time settings in hours and minutes, making it simple for municipalities or charging station operators to define standard charging durations.
When activated, the bright six-inch LED display clearly communicates remaining charge time and power status, visible from up to 300 feet away. This ensures that drivers can easily check their charging progress without approaching the station—enhancing both convenience and safety.
Here’s a closer look at some of the key features that make the DC-60T-DN-BCD a standout solution:
- Automatic Power-On Start – Begins countdown immediately upon power-up, ideal for card-activated public charging stations.
- High-Visibility 6-Inch LED Digits – Easily viewable even in bright outdoor conditions, ensuring drivers can see the timer at a glance.
- Durable IP-66 Aluminum Enclosure – Built for outdoor environments, fully weatherproof and corrosion-resistant.
- Flexible Mounting Options – Includes optional mounting rails for pole installations, as used in municipal setups.
- Adjustable Countdown Range – Programmable up to 99:59 hours, suitable for a wide range of charging applications.
- Visual End-of-Cycle Alert – When the countdown reaches zero, the display flashes to indicate that the charging time is complete.
These stations feature the DC-Digital DC-60T-DN-BCD timer, helping the city advance its forward-thinking sustainability initiatives. The project marks an important step in St. Cloud’s commitment to expanding electric vehicle infrastructure and encouraging greater EV adoption among residents.
When a driver swipes their card to begin charging, the timer powers on and starts counting down automatically. The clear, easy-to-read display shows that the vehicle’s charging cycle has begun, offering reassurance that the system is functioning and that the paid charging session is active. Once the countdown expires, the display flashes, signaling that the user’s allotted charging time has ended.
The DC-60T-DN-BCD not only enhances user experience but also adds a professional, modern touch to public charging stations. Its combination of industrial durability, clean design, and operational simplicity makes it the ideal choice for municipalities, businesses, and organizations seeking to expand EV charging access in their communities.
