Industry and Specialized Environments
Vessel charging at ports, loading dock chargers, airport infrastructure, 240kW+ industrial systems. Designed for extreme conditions and 24/7 operation.
Challenges in specialized infrastructure
Why is charging at ports, airports and industrial sites different from an office?
- Extreme environmental conditions: salt spray, dust, humidity, variable temps. Standard ratings (IP54) don't survive.
- Brutal power needs: a port might need 500+ kW simultaneous for 3 vessel charging. Requires dedicated substation.
- 24/7 operation with zero tolerance for downtime: a 30-min failure can halt €100k+ loading ops. No downtime margin.
- Specialized certifications: IP65 (waterproof), IEC 61851 (charge safety), DNV/ABS (vessels), airport-specific regs.
- Legacy system integration: 20-year-old equipment speaking no modern protocols, but must coexist with new infrastructure.

Frequently asked questions
What certifications does a port charger need?
IP65 (splash/immersion resistance), IEC 61851 (electrical safety), IACS (DNV/ABS if for vessels). Local environmental compliance. Our equipment is pre-certified.
What's the difference between industrial and commercial chargers?
Commercial: 7-50kW, controlled environment, IP54. Industrial: 50-240kW, extreme environment, IP65, redundancy, critical SLA. Scale, durability, warranties differ completely.
How do you manage vessel charging at a sports marina?
50-100kW dock-mounted charger with marine-grade connectors (submersible if needed). IRIS monitors vessel battery state. Integration with berthing system to auto-dispatch charging.
What's the max power I can install at an industrial facility?
Depends on available substation: typically 250-500kW (multiple 50-100kW chargers). Requires dedicated power engineering. We design to spec.
How does charging management work without permanent internet?
IRIS stores locally, syncs when connected (fiber, 4G). Auto-failover: if internet drops, charging continues. Offline audit syncs after. Comms redundancy is critical.
What maintenance do industrial chargers need in extreme conditions?
Preventive every 6mo: salt/dust cleaning, contact inspection, isolation tests. Corrective when IRIS detects anomaly. <30min response SLA. Warranty included.
How do you integrate with legacy systems (20-year-old equipment)?
Modbus/OPC-UA as bridge. We translate old protocols to modern. You don't touch the legacy equipment. They coexist seamlessly. Case-specific engineering.
