End-of-line tester for EV chargers

Every charger leaves production with a test report.

Easy Chester EOL runs the same automated end-of-line test on every AC or DC charging station before it leaves production, integrated into your production line and MES – instead of manual checks with separate instruments.1

Used in production – for legal-metrology end-of-line testing and with customer-owned power electronics.

What for
Charger manufacturers who must release every AC or DC unit with the same documented end-of-line test.
What it does
Runs one automated sequence per unit and stores one test report per serial number, linked to your MES and production control.
Not for
Commissioning and inspection at the installation site – that is Easy Chester Micro or Ultimate.

A defect that slips through end-of-line testing reaches the installer – and comes back as a service call.

Production test planning

Define the checks required for production release.

The EVSE End-of-Line Testing application covers acceptance criteria, cycle time, traceability and rework. The Easy Chester EOL hardware follows those requirements.

Standalone operation and factory integration.

Operators run the guided workflow on the device. Automated lines control the test through the agreed production interface.

Product boundary: exact charging technologies, connector families, checks, parameters and production interfaces remain configuration- and release-dependent.

One EOL workflow. Two power configurations.

Easy Chester EOL HPC

The same EOL workflow for higher-power tests, with the required external power and safety equipment.

Also specify operating points, duty cycle, switching and cooling.

Easy Chester EOL integration

Link each test result to the manufactured unit.

The approved test profile runs for the identified charger. Easy Chester EOL links step results, measurements and the pass/fail verdict to its serial number, variant and configuration revision. Profile selection, sequence control, reporting and data handover fit your production line.

High-power test-cell architecture

Extend the production test to higher power with Easy Chester EOL HPC.

EOL HPC adds the source, load, switching, protection and cooling required by the charger and production cycle to the shared charging test workflow.

Charging interface

Exercises the released connector, low-level states, communication and product parameters.

Safety controller

The system coordinates prerequisites, interlocks, switching state and cooling readiness before it enables the test under controlled conditions. We define for the project how the system shuts down and reaches its safe state.

Power hardware

Source, load or bidirectional equipment is integrated for the defined operating points and duty cycle.

Production integration

Unit identity, sequence control, verdicts and reports connect to the production line through the released RS-232 interface and SCPI commands; higher-level factory interfaces remain project-specific.

Project-specific power architecture

Size the test cell for your charger and production cycle.

We specify electrical, thermal, timing and facility requirements for the device under test (DUT) and production cycle separately.

Power profileContinuous power, peak power, duration, energy and repetition
External hardwareSource, load or bidirectional equipment and control boundary
Switching and protectionControlled enable, interlocks, emergency stop, discharge and safe state
Cooling and facilityThermal recovery, cooling circuits, supply and installation conditions
Factory processCycle time, operator role, product handling, MES and rework route

Optional production metrology

Combine production test results and calibration evidence in one record.

The Calimera GUI and a project-specific AC or DC power meter add a reference comparison before shipment to Easy Chester EOL. Functional release and metrology-oriented verification belong to the same product identity.

For EOL HPC, coordinate reference measurement with the defined high-power operating points. Measurement range, uncertainty, traceability and the released calibration procedure must be specified for the production cell.

Configuration inputs

Configure hardware and interfaces for your test plan.

Use the production requirements checklist to define acceptance, cycle time and records. These inputs determine the EOL configuration:

DUT and connectors

Complete EVSE or defined module, connector families, charging technologies, firmware and market versions.

Power and test cell

Required operating points, source or load equipment, duty cycle, switching, cooling and safety interfaces.

Line-control and data interfaces

RS-232 with SCPI commands, unit identification, sequence control and result handover; MES and database integration remain project-specific.

Optional metrology

Calimera GUI, AC/DC power meter, measurement range, uncertainty, traceability and the approved procedure for the target market.

Frequently asked questions

Easy Chester EOL and EOL HPC questions

What is Easy Chester EOL?

Easy Chester EOL runs repeatable EVSE end-of-line tests in production. It performs approved function, charging communication and parameter checks, evaluates the results and links the results to the tested product identity.

What does an EVSE end-of-line test verify?

It verifies the completed charging product or a defined production module against released factory acceptance criteria before release.

Can one system handle different charger variants?

Store product and test configurations for the charger variants. Select the approved profile through the production identity or operator workflow to apply the matching test logic consistently.

How is the result linked to the manufactured unit?

The project can associate the test with approved identity fields such as serial number, variant, firmware, production order and timestamp.

Can Easy Chester EOL be integrated with production control or MES?

The production interface uses RS-232 with SCPI commands for straightforward line integration.

What is the difference between Easy Chester EOL and EOL HPC?

Easy Chester EOL is the compact production path for repeatable EVSE function, communication and parameter verification. EOL HPC adds the project-specific source, load, cooling, switching, safety and high-power test-cell integration required by DC fast-charging products.

What is Easy Chester EOL HPC?

Easy Chester EOL HPC is the Easy Chester production system for repeatable end-of-line verification of DC fast-charging and high-power EVSE products. It coordinates charging-interface tests, safety-relevant production checks, external power hardware, automation and traceable results.

What can be the device under test?

Define the DUT as the complete charger or a production module such as the charging outlet, communication controller, power stage or metering path.

Does Easy Chester EOL HPC have one universal voltage, current or power rating?

No universal combined rating should be inferred. Voltage, current, continuous and peak power, duration, energy, cooling and facility requirements are defined independently. The approved project configuration selects compatible hardware.

Can the system test the charger at defined power operating points?

Yes, when the configured production cell includes the required source, load or bidirectional power hardware. The test sequence can establish approved operating points, verify the charger response and preserve the measurements and verdicts.

How does the system support safe high-power operation?

The production cell is configured around approved prerequisites, interlocks, switching, cooling readiness, controlled enable, emergency stop, shutdown and safe-state behaviour.

¹ Scope

Safety tests, charging interfaces, protocols and test loads depend on the Easy Chester model, the software release and the options you order. A PASS result documents the checks performed in that configuration; it does not replace your inspection plan. The quotation confirms the scope for your stations.
