DC Grid
safe - precise - legal metrology compliant
The AST DC Meter is the innovative solution for continuous measurement of energy.
Based on our in-house developed 3D-Hall ASIC (AST proprietary), our DC Meter enables a continuously highly precise and bidirectional measurement of transferred energy.
This impressive performance makes the DC energy meter particularly suitable for use in DC fast and ultra-fast charging stations in the passenger car segment as well as in megawatt charging systems.
