DC Meter
safe - precise - legal metrology compliant
The AST DC Meter is the innovative solution for continuous measurement of high currents and voltages in charging stations.
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 qualifies our DC Meter especially for use in fast and ultra-fast charging stations in the passenger car segment, as well as for megawatt charging systems.

A Technology with Great Potential
Our 3D Hall Technology creates the opportunity for accurate measurements in various current ranges. With a team of experienced developers, we are working to fully harness the capabilities of this technology and utilize it for measuring much larger or smaller currents.
Charging Infrastructure
For a reliable direct current charging in various applications, we offer variants in different power classes. From compact wallboxes to powerful megawatt charging systems – our technology provides the appropriate solution.
DC200
The DC200 is specifically optimized for use in DC wallboxes. This compact solution allows for precise measurements and efficient power monitoring to ensure reliable direct current charging of up to 200 amperes.
DC650
The DC650 is AST's solution for legally compliant fast charging stations in the higher power range. With advanced features and very high accuracy for currents up to 780 amperes, this is the proven choice for your application.
DC1500
With its impressive performance in the megawatt range, the DC1500 is designed for demanding applications. This advanced solution allows for charging EV trucks and buses with up to 1500 amperes at 1250 volts and is ideal for use in charging parks or commercial applications.
DC3000
The DC3000 is being developed for the upper range of current measurement, for example, in power supply buoys for cargo ships or for use in future charging parks. With its very high performance, it ensures that even high energy demands in demanding environments are measured with the highest accuracy.
Smart Grid
For the planning and control of smart grids in the future, measurements of much higher currents and voltages are required. The variants DC3000 and DC5000 will contribute to optimizing efficiency and sustainability in energy distribution through extremely precise measurements and secure power monitoring.
DC3000
In addition to its use in MCS, our current research and development efforts focus on the requirements of Smart Grids. With high accuracy and performance, we aim to enable precise measurements in large power grids as well as wind and solar parks. This contributes to intelligently controlling energy consumption.
DC5000
Our research in the field of smart grid measurement goes far beyond conventional solutions. Through continuous innovation and the commitment of our team, we are developing DC meter solutions that meet the requirements of the power grids of tomorrow.
