Dover Fueling Solutions’ new Wayne PWR DC fast EV charger


A sign of the times? Dover Fueling Solutions, a well-known manufacturer of gas pumps and related products, has launched a new EV fast charger.

The Wayne PWR is designed and manufactured in Austin, Texas for the US market, and is NEVI-compliant. Wayne PWR’s cloud-based charge station management system allows owners to monitor the status of their chargers in real time, and the company’s nationwide Wayne approved partner service network provides remote diagnostics and proactive monitoring and maintenance.

The Wayne PWR is based on a cabinet/satellite architecture. Each cabinet can support up to four satellite units. Maximum charging power of the cabinet is 640 kW, and maximum power delivered by each connector is 400 kW. Each charging unit features a retractable cable, a 12-inch touchscreen and a POS payment terminal.

In some ways, the new charger sounds like a work in progress. It currently supports CCS1, but support for SAE J3400 (NACS) is “coming soon.” Also promised for the future: Plug & Charge support and liquid-cooled cables.

“One of the biggest challenges in the EV charging industry is reliability,” said Chad Bass, Director of Product Management for EV Charging at DFS. “Unlike competitors who white-label EV chargers through partners, we’ve developed and are manufacturing Wayne PWR right here in Austin. This direct control over production ensures that our charger meets the highest standards of reliability.”
