Dover Fueling Solutions (DFS), part of Dover Corporation, launched the Wayne PWR DC fast charger (Wayne PWR). This new electric vehicle charger (EVC) “addresses critical market gaps in reliability and durability while offering an unmatched customer experience,” the company said.

According to Dover Fueling Solutions, the Wayne PWR is designed and manufactured in Austin, Texas, and is “National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) compliant and built to the highest standard of quality. The EVC is backed by DFS’s nationwide Wayne approved partner service network, offering remote diagnostics, proactive monitoring and heartbeat checks to ensure maximum uptime and quick maintenance.”

“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 EVCs through partners, we’ve developed and are manufacturing Wayne PWR right here in Austin. This direct control over production ensures that our EVC meets the highest standards of reliability.”

Wayne PWR features enhanced weather protection, vandal-proofing, UV and scratch resistance, and temperature reliability, the company said. These features ensure that Wayne PWR “remains operational in even the most extreme conditions.”

Dover said that Wayne PWR also offers a comprehensive solution that enhances the consumer experience. According to the company, the charger:

• Is equipped with a digital touchscreen that displays power levels, remaining time-to-full-charge, energy consumption, and more.
• Features easy and secure payments through the POS-agnostic PAX payment platform plus integration with the Wayne iX Pay 2 Payment Platform and Plug and Charge coming soon.
• Is future-proof, with plans for customizable media options and seamless integration with loyalty programs, allowing convenience store retailers to offer personalized experiences that drive consumer engagement and revenue.

“We’re giving businesses access to all the tools they need to enhance operations and consumer satisfaction for EV drivers with Wayne PWR,” said Kendra Keller, vice president and general manager of North America at DFS. “From setting their own pricing to real-time monitoring, they’ll have full control over their charging infrastructure, supported by the expertise, innovation and technology that DFS is known for delivering.”
