FEV500 Fast DC EV Charging Station Analyzer with TruTest Software License

Fluke FLK-FEV500/CCS1 DC Charging Station Overview

The Fluke FLK-FEV500-CCS1/FPC is a DC EV charging station analyzer that helps technicians easily test and fix chargers for electric vehicles. It's an all-in-one device that can perform safety checks, test compatibility, and simulate charging, all through a CCS1 connection, without needing an actual EV present. This unit is designed for field use, offering guided testing, and clear pass/fail indicators to help maintenance teams keep chargers running, set them up quickly, and troubleshoot problems faster on commercial and fleet charging networks.

Specifications

• Connector type: CCS1 for fast DC EV charging station testing.

• Simulated charging load: up to 2 kW.

• Display: 7-inch TFT touchscreen, 1024 × 600, readable in bright outdoor conditions and operable with PPE gloves.

• Battery: customer-replaceable Li-ion battery with typical runtime of 10 hours.

• Charging: typical 3-hour recharge using a 65 W USB-C Power Delivery charger.

• Connectivity: USB-C, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.2, and GPS time synchronization.

• Case and portability: rugged wheeled hard case, approximately 26 kg total weight.

• Supported testing scope includes communication, performance, insulation resistance, low impedance, IMD, and residual voltage measurements.

Key Benefits

• Comprehensive Testing:Combines both performance and safety evaluations in a single instrument.
• Bulit‑In EV Simulation, No Extra Gear Required: Emulates an electric vehicle during testing, removing the need for load banks, actual EVs, or separate multifunction testers. Confirms charger functionality and performance by applying a simulated kW load that mirrors real charging behavior.
• Autotest Capability: Executes preset test routines automatically and provides straightforward pass/fail outcomes without changing test leads or using additional tools.
• Operation: Features a sunlight‑readable touchscreen with guided workflows for simple navigation and easy interpretation of results.
• CCS Compatibility: Works with CCS connectors for broad interoperability, offered in both CCS1 and CCS2 versions.
• Portable, Field‑Ready Design: Durable construction suited for on‑site use, powered by a removable rechargeable battery—no external power source needed.
• Automated Data Handling: Logs and organizes unique EVSE and connection‑point identifiers to simplify asset tracking.
• TruTest Integration: Supports streamlined documentation and reporting of all test results (license required).
• Fluke Premium Care: Covers repair, calibration, priority service, software updates and technical support.

Application Uses

• Commissioning newly installed fast DC charging stations before handoff to customers or site operators.

• Performing preventive maintenance checks to verify charger safety, communication, and power delivery.

• Troubleshooting field issues such as charging faults, communication errors, or intermittent performance problems.

• Validating interoperability across supported EVSE manufacturers in commercial, public, and fleet environments.

• Capturing repeatable test data and generating reports for service records, compliance, and maintenance planning.
