Veton durability FAQ

Durability is not just an IP rating. The charger stands outside through heat, cold, rain and UV. It has to keep working. It also has to still look right on the building, five and ten years in.

Built to stay outside.

The Veton® charger is treated as an outdoor object on the building. Materials, structure, cable and service access are designed together.

The key choice is splitting the product in two. The charging point stays outside. The electronics, protections and controller live in a separate box indoors.

That removes the failure pattern of conventional outdoor chargers. No condensation on the boards. No heat stress. No yellowed plastic. No full-unit swap when one part fails.

What makes a Veton charger durable?

• Magnelis steel structure. A 3 mm Magnelis frame with 2 mm outer panels. The zinc-aluminium-magnesium coating self-heals on cut edges and scratches.
• Facade-quality powder coat. The fine-texture lacquer used on architectural cladding, applied over the Magnelis substrate.
• IP65 / IK10. Dust-tight, sealed against water jets, rated for the highest impact level in the IEC standard.
• Industrial-grade charging controller. The same controller class used in OEM and infrastructure projects, not a hobby chipset.
• Indoor electronics. The charging electronics sit in a small box inside the building, away from heat, cold, condensation and UV.
• Modular service. Replaceable components. When a part fails, only that part is replaced.
• Five-year on-site warranty as standard.

Why does moisture matter?

Moisture is the main enemy of outdoor electronics. A single sealed outdoor box has to fight condensation every night and every storm. The Veton® charger sidesteps that. The outdoor object holds no sensitive electronics. The indoor box sits in a normal building environment.

Why does serviceability matter?

A charger you can service has a different lifecycle from one you replace whole. On a Veton® installation, the controller, the protections and the energy meter all sit in the indoor box. Each can be swapped on its own. The outdoor object stays in place.

That means lower long-term cost and less downtime. No lifting paving, landscaping or facade to change a part.

How does Veton differ from a typical sealed wallbox?

Most outdoor chargers are one sealed box. Electronics, controller and connectors all live inside the same outdoor housing. When one part fails, the whole unit usually has to come off the wall. Then the wall has to be patched, repainted and refinished to match.

The Veton® charger is built the other way around. The electronics live in an indoor cabinet. Only the outdoor object stays outside. The electronics never see heat, cold, condensation or UV. A technician swaps the part that failed, not the charger.

The result is longer outdoor life and a lower total cost of ownership.
