Delta’s 30 kW Wireless Charging System for electric forklifts, heavy-load AGVs, and yard trucks
Delta has recently obtained Federal Communications Commission (FCC) approval and METus* certification. The M∞Vair 30 kW model boasts 95% contactless power conversion efficiency and can be applied to large industrial e-vehicles, such as electric forklifts, heavy-load AGVs, yard trucks, and airport ground support equipment.

Dave Morse, Vice President of Delta Americas’ Industrial and Automation, said, “As Industry 4.0 continues to
evolve, Delta has leveraged its core competence in high-efficiency power electronics to develop innovative
wireless charging systems capable of supporting the surging demand for electric forklifts and AGVs in smart factories. Our state-of-the-art 30kW wireless charging model is ready to enhance productivity and energy
efficiency of electric industrial vehicles used in the logistics and manufacturing industries across the U.S.
market.”
Delta’s M∞Vair Series Wireless Charging Systems adopt industrial wireless charging technology, which is
licensed by WiTricity, a U.S. wireless charging technology company. The Series features 1 kW and 30 kW models, along with the 3.3 kW and 10 kW ones, expected to arrive later this year. Each model is composed of a primary unit, which is connected to the AC supply, and a secondary unit for battery connection in industrial vehicles.
The Series allows wireless charging over a gap of 20 mm to max. 150 mm for various batteries with 93% – 95% power conversion efficiency to reduce unnecessary energy waste for clients. The Series’ FCC and CE certifications are testaments to the safety and stability of its inductive coupling for power transmission and the use of the wireless communication Pad-to-Pad Link (PPL).
The PPL communication is developed exclusively by Delta for wireless electrical transferal. It successfully solves the cross-talk issue of WIFI devices and allows a secondary unit of the Series to communicate only with the primary unit at a distance of 200 mm, ensuring the control of the wireless transfer of 30 kW power. This innovation demonstrates both Delta’s capability of cutting-edge technologies and the reliability of our wireless charging solutions.
*Note: METus mark indicates that a product has met the minimum requirements of the applicable safety
standards. It also validates the product’s continued compliance with these standards as evidenced by
periodic factory follow-up inspections.
