Abstract:
An electric vehicle charging station that uses a liquid cooled charging cable is described. The charging station includes a charging port that is configured to connect to a liquid cooled charging cable. The liquid cooled charging cable includes a cooling loop where a return side of the cooling loop is a warm side. The charging station includes a heat exchanger that transfers heat from the warm side of the cooling loop. The charging station includes a pump to pump a cool side of the liquid through the cooling loop. The charging station includes a module that causes the following to be performed in response to a startup sequence of the electric vehicle charging station: iteratively perform operations of operating the pump at increasing speeds and measuring corresponding pressure output until the speed of the pump is at its normal capacity.

Claim (Index 8):
A method in an electric vehicle charging station, comprising:\n operating a pump of the electric vehicle charging station at a first speed, wherein the pump is pumping liquid of a liquid cooled charging cable through a cooling loop, and wherein the first speed is lower than a speed of the pump operating at its normal speed; measuring pressure of the liquid being pumped by the pump operating at the first speed; determining whether the monitored pressure exceeds a threshold; responsive to determining that the monitored pressure does not exceed the threshold, proceeding in an iterative manner of operating the pump at a second speed and monitoring pressure of the pump operating at the second speed for a next iteration, until the monitored pressure of the pump is at its normal capacity.
