"Our Pulsar family was born from a need to make EV charging smarter, faster and better," said Enric Asunción, CEO of Wallbox. "Today, we see an opportunity to reinvent the charging experience for shared spaces with Pulsar Pro, setting a new standard for reliability, cost-effectiveness and intelligent charging."
Pulsar Pro takes the powerful capabilities of Wallbox's Pulsar Plus charger and adds new features optimized for multi-user environments:
- RFID access control provides intuitive user authentication
- Dynamic Power Sharing manages energy distribution across up to 50 chargers
- Mywallbox software or partner platforms thanks to OCPP compatibility enables Pulsar Pro to meet the business needs in any commercial environment
- ISO 15118 readiness, ensuring secure and future-ready charging capabilities
In addition to its intelligent charging capabilities, Pulsar Pro delivers reliability and ease of use. Its robust casing meets NEMA Type 4 requirements to protect against impacts, water and dust. An advanced proprietary platform enables faster processing and better performance, while a compact, attractive design with halo lighting shows charging status at a glance.
For installers and charge point operators, Pulsar Pro is built to save time and reduce costs. An optional OCPP factory configuration streamlines installation, while Wallbox's myWallbox business portal enables remote charger management, payment processing, user access controls and reporting. A new partner API also allows for custom integrations and compatibility with demand response programs.
"With EV charging infrastructure becoming essential for multi-family and business properties, we're excited to deliver a solution truly built for shared spaces," said Erik Fogelberg, General Manager of North America at Wallbox. "Pulsar Pro exemplifies our mission of making EV charging accessible to everyone, including those living in multifamily homes. Pulsar Pro provides a solution that is efficient, connected and designed specifically to cater for shared spaces."
Pulsar Pro, the Wallbox charger being used in over 140 multifamily sites as part of the recently announced Washington State Grant, is now available for order through Wallbox's network of certified installers and distributors across the United States. To learn more, visit wallbox.com.
Pulsar Pro is certified by UL, FCC approved and ENERGY STAR certified.

Bringing state of the art fast charging to North America, Supernova 180 is Wallbox’s third generation DC fast EV charger designed exclusively for North America, following the successful rollout of Supernova 60 and Supernova 150 in Europe.
