Compact and solid high-frequency charger with versatile application. An "all-rounder" for the workshop, service station, and battery retail outlets. The powerful battery charger is suitable for charging all 12 V- or 24 V- lead-acid batteries, particularly batteries with fixed electrolyte gel batteries or fleece batteries / AGM).

The floating-mode operation of the BAT 490, with intensities of current up to 90 A, stabilizes the vehicle electrical system during diagnosis and reprogramming of control units, this making the device essential in every modern workshop.

Product features of high-frequency charger BAT 490

  • Charging mode for 12 V- / 24 V- lead-acid batteries
  • Automatic detection of 12 V- or 24 V- System
  • Variable charge current intensity in the expert mode (0 – 90 A)
  • Shorter charging times due to optimized charging process
  • Infinitely variable, regulated charging current
  • Charging at vehicle electrical system
  • Floating-mode operation and backup mode
  • Sawtooth trickle charge
  • Protection against polarity inversion, overcharge and short circuits
  • Solid housing

Efficient work is enabled by the new working modes:

  • Standard program for simple and rapid charging
  • Expert program with flexible charge parameters

Radio codes and control unit programming remain unaffected.
