Battery service equipment
from Bosch
The battery: center for voltage supply in
innovative vehicle components

The battery service presents demanding challenges for

the testers used today. No voltage spikes that can result in
sensor malfunctions may occur during charging. Bosch battery
chargers allow starter batteries to be charged carefully even
while installed. High power reserves translate into successful
starting assistance under all temperature conditions.

When testing the state of the battery, flexibility is decisive:

Bosch battery testers allow both 12-V starter batteries and
alternators with a rated output of 12 V to be tested quickly
and easily.

Modern test equipment strengthens the 

workshop’s expertise

The extent of complex electrical and electronic systems in-

creases with every new vehicle generation. Such systems are
increasingly replacing mechanical and hydraulic components.
The additional driving comfort and product quality enjoyed
by customers presents totally new demands on the capabili-
ties of the automobile workshop.

 Did you know?

Since 2009, the Euro 5 Standard has required that vehicle

manufacturers provide technical repair information via
their online portals for all independent workshops. Orig-
inal manufacturer data for diagnosis, service, repair and
maintenance has been available to independent work-
shops since then. With the Bosch PassThru software and
the software from the respective vehicle manufacturer, it
is possible to use the original information from the manu-
facturer for diagnosis in independent workshops.

A few steps must be considered for reprogramming.

It is important to ensure sufficient battery voltage on
the vehicle. Reprogramming requires up to 90 ampere
during continuous operation. An interruption of the con-
nection during the Bosch Euro 5 installation or the repro-
gramming can damage the control unit!
