BSU2-50B BATTERY SUPPORT UNIT
Provides a constant voltage to prevent loss of data and possible damage to control units during software updates, and module reprogramming as well as diagnostic processes when in a Key On, Engine Off state.
BSU2-50B can be used with any 12V automotive battery including AGM and GEL
When the battery is charged the BSU is a regulated power supply to sustain accessory loads and offset parasitic drain
Designed for use in the workshop and compatible with most diagnostic trolleys
Reverse polarity protection
Output current display
Supplied with 5m IEC power lead (BSU2-50-LS)
Also supplied with 5m output leads
CSU2-50B COMBO SUPPORT UNIT
CSU2-50B can be used with any 12V automotive battery including AGM, GEL and LiFeP04.
In CSU mode, when the battery is charged the CSU is a regulated power supply to sustain accessory loads and offset parasitic drain with battery state detection, ensuring safe prolonged use.
In BSU mode a continuous power source is supplied to the battery until physically removed.
Output current display.
Reverse polarity protection.
Disconnect detection.
Comes with 16ft (4.8M) lead set and 8’ (2.4M) C15 to 5-15P power cord.
SSU2-50B SHOWROOM SUPPORT UNIT
This low profile (3.5”) battery conditioner has been designed specifically for car showrooms.
The intelligent sensing in the SSU2-50B determines exactly when support is required to minimize unnecessary noise and power consumption.
Battery state detection, ensuring safe prolonged use.
Output current display.
Reverse polarity protection.
Disconnect detection.
Supplied with 5m extension lead (SSU-EXT), jump start clamp leads (JLR-BLADE) and clamps for JLR Discovery Sport and Evoque (BSU-CLIP)
SSU2-50/S SILENT SHOWROOM SUPPORT UNIT
The intelligent sensing in the SSU2-50/S determines exactly when support is required to minimize unnecessary noise and power consumption.
Battery state detection, ensuring safe prolonged use.
Output current display.
Reverse polarity protection.
Disconnect detection.
Supplied with 5m extension lead (SSU-EXT), jump start clamp leads (JLR-BLADE) and clamps for JLR Discovery Sport and Evoque (BSU-CLIP)
Silent operation
CDU1 BANK ADAPTOR
This is a complementary product to the MPL50 charger and MPL50-Li charger that manages charging of a bank of up to 5 batteries.
It can be either placed under the MPL50/MPL50-Li charger or situated remotely by use of optional link lead.
Power is provided from the MPL50/MPL50-Li. When a battery is disconnected the unit will turn off power to the output making the leads safe from accidental shorts.
The 5 output connectors are compatible with Traction standard yellow 50 Amp lead sets.
The module input is a red 50 Amp connector. A yellow to red interface lead is provided ensuring correct connection.
The status of each channel is indicated by an LED above each connector.
Units can be daisy-chained allowing up to 17 batteries to be connected simultaneously.
BSU2-50C BATTERY SUPPORT UNIT
Provides a stable voltage and up to 50 amps of fully regulated power to prevent loss of charge and damage to the battery.
BSU2-50C can be used with any 12V automotive battery including AGM, GEL and lithium.
This unit closes the contacts on lithium batteries.
Provides a constant voltage to prevent loss of data and possible damage to control units during software updates, and module reprogramming as well as diagnostic processes when in a Key On, Engine Off state.
Designed to be wall, ramp or trolley mounted
