The Autodiagger AD500 is a plug-and-play, all-in-one test bench specifically developed for the professional testing of modern starter motors and generators (alternators). This equipment is the ideal choice for service centers where fast, accurate, and reliable diagnostics for both 12V and 24V systems are essential.
The AD500 test bench combines the latest technologies with a user-friendly design, ensuring the highest level of testing capability:
All-in-One Solution: It combines the complete electrical testing of starter motors and alternators in a single device.
High Power Load: It features a digitally controlled, high-precision load unit, capable of providing up to 300 A load on 12V systems, and 150 A on 24V systems.
Precise Load Control: The testing occurs in 1 A steps guaranteeing extremely precise measurements, eliminating false interpolation across the entire load range.
Modern Alternator Support: It is capable of testing all modern alternator types, including units with complex control systems, such as: COM, SIG, RLO, RVC, C, PD, DFM.
Advanced Protocol Compatibility: It provides full support for all types of BSS/BSD and LIN protocols, including the latest LIN GRC 24 Vis standard.
High-Speed Operation: The pulley speed is variable, reaching up to 6000 RPM, which simulates real operating conditions.
Integrated Oscilloscope: The built-in oscilloscope function enables automatic or manual testing of diode and stator components, providing visual troubleshooting.
Extensive Manufacturer Database: Access to a huge, containing over 1 million manufacturer references, database that can be continuously updated.
Start/Stop System Support: Specifically supports the latest Valeo start/stop generators (e.g., IST50C012, IST60C019, IST60C021, etc.).
The AD500 is a robust device designed for industrial environments, integrating modern computing elements to enhance reliability.
