Application

The Clore Automotive PRO-LOGIX 12/24V Flashing Power Supply and HD Battery Charger, No. PL6850, features two modes:

• PS Mode: Module reprogramming support, ADAS calibration support, on-vehicle repairs of electronic systems, and electrical system diagnosis. 
• Charge Mode: Charging of virtually any battery type found in today’s repair environment, from smaller vehicle batteries (40-60Ah) to large 4- and 8-battery Group 31 packs.

Origin

We already had a line of successful and effective 12V power supplies, but OEM power demands continue to increase to successfully support module reprogramming. In addition, the heavy duty market asked us to add 24V operation to this product line. So, we added 24v operation and increased the maximum output from 100A to 120A. 

Features and benefits

• PS Mode: Massive power output of 0-120A, on demand, with minimal voltage ripple (<100mV) makes this the ideal unit to support module reprogramming, especially for late-model BMW and Mercedes models. 
• PS Mode: Supports ADAS recalibration, repairs of electronic vehicle systems, and electrical system diagnosis—with today's complex electrical systems, shops need a powerful, versatile tool for various applications. 
• Charge Mode: Provides beneficial charging to various battery types and sizes, delivering versatile services to today's shops.
