VAS Battery Chargers Archiv – Exclusive for the Volkswagen Group


For more than 15 years akkuteam develops and manufactures special battery chargers for workshops of the Volkswagen Group. These special chargers for starter batteries designed in each case after functional requirements receive after permission of Volkswagen a VAS tool number and distribute world-wide by workshop equipment exclusively to partner enterprises of the twelve vehicle marks within the Volkswagen Group.

These equipment is laid out in their charge characteristics after world-wide defaults of the company quality assurance and partly have special functions, which only find application with internal test processes of the Volkswagen Group. For the large number of equipment, which akkuteam already supplied into this market, we offer a world-wide service for repair and technical advice.

VAS 5900A – Intelligence for Your Workshop

The VAS 5900A represents an advanced logical development of the proven garage battery charger VAS 5900.Today, electrical power demand on the vehicle power circuit during diagnosis and repair work is consistently very high in all vehicle models. This work would be unmanageable without a vehicle power circuit support of a garage charger.

With a rated current capacity of 35 A and an easily legible, computer animated user prompt system, we have adapted a new device generation to today’s requirements for battery chargers in garage repairs.State-of-the-art inverter technology provides economical and ultra-fast performance of processes and supplies all current and voltage requirements of the vehicle power circuit, reliably and according to need.

A robust aluminium housing with practical soft rubber edges guarantees reliable operation even under the toughest conditions and provides effective protection against any vehicle damage when the device is placed in or on top of the vehicle. Pluggable power and charge cables provide secure handling during use and afterwards during storage.

Today, when deciding on an investment in such tools, it is important that not only long operational life, but also usability in future applications requirements are assured.The functionality of the VAS 5900A can be updated via a data interface and it is pre-equipped with several slots for additional hardware requirements.
