Bosch FSA 050 Hybrid Tester (0684010050)

Description

Genuine Bosch · Part no. 0684010050

The Bosch FSA 050 (0684010050) is an insulation and high-voltage tester for the drive systems of hybrid and electric vehicles. It measures up to 600V (TRMS), tests insulation at 50, 100, 250, 500 and 1 000 V up to 200 GΩ, and also checks continuity, resistance and capacitance, either on its own or as a module with an FSA 500.

Good to know

• Who should use it? Only technicians trained for high-voltage vehicle work. The system must be made safe to the vehicle maker's procedure, with insulated gloves and tools, before any testing; it is not a tool for home use.
• What does it find that a multimeter can't? Insulation faults: it applies a test voltage of up to 1 000 V to show leakage between the high-voltage system and the vehicle body, with timed, PI and DAR modes for comparing readings over time.
• How do results get to the workshop PC? Over Bluetooth class I, up to 30 m, through the supplied Bluetooth USB stick and CompacSoft[plus] software. It runs on five AA batteries, so carry spares.

Which one?

For 12V batteries and charging systems rather than high-voltage drives, ask us about the Bosch BAT 115 (0687000115), or see the Topdon BT200 12V Battery & 12V/24V System Tester (BT200).
