The OBDSTAR MT502 is not a "compression test platform" in the traditional sense, which typically involves a mechanical gauge to measure cylinder pressure. Instead, the MT502 is a specialized bench test platform for electric scroll compressors, specifically those used in the air conditioning (AC) systems of electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid vehicles.
Primary functions
The MT502 is designed to address a key diagnostic challenge with modern EVs: their AC compressors are controlled by Controller Area Network (CAN) bus signals, not a simple 12V circuit. With the MT502, technicians can perform the following functions on a workbench:
- Power on the AC compressor: The tool sends the necessary CAN BUS signals to activate the compressor outside of the vehicle's AC system.
- Test and verify operation: Allows technicians to test and diagnose the electric scroll compressor to determine if it is functioning correctly.
- Support for multiple brands: The
MT502supports hundreds of new energy compressor models from a wide range of manufacturers.
Key components and features
- Android operating system: The MT502 runs on an Android 5.1.1 platform with a user-friendly interface.
- Specialized cables: It includes exclusive low-voltage and high-voltage harnesses and connectors to safely power and communicate with different compressor types.
- Wi-Fi connectivity: The platform supports Wi-Fi for one-click software updates.
- Intelligent search: A built-in search function allows users to quickly find the correct vehicle model or part number.
How it works:
The process involves connecting the MT502 to a 12V power supply and then using the specialized harnesses to link the platform to the electric scroll compressor on the workbench. The technician then selects the vehicle and compressor model from the menu and initiates the test, allowing them to verify the component's function without having to install it in a vehicle.
