Clore Automotive introduced its new PRO-LOGIX Model PL6850, 12/24 Volt 120A Flashing Power
Supply and 120/60/40/10A Battery Charger. The company said the PL6850 is designed to provide stable power—on demand, up to 120 amps, to a vehicle electrical system to support module reprogramming, ADAS recalibration, electronic repairs and diagnostic tasks. It also provides full service 12/24V battery charging capability from 10 to 120 amps, to service everything from small vehicle batteries to Group 31 multi-battery packs, Clore said.
In power supply mode, the PRO-LOGIX PL6850 provides power to maintain vehicle electrical system
voltage at a preset level, increasing its output in response to system load increases to maintain a stable
power environment for successful reprogramming. It features a voltage output range of 13.1-14.9V (12V)
or 26.1-29.8V (24V), adjustable in 0.1V increments, allowing the operator to dial the output in exactly as
specified by the supplier of the vehicle under service. According to Clore, it features fast load responsiveness for ultra-quick recovery from system demand increases. It also delivers its massive power with minimal voltage ripple (<100mV), providing a clean flow of power to the vehicle without risk of programming interference.
link hidden, please login to view added that in charging mode, the PL6850 utilizes advanced microprocessor-controlled logic to optimally charge each battery or battery pack serviced. It features the ability to properly charge a wide variety of battery types, including Conventional, AGM, Spiral Wound, Start-Stop, Deep Cycle and Marine lead acid batteries, plus LiFEPO4 Lithium Batteries – enabling beneficial service of virtually any battery type installed in a vehicle. It adapts its charging approach based on the needs of each battery or battery pack it services, including activating a soft start mode on deeply discharged batteries and a battery repair mode on older/distressed batteries. It is also effective on totally dead (0.0V) batteries with its forced start mode, the company said. Clore explained the PL6850 features detachable and field-replaceable input cable and output leads. The #2 AWG output leads are 13’ long, enabling easy access to vehicle batteries/packs under any condition. The unit includes a handle for easy transport around a shop or in and out of a mobile service vehicle.

MANN+HUMMEL announced the parts kit for its MANN-FILTER fuel filter PU 10 023/1 z KIT for pickups makes maintenance easier, thanks to the patented disassembly tool. It offers a very high degree of particle separation and efficient water separation, while also being ideally equipped for future fuel filtration requirements, the company said.
“Efficient, fast, and clean – this is how the significantly improved handling of the PU 10 023/1 z KIT can be summed up,” explained Frank Bartel, product manager fuel filters at MANN+HUMMEL. This is made possible by the innovative handhold developed by
link hidden, please login to view, which facilitates disassembly and is included with every filter, and by the modern and functional design of the filter element and housing cover. Changing the filter without this grip, however, requires a lot of force and is only possible with pliers or similar tools. Resistant to Dirt and Water
“The innovative filter has an extremely high separation efficiency of more than 96 percent with a particle size of four micrometers,” MANN+HUMMEL said. “This means that 9,600 out of 10,000 incoming particles are retained. For context, these particles are up to 25 times smaller than a human hair.”
It is not only impurities that can have a negative effect on the components of the injection system, but also water droplets. This applies particularly to modern common rail systems, which place high demands on fuel quality. The MANN-FILTER PU 10 023/1 z KIT filters out more than 95 percent of the water contained in the fuel and operates in three stages, the company said.
In the first step, the filter medium reliably removes solid impurities from the diesel. The second filter stage works with a coalescing fleece that absorbs the finest water droplets from the fuel/water emulsion and combines them into much larger droplets. In the third filtration step, a water-repellent screen fabric ensures that the enlarged droplets do not enter the injection system. MANN+HUMMEL said it has developed this screen fabric in such a way that it is elastic and can withstand the mechanical requirements of pressure and temperature both during operation and at standstill. Bartel explains: “Thanks to its flexible design, it can effectively absorb the forces that arise and so has proven to be particularly robust, including in situations such as when the fuel freezes.”
The seal materials of this fuel filter are resistant to standard diesel, biodiesel variants, and novel synthetic diesel fuels such as hydrogenated vegetable oils (HVO). They have the corresponding OE approvals and ensure a permanent hold as well as the complete sealing of the filter.
Series Supplier
link hidden, please login to view said it has already started series production of this highly efficient fuel filter for a renowned vehicle manufacturer. The filter is available on the independent automotive aftermarket in original equipment quality as a PU 10 023/1 z KIT for various Ford Ranger pickup models and complements the extensive MANN-FILTER product range. MANN+HUMMEL has been granted a patent for the disassembly handhold by the German Patent and Trademark Office as well as in other countries. Worldwide, more than 1,200 researchers and developers at MANN+HUMMEL work on pioneering solutions with the aim of creating real added value and optimally meeting customer needs, the company said.
