The GRX-5100 hybrid/electric-vehicle (EV) battery station from Midtronics safely de-powers high-voltage batteries and also enables service for the battery system at the module level, reducing manufacturer warranty costs and repair time and expense for customers. According to Midtronics, the device is the first high-voltage battery service and de-power tool for various hybrid and electric vehicles. It was developed to perform full battery pack service, including balancing, charging in no-start situations, and full de-powering. The de-power capability enables packs in vehicles that have been involved in severe collisions to be de-powered to a safe level for storage, recycling, or shipment. The GRX-5100 features a versatile electrical harness between vehicle batteries and communication systems via unique adapters for each vehicle model.
