Kvaser AB has signed a Technical Associate (TA) agreement with test and measurement specialist, Klaric GmbH & Co. KG. The Stuttgart-based manufacturer serves the automotive market with a product portfolio that encompasses current, voltage and temperature measurement modules and sensors for high and low voltage applications, as well as the high voltage breakout boxes for safe measurement in electric and hybrid systems, many of which use CAN for data output and/or configuration.

Killian Klaric commented:

Commented Silvia Küller, Managing Director of Kvaser Europe: “The measurement and validation of electrical components is a key phase within the development and test of any vehicle, determining its overall reliability and efficiency. When it comes to High Voltage or EV applications, Klaric’s range of capable and Kvaser-compatible tools are highly complementary to our existing partner network.”

One of Klaric’s latest products is an EV charge-monitor, used to validate the charging process for electric or hybrid vehicles. Capable of measuring current and voltage in both AC and DC, the system can be used for among others, vehicle certification, emissions testing and energy management R&D. With up to three CAN bus outputs (all high-speed), the Kvaser Memorator Pro 5xHS is a particularly good fit.
