The Metabo ASC 55 charger is a dedicated battery charger designed for charging batteries with a voltage of 12 to 36 V from the Metabo tool range. As a universal charging station, it is adapted for users who frequently use several different Metabo cordless tools and need a reliable and fast solution for preparing batteries.

It works on the basis of the “Air Cooled” system, which actively cools the battery and charger during the charging process. This technology lowers the temperature during charging, which reduces the risk of overheating and contributes to a longer battery life. For the user, this means more consistent operation of cordless tools and fewer interruptions due to the need for cooling or inadequate charging.

The charger recognizes the type of battery connected and automatically adjusts the charging parameters, making it suitable for professionals, occasional users and DIYers who use different capacities and types of Metabo batteries. The smart charging control function helps to use energy more efficiently and optimize charging time - it charges most compatible batteries in a shorter time frame compared to standard chargers without active cooling.

The compact design and low weight allow for easy movement between work sites or use in relatively confined spaces. Its construction is also adapted for permanent installation in a workshop or in a vehicle. The status LED signaling on the housing visually informs the user of the current charging status, which contributes to clearer use even in more busy or noisy environments.

The Metabo ASC 55 charger is a practical solution for anyone who needs a reliable and fast energy supply when working with cordless tools, and expects ease of use and increased charging safety due to active battery cooling.

It is important to know

Before choosing this charger, it’s crucial to consider how you’ll use the device in practice – especially in terms of compatibility and frequency of use. Pay attention to whether it fits all your batteries and whether charging time is really as important to your workflow as you initially think. Some key factors aren’t obvious from the specifications.

• If you are using multiple batteries of different voltages within the same brand or platform, check official compatibility first – sometimes universality is not perfect.
• Fast chargers work best when you change batteries frequently and it is important to you that the tool is idle for as short a time as possible - for infrequent home use, you often do not take full advantage of this advantage.
• The compact design means it's easy to carry, but multi-channel chargers are generally less suitable for mobile use.
• For continuous use in the workshop, robustness and wear resistance are more important than for occasional use in the field.

In practice

🟢 Charging one battery for occasional home use

The charger is particularly suitable for users who charge one battery at a time and use it only occasionally; compactness and simplicity are advantages.

🟢 Fast power supply while using the tool

The charger supports fast battery charging, which is useful if you want to resume work as quickly as possible and reduce the time when the tool is unusable.

🟡 Multiple batteries, different series/methods of use

It can charge different batteries of the same brand and voltage range, but compatibility and battery type must be clearly confirmed - not all series or generations are necessarily supported.

🔴 Simultaneous charging of multiple batteries

The charger is designed to charge one battery at a time, so it's not an ideal choice if you often need multiple charging slots at the same time.

🟢 Portable use in the field or in the workshop

The compact, robust design allows you to easily transport the charger into the field – a practical solution for a variety of job sites.

Answers to frequently asked questions

Is the charger compatible with all Metabo 12–36 V batteries?

The charger supports charging Metabo batteries with voltages from 12 to 36 V, but before use, check the compatibility with your model or battery series in the official documentation.

What does "Air Cooled" mean on this charger?

The charger uses active battery cooling during charging, allowing for faster and more reliable charging without overheating.

Can I charge two batteries at the same time with it?

No, this model is designed to charge one battery at a time.

Is the charger suitable for continuous use in a workshop?

The compact and robust design also allows for frequent use, but it does not replace a multi-channel charger if you need to charge multiple batteries simultaneously.
