Festool SCA 16 230V AIRSTREAM Rapid Charger

At a Glance: High-performance 16A rapid charger with intelligent AIRSTREAM cooling for compatible Festool battery packs in voltage classes from 10.8V to 18V.

Keep your Festool cordless tools working with minimal interruption using the Festool SCA 16 230V AIRSTREAM Rapid Charger. Its powerful 16A charging current delivers exceptionally fast charging, while the intelligent AIRSTREAM system actively cools compatible battery packs before and during the charging process. This controlled cooling allows heated battery packs to accept the maximum possible charging power sooner after demanding work. The charger is suitable for compatible Festool battery packs in the 10.8V, 14.4V and 18V voltage classes, excluding BP-XS battery packs used with the CXS and TXS system. A clear LED display provides information on charging status and remaining charging time, while the integrated cord holder and wall-mounting provision help maintain an organised workshop or site charging area.

Rapid charging with intelligent temperature management

AIRSTREAM technology directs cooling air through compatible battery packs before and during charging. The cooling system operates only when technically necessary, helping reduce charging interruptions while using energy efficiently.

Pro Tips

Place the charger where its cooling openings remain completely unobstructed.
Use the wall-mounting provision to create a permanent and organised battery-charging station.
Allow very cold battery packs to reach an acceptable charging temperature before use.
Keep the battery contacts clean and dry to ensure reliable electrical connection.
Use compatible AIRSTREAM battery packs to obtain the full benefit of active cooling.
Rotate several battery packs during continuous work so one pack can charge while another powers the tool.
Do not place tools, clothing or other objects over the charger while it is operating.
Store the mains cable on the integrated holder when the charger is transported or not in use.
Inspect the charging area regularly and remove accumulated dust from around the ventilation openings.

How to Use

Place the charger on a firm, dry and stable surface with adequate ventilation.
Alternatively, secure it to a suitable wall or charging board using appropriate mounting hardware.
Inspect the charger, mains cable, plug and battery pack for visible damage.
Confirm that the battery pack is compatible with the SCA 16 charger.
Connect the charger to a suitable 220–240V mains electrical supply.
Slide the battery pack fully into the charger until it is seated correctly.
Observe the LED display to confirm that the charging process has started.
Allow the AIRSTREAM cooling system to operate automatically where required.
Monitor the LED display for charging progress and remaining charging time.
Leave the battery pack in place until the charger indicates that charging is complete.
Remove the battery pack by holding its release mechanism and sliding it out of the charger.
Disconnect the charger from the mains supply before cleaning or prolonged storage.
Wind the mains lead onto the integrated cord holder after use.
Store the charger in a clean, dry location away from moisture and excessive heat.
