BA101
1 Product Summary
1.1 Product Profile
BA101 Battery Tester adopts currently the world's most advanced conductance testing technology to easily, quickly and accurately measure
the actual cold cranking amps capability of the vehicle starting battery, healthy state of the battery itself, and common fault of the vehicle
starting system and charging system, which can help maintenance personnel to find the problem quickly and accurately, thus to achieve
quick vehicle repair.
1. Test all automotive cranking lead acid battery, including ordinary lead acid battery, AGM flat plate battery, AGM spiral battery, and Gel
battery, EFB battery, etc.
2.
Directly detect bad cell battery.
3.
Polarity reverse connection protection, reverse connection will not damage the tester or affect the vehicle and battery.
4.
Directly test the battery with loss of electricity, no need to full charge before testing.
5.
Testing standards include currently the world's majority of battery standards, CCA, BCI, CA, MCA, JIS, DIN, IEC, EN, SAE, GB.
6. Support multi-languages, customer can select different language package, which includes: English,French,Spanish,German,Italian,Polish,
etc. Other languages can also be customized according to user's need.
1.2 Product Function
Main functions of BA101 battery tester include: battery test, cranking test, charging test and other additional functions.
Battery test is mainly targeted to analyze the battery healthy status to calculate the actual cold cranking capability of the battery and the
aging extent, which provide reliable analysis evidence for the test and maintenance of the battery. It notifies the user to replace battery in
advance when the battery getting aged.
Cranking test is mainly to test and analyze the starting motor. Through testing the actual required cranking current and cranking voltage of
the starting motor, it can find out whether the starting motor works fine. There are several reasons why the starting motor is abnormal:
lubricating system fault causing the starting loaded torque increasing or rotor friction of the starting motor causing the increasing friction of
the starting motor itself.
Charging test is to check and analyze the charging system, including generator, rectifier, rectifier diode, etc., thus to find out whether the
output voltage of the generator is normal, the rectifier diode works fine and the charging current is normal. Suppose one of the above
mentioned parts is not in normal situation, it will lead to over charge or incomplete charge of the battery, thus the battery will be quickly
damaged and also greatly shorten the using life of other loaded electrical appliance.
