PFX2512
Connecting the Devices
The following example is consisting of the Charge/ Discharge System Controller PFX2512, DC
power supply PWR1201ML, the Electronic load PLZ1205W, and the DUT (battery).
The direction of leading cables of input / output terminal board can be either right or left angle.
However, wire the all the cables to become same directions as possible. Use the cable whichever it
comes as standard accessory.
For stable operation, reduction of noise effects, and prevention of malfunction, note the following.
• Twist the + and - cables.
•
Do not bind or cross the cables.
• Do not bind flat cables with cables for running current or pass them between cables.
The PFX2512 does not come with cables for connecting to the DUT (battery). Prepare the necessary
cables for each device.
p. 123
There is an optional TL08-PFX cable set that contains cables for connecting the PFX2512 to the DUT
(battery).
Taking the current capacity into consideration, we recommend that you use cables with a nominal
cross-sectional area of at least 14 mm
