Introduction 

 
MBT2415  is  the  latest  version  of  the  Battery  Analyzer  which  tests  12V  systems  (4  functions)  and  24V  systems  on 
Starters and Alternators (Normal and Smart). This tester revolutionized its display format and is the first in the world with 
a fully graphical display. The graphical display is simple; with step by step instructions that enable the user to clearly 
understand the operation. The symbols used are universal which solve language barriers.  
 
The unit comes with an integrated printer so the graphical results can be printed immediately after each test. Its memory 
stores up to 70 previous test results for later viewing. Its PC Link feature allows the results to be transferred and stored 
in the computer via a USB cable. The PC Link software is installed into the computer beforehand.  
 
The Battery Analyzer operates on all 12V or 24V batteries and is able to perform four tests: 
 

1. Battery Test: 

This test is intended only on 12V batteries. The Analyzer clips (red & black) have to be clamped onto the battery 
terminals. When the Analyzer detects the voltage present, the Analyzer will automatically remind the user that 
it can test only on a 12V battery when connected to the 24V system. 

 

 

Analyzes the  battery condition  using microprocessor-controlled testing methods without the  need of fully 
charging it before test. 
 

 

The unit consumes very little current during testing, hence the test can be repeated numerous times without 
any worry of draining the battery, and its results are highly accurate.  

 

 

Extremely safe, as it does not create any sparks during clamping, and it takes less than 8 seconds to obtain 
the full analyzed results of tested battery.  

 

 

Temperature compensated end results. 

 

 

It is powered up from testing the 12V or 24V battery. No maintenance is required during its lifetime service.
