WARNING
Do not connect a discharged battery to a
battery that has not been discharged. The
batteries must be charged to the same
potential (voltage) before they are con-
nected together.
For viewing results and report see section "5.7 View-
ing results and reporting" on page 26.
5.3 Test at constant power
TORKEL can be used to conduct a discharge test at
constant power instead of constant current. All proce-
dures are the same except that you must set TORKEL
differently before starting – you set the power instead
of the current.
Preparations
Follow the safety precautions set forth in section "2.2
Safety instructions" on page 8 and the prepara-
tions for testing in section "5.1 Preparations for test-
ing" on page 20.
Configuring TORKEL for constant
power

Calculate the current at the end of the test
(divide the power by the voltage).
2]
Then make sure that the total current does
not exceed 2999 A and that the TORKEL and
TXL units can load with the required current
throughout the test.
