Performing the Discharge Test, Continued:
3. Check and record the electrolyte temperature of the battery packs. Check cell no. 2 (second cell from
positive post) in each battery.
4. Reset discharge machine and turn the tester ON.
5. When the batteries have been discharging for approximately 60 minutes, set the discharge machine to
function 3 and check battery set voltage. Check voltage every 10 minutes throughout the rest of the test.
As soon as the battery set voltage reaches 0.5 volts above the shut-off point (42.0 volts), use a multim-
eter to measure individual battery voltages. Measure and record the voltage of each battery to the near-
est 0.01 volt.
NOTE: The tester will shut off automatically when shut-off voltage is reached.
Interpreting Discharge Test Results
1. If discharge time is 60 minutes or higher, the problem is not with the batteries.
2. If discharge times are low (less than 60 minutes), replace batteries below 10.05 volts.
3. In general, battery sets that discharge in less than 60 minutes at 78 °F (25.6 °C) on the discharge test
will typically not hold a charge for an entire work shift. However, discharge time is dependent on the elec-
trolyte temperature. The table shown gives the discharge times, at various temperatures, of a set of bat-
teries that delivers 62 minutes at 80 °F (26.7 °C).
