Cadex Electronics Inc. C7000-C Series Battery Analyzers .
On some NiCd and NiMH batteries, manufacturers may rate the voltage based on
1.25V/cell rather than 1.2V/cell. For example, the batteries may have a stated voltage of
7.5V or 12.5V. To obtain the correct voltage, multiply this voltage by 0.96. These voltages
are definitions only (in fact, battery voltage varies depending on the state of charge) and
do not affect test results. Set the Cadex analyzer to display voltage as either 1.2V/cell or
1.25V/cell (see Voltage Display, page 61).
Some manufacturers may state the number of cells of their batteries. To get the correct
voltage, multiply the number of cells by the chemistry type. For example, the voltage of a
6-cell NiCd would be 6 x 1.2V = 7.2V. Use 7.2V on the analyzer.
Battery Rating (mAh)
The battery rating parameter is the nominal capacity or the capacity specified by the
manufacturer. These are also indicated on the battery or may be obtained from the
manufacturer.
If a battery rating is provided in Watt-Hours (Wh), divide it by the battery voltage to obtain
the mAh rating. For example, a 5Wh battery is 0.7Ah (700mAh).
Available settings: 100 – 24,975mAh in increments of 25mAh.
C-Code Setup Name
The C-Code setup name might be the battery model number or some other name that
helps users quickly identify the battery it defines. Use A
LT
-E
DIT
to access the C-Code name
and F
N
-0 to clear the text.
Scaled C-Code
Due to the power limitations on the analyzer, if a C-Code requires a higher charge or
discharge rate than the analyzer is capable, it automatically scales the C-Code. An inverse
S on the top-right hand corner of LCD screen when the basic C-Code is displayed will
indicate a scaled C-Code.
