Measure Ripple Voltage
The Product can measure the ac component on a dc voltage, which is also known as ac
ripple. A high ac ripple may result in a battery overheat and negatively impact the battery
life. In addition, it may cause extra energy loss to the system.
To measure ripple voltage, turn the rotary switch to RIPPLE VOLTS.
Set Measurement Range
In ripple voltage function, both ac voltage and dc voltage use auto range by default.
To manually set the range for ac voltage, push to switch between 600 mV and
6000 mV.
The measurement of dc voltage uses auto range. This cannot be changed.
Save Ripple Voltage Readings
In Meter mode, push the Save softkey to save the current ripple voltage reading and the
timestamp. All saved data is stored in chorological order.
In Sequence mode, push the Save softkey to save the current ripple voltage reading and
the timestamp. The current battery number automatically increases by 1. The cell that
corresponds to the tested battery becomes full, and the cursors move forward.
Note
Up to 20 ripple voltage readings can be saved in one profile.
Measure Discharge Voltage
In a typical battery load discharge test, you need to test the voltage of each battery in a
battery string multiple times. In a typical load discharge test, the voltage of each battery
is monitored from the start of the test when the batteries are at full capacity, until the
voltage of any one battery while under constant load reaches a pre-defined minimum
voltage level.
Make Measurements
To test discharge voltage:
1. Push M as necessary to enter Sequence mode.
2. Turn the rotary switch to Discharge VOLTS.
Note
Discharge voltage can only be measured in Sequence mode.
