This hand-held high frequency impedance Digital Battery Analyzer is designed to give quick and accurate measurements to the end user. Advantages of the Digital Battery Analyzer include:

Analyzes the condition of the battery and its charging system and identifies potential problems, ensuring that users are never caught with a potential failure at the most inappropriate of times.
Far more accurate than load testers.
Test results are obtained in seconds! No user input or configurations are required.
No need for conversion look-up tables. The analyzers automatically adjusts itself for various battery and engine sizes.
Measures Wet, Maintenance-Free, and even AGM batteries.
Lightweight and Maintenance-Free - Not even a battery change

This entry level Digital Battery Analyzer (DBA) is a easy-to-use, language-free analyzer that offers state-of-charge (voltage), cranking power and lifespan measurements at the touch of a button! Clear, intuitive symbols provide the user with all the information needed at a glance. The DBA is the ideal solution for mechanics, technicians or even home users who need complex results made simple!

The DBA is a hand-held microprocessor-based digital battery analyzer capable of real time, online overall analysis of your car battery and its charging system. Unlike load testers that damage both the battery and tester, not to mention costing a lot more, the DBA performs non-detrimental testing, and readings can be obtained multiple times.

Features:

One-Touch Functionality
Language Independent
Lightweight & Maintenance-Free - Not Even a Battery Change!
Polarity Protection
Clear & Intuitive Display

Despite its very sophisticated technical features, it is extremely user friendly with all your battery's data obtained with a single push of a button. No pre-entry or further conversions of data is required. You don't need to be an engineer, or read a 100-plus page manual that makes no sense to use it.

Applications:

Domestic users can monitor the health of their batteries, ensuring that batteries do not fail on them at inappropriate times. Never change a battery before you really need to!
Mechanics now have a more reliable tool to monitor the batteries of vehicles brought in for servicing and repair.
Chargemen and technicians can monitor the batteries used at communication installations, starting batteries for generators, or standby batteries in uninterruptible power supply systems.

Cranking Measurements

An automotive battery is mainly used to crank a vehicle. While load testers and conductance testers are commonly used, neither actually indicates the cranking effectiveness of the battery. Nor do they predict when the battery will fail to crank a vehicle.

Designed for both out-of-vehicle and in-vehicle use, both Digital Battery Analyzer models address the weakness of these conventional testers with its cranking power measurements. Simply connect the analyzer to the battery in the vehicle and start the engine!

Figure (A) above shows the voltage profile of a healthy battery during the cranking of an engine. The graph starts off at the battery's nominal voltage, and a voltage drop is detected when the vehicle is cranked. The voltage recovers to the battery's nominal voltage and eventually rises to approximately 14.4 V when the alternator starts charging the battery.

Note the difference in the voltage drop in Figure (B) where a typical 2 year-old battery is weaker but still usable. Figure (C) represents a very weak battery that can barely crank a car and is due to fail in the very near future.

The Digital Battery Analyzers utilizes this voltage profile to determine the cranking power of the tested batteries and will display it either as a fan graph (Digital Battery Analyzer) or cranking voltage (Digital Battery Analyzer PRO2). Voltage profiles indicate the relative ability of the installed battery in starting an engine, so there is no need for knowledge of the motor requirement or the battery's rating and size.
