Hand-Held Battery Capacity Analyzers Quickly Display Status of Lead Acid Battery


Yorba Linda, Calif., July 23, 2004-BK Precision Corporation, one of the industry's leading suppliers of test and measurement products, today announced the immediate availability of The Models 601 and 602 Battery Capacity Analyzers to its expanding product line. These compact, lightweight, hand-held, battery under test (BUT) powered analyzers can be used to quickly and accurately identify the % capacity of 6V and 12V Lead Acid batteries (Model 601) and 24V and 36V Lead Acid batteries (model 602) which may be defective or deteriorated. Their low cost ($399) and versatility makes them ideal for use by hotels, hospitals, offices, factories, movie theaters, etc., or anywhere the need for battery back-up lighting or an uninterruptible power supply is found. Their small size and portability also makes them an ideal tool for use in automotive service stations, field service and maintenance, telecommunications, and UPS manufacturing and maintenance applications.

Designed to meet the need for a fast, accurate means of identifying the condition of lead acid batteries that are used for back up in emergency lighting and UPS applications, the Models 601 and 602's excellent performance (a complete battery analysis in about six seconds) and their compact size and weight makes them an ideal choice for determining the serviceability of a battery for use in emergency lighting, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) backup, service, research & engineering, test, and manufacturing bench applications.

The Model 601/602 hand-held Battery Capacity Analyzers provide a
complete battery analysis in as little as 6 seconds. They measure and digitally display the percentage of capacity left in the battery. The units are simple to operate and require no external power since they are powered by the battery under test (BUT). The new analyzers support 6VDC & 12VDC (Model 601) and 24VDC & 36 VDC (Model 602) storage type lead acid batteries with a wide range of AH capacity and measures both No Load
Voltage and Battery Capacity. By simply selecting the proper AH range and pressing the TEST switch, the user can obtain the BUT's percentage balance capacity.

The new Models 601/602 Battery Capacity Analyzer's outstanding
specifications include a capacity display range of 0% to 100%, a maximum input voltage of 20V Model (601) or 50V (Model 602), and +/- 2 counts No Load voltage indication accuracy. The unit's compact size (3.14" x 9.5" x 1.6"), light weight (2.2lbs.) low cost ($399), and immediate availability make them the ideal addition to any toolbox.
