1.0 - Introduction
1.1-The Product:
As we all know battery plays a very important role in a vehicle by providing
power to all the electrical components and also the initial power to get the
engine started. Once the engine runs, the alternator will take over and at the
same time it charges the battery. In order these power systems to perform
efficiently at all times, they need to be checked regularly during service and
maintenance of the vehicle.
For quick and convenient way of checking the condition of these power
systems, this Battery Electrical System Analyzer is designed to perform the
following tasks:
1. Battery Test:
Analyzes the battery condition using microprocessor controlled
testing methods without the need of fully charging it before test.
The unit consumes very little current during testing hence the test
can be repeated numerous times without worry of draining the
battery and its results are highly accurate.
Extremely safe as it does not create any sparks during clamp on and
it takes less than 8 seconds to obtain the full analyzed results of
tested battery.
2. Grounding Test:
Analyzes the condition of the electrical return circuit contact
resistance which was connected to the engine or chassis body from
the battery terminal with results and recommendations display after
test.
