Cadex C8000 may well be the most complete and affordable enterprise battery testing system available today.
Smart Battery Test
The Cadex C8000 reads SMBus batteries to verify fuel gauge settings, provide calibration, do performance check and assist in troubleshooting.
Runtime Test
C8000 allows testing batteries under GSM, CDMA and other digital protocols. Programming is in 50µs intervals with minimum setting of 500µs.
Application: Dynamic stress tests to examine battery runtime under digital load conditions.
Lifecycle Test
C8000 tests batteries by continuously cycling to end-of-life. BatteryLab™ records the test results in real time.
Application: Life-test until the capacity drops to the Target Selector red-line.
Built-In Programs
Basic Programs
Auto
Charge-discharge-charge; applies Recondition on nickel-based batteries if user-set target capacity cannot be reached.
Charge
Applies fast charge with charge termination; trickle when applicable.
Prime
Prepares batteries by cycling until the maximum capacity is reached. The first reading is the spare capacity before charge.
Boost
Activates batteries that have been discharged too low.
Extended Prime: 16-hour trickle charge, then automatically move to Prime.
Advanced Programs
Load Test
Tests batteries under simulated GSM, CDMA and other discharge protocols, 50μs steps; minimum setting 500μs.
Runtime
Provides three discharge levels; programmable in hours and minutes.
Lifecycle
Cycles battery until the capacity fades the set Target Selector threshold.
Self-Discharge
Determines the rate at which a battery loses charge. Assure intrinsic safety.
Discharge Only
Prepares battery for shipping and storage. Also checks charger function.
Load Capture
Simulates real life conditions with pre-recorded load. Requires PC-BatteryLab™ and Load Capture Unit to record load signature.
OhmTest™
Measure battery resistance with DC pulses in 13 seconds; based on IEC61436.
Impedance
Measures battery resistance with 1000Hz signal. Channel 1 only.
C8000 Core Features
Independent I/O Ports
Each channel features a Battery Port and I/O Port for individual programming with:
Positive/negative input; 4-wire Kelvin
1 analogue thermistor input
4 differential analogue voltage inputs
2 analogue outputs
4 input/output control for switching
SMBus, clock, data for smart packs
Serving as Laboratory System
Transform your C8000 into an automated command centre running external accessories:
Cell monitoring
Heating element
Pressure gauge
Safety circuit
Alarms (with custom programs using BatteryLab)
Serving as a laboratory command centre.
External Load Bank
One of the four channels supports the load bank.
For safety, reasons, load bank service is limited to discharge only.
Dual Power Port Cable (DPPC)
The Dual Power Port Cable (DPPC) allows parallel connection of channels 1 and 2, or 3 and 4, to increase current from 10A to 20A.
Limitation: DPPC only applies to discharge.
Included: 1x DPPC Included
Cell Monitoring
Floating analogue inputs enable voltage check of up to 5 cells
