Model: 600B SLA Battery Capacity Analyzer USER MANUAL
Safety Summary The following safety precautions apply to both operating and maintenance personnel and must be followed during all phases of operation, service, and repair of this instrument. Before applying power to this instrument: Read and understand the safety and operational information in this manual. Apply all the listed safety precautions. Verify that the voltage selector at the line power cord input is set to the correct line voltage.
by a maximum voltage of the circuit to be tested, which defines the voltage impulses expected and required insulation clearances. These categories are: Category I (CAT I): Measurement instruments whose measurement inputs are not intended to be connected to the mains supply. The voltages in the environment are typically derived from a limitedenergy transformer or a battery.
You must ensure that each accessory you use with this instrument has a category rating equal to or higher than the instrument's category rating to maintain the instrument's category rating. Failure to do so will lower the category rating of the measuring system. Do not operate in an explosive or flammable atmosphere Do not operate the instrument in the presence of flammable gases or vapors, fumes, or finely-divided particulates. The instrument is designed to be used in office-type indoor environments.
In atmospheric pressures outside the specified altitude limits or where the surrounding gas is not air. In environments with restricted cooling air flow, even if the air temperatures are within specifications. In direct sunlight. This instrument is intended to be used in an indoor pollution degree 2 environment. The operating temperature range is 0 °C to 40 °C and the operating humidity range is ≤ 95% relative humidity with no condensation allowed.
Do not clean the instrument, its switches, or its terminals with contact cleaners, abrasives, lubricants, solvents, acids/bases, or other such chemicals. Clean the instrument only with a clean dry lint-free cloth or as instructed in this manual. Not for critical applications This instrument is not authorized for use in contact with the human body or for use as a component in a life-support device or system. Do not touch live circuits Instrument covers must not be removed by operating personnel.
Do not insert any object into an instrument's ventilation openings or other openings. Servicing Do not substitute parts that are not approved by B&K Precision or modify this instrument. Return the instrument to B&K Precision for service and repair to ensure that safety and performance features are maintained. For continued safe use of the instrument Do not place heavy objects on the instrument. Do not obstruct cooling air flow to the instrument. Do not place a hot soldering iron on the instrument.

Section 1 General Description 1.1 INTRODUCTION B&K Precision Battery Capacity Analyzer Model 600B measures the % capacity left in a battery. The model 600B supports 12V storage type lead acid batteries with wide range of Ah capacity. No external power (Main or DC) is required. The unit works on BUT (Battery Under Test). 1.2 APPLICATIONS As the information age develops it is likely that the demand for UPS units will increase for use in hospitals, offices, labs etc.
Section 2 Operation FRONT PANEL CONTROLS Refer to the Front view of the unit. 1) Ah Range : With this key the user can select the correct Ah range according to the battery under test. 2) Ah Select LED: This LED in ON to indicate that the user can select the Ah range. 3) Ah Setting Saved LED: 4) Display Mode: 5) Battery Voltage: This LED is ON when the unit locks to a particular Ah range set by the user. This key selects the display either as No load voltage or % balance capacity.
2.2 OPERATING PROCEDURE Follow the steps as outlined below: 2.2.2 Selecting Ah Capacity 2.2.1 Connection Procedure Connect Battery Capacity Analyzer (600B) to Battery Under Test (BUT). Connect the +ve terminal of 600B to +ve terminal of Battery. Connect -ve terminal of 600B to -ve terminal of Battery. The 600B will be powered by the BUT. On Power up, 600B performs a self test by turning on the 7 segments, LEDs one after another & finally flashing the version number. Press the 'Ah Range' key.
2.2.4 Observing Result After a Test By default the Battery Voltage is displayed on the display. To observe the Balance Capacity left, press the ‘Display Mode’ switch. 2.2.3 Conducting a Test Test can be conducted any time Ready/Complete LED is ON by pressing the “Load Test” key. The display will show the capacity in percentage. By doing so the ‘Test On’ LED starts glowing. Typically, it glows for about 2 seconds. Thereafter the ‘Ready’ test starts blinking.
