The TORKEL? 900 series is used to perform load/discharge testing which is the only way to determine battery systems actual capacity. Together with the optional cell voltage logger, BVM, connected directly to the TORKEL 910, it becomes a complete, stand-alone, discharge test system.
The TORKEL is connected to battery, the current and the voltage alarm levels are set. After starting the discharge, TORKEL keeps the current constant at the preset level. When the voltage drops to a level slightly above the final voltage, TORKEL issues an alarm. If the voltage drops so low that there is a risk for deep discharging
the battery, TORKEL shuts down the test. If the power supply is interrupted the test will continue when power is restored. All values are stored in TORKEL and can easily be transferred via a USB-stick to a PC for evaluation and print out.
