West Mountain Radio CBA A2 500W Amplifier

The CBA A2 500W Amplifier enhances the testing capability of the CBA IV & CBA IV PRO computerised battery analysers. Perfect for high current dicharge testing of larger batteries.

Features:

• Perform Fast, High Power Testing
  • Test at 5 times the power with a CBA amplifier in between a CBA and your battery
  • 500 watt discharge with a single amp and a CBA
  • Designed for commercial or industrial use
  • Test a Lithium cell at up to 120 amps / 500 watts with a single amplifier
  • Test a Nickel cell at 160 amps regulated down to .9 volts with a single amplifier
  • Test batteries at or near their current and temperature limits
  • Support for operation with one or more CBA 500 watt amplifiers and CBA IV & PRO
• Test at Real World Load Conditions
  • Increases 100 watt continuous capability of CBA to 500 watts
  • Discharge rates at up to 500 watts or 160 amps maximum, whichever is higher
  • High voltage testing at up to 55 volts; the equivalent of 1 to 38 NiCd or NiMH cells
• Extended Software License Unlocks Features for Serious Battery Testing
  • Programmable automatic duty cycle test with up to 999 second on/off cycle periods
  • Regulated constant power discharge (current goes up as battery voltage drops)
  • Temperature graphing with a recovery time option
  • Ragone power density charting using battery weight (used for performance comparison of energy sources charting energy density (Watt-Hours/kg) vs power density (W/kg))
  • Test-lead resistance voltage calibration utility to give higher accuracy voltage readings right at the battery terminals
  • Enables placement of user notes on graphs
• Easy-to-Use Software for Data Analysis
  • User selected battery cell chemistry, number of cells and test current
  • Software recommends safe tests based on user supplied battery information
  • Automatic graph setup and scaling
  • Measures and displays voltage, current, amp-hrs, watts and temperature (Requires optional temperature probe)
  • Easy overlay comparisons of multiple graphs may be displayed saved and recalled
  • Save, display and print battery test graphs and battery labels
  • Plug and Play high speed USB interface, with easy to use and intuitive Windows® software supplied on CD ROM
