Notes Safety and Operating Environment Always use a grounded AC outlet to power the Analyzer X3 & X6. Keep the Analyzer X3 & X6 at least one-foot away from any object to allow for proper ventilation. Do not Analyze Batteries outside the recommended temperature ranges. For good and consistent results, 25°C (Room temperature) is recommended. Allow batteries to stabilize to room temperature before analyzing. Do not exceed the battery manufacturer’s recommended voltage, charge current and

Universal cup OVERVIEW The Universal cup will allow one to evaluate batteries with different chemistries and cell counts within defined The W&W Analyzer X3& X6 is a programmable battery tester and battery cycler capable of testing a variety specifications. The Universal cup has one memory location that can be programed the same as the Learn of battery chemistries such as; Lithium Ion, Lithium Polymer, Nickel Cadmium and Nickel Metal Hydride. Memory location in a standard cup. Most me

Learn Mode X X3 & X6 Specifications This mode when selected will allow a battery’s parameters to be created for new battery models. A battery “Adapter Cup” holds a total of 5 battery profiles for parameter storage; four are preprogrammed Station Std Power Supply Hi Power Supply with OEM information for a particular battery series. The fifth profile can be modified by the “Learn Mode”. During entry into the “Learn Mode”, Battery Chemistry, Capacity, and the number of Cells are

Parts Overview Impedance Test Impedance of a battery can be a good indicator of degradation of a battery’s performance. In general, the lower the impedance number the better the battery performance during discharge. As a battery ages the impedance starts to rise indicating possible problems with the electrolyte, separator, contact corrosion, or metal interfaces, all impact the impedance. The initial impedance of a new batter y should be recorded and compared through the life of a batte

Charge Mode Understanding the Analyzer X3’s and X6’s Adapter CUP The Analyzer X3 and X6 applies two types of charge algorithms for the two types of chemistries. For Nickel based battery chemistries, a constant current of 1C (changeable with software option) is applied The “Adapter Cup” allow different batteries to be serviced by the Analyzer X3 and X6. until the battery voltage peaks and descends negative. A top off current or 0.2C is then applied for 30 Each “Adapter Cup” is made for a s

Discharge Mode Getting Started The Analyzer X3 and X6 is capable of a single discharge cycle by selecting Discharge Mode. In the normal discharge mode a constant pre-stored load current (C/5) is applied to the battery until 1volt Power Up per cell has been reached. The result of the measurement is displayed as a percent of capacity. The - Connect the unit to the proper AC voltage and capacity of a battery is defined as the amount of current over time. So the discharge result sh

Cycle Mode Auto Mode The Cycle mode will cycle a battery through a charge and discharge cycle, known as Cycle (1). One could Life cycle testing can be accomplished by choosing the Auto test. Battery performance for multiple cycles can be Select, Cycle 1, 2 or 3. By selecting cycle 1,2 or 3 all one would be doing is repeating the Charge/discharge evaluated as long as the battery is not removed. Charge and discharge cycles are performed with 10-minute rest in between charge and discha
