The Curtis Model 1030 Acuity
• The Model 1030 Curtis Acuity
• Acu-Set™ Software — 17668889-01Rxx.xx.
• CAN-to-USB Dongle — 17697USBCANI-01.
• Acuity Setup Harness — 17668357.
The system mounts directly to an industrial vehicle lead acid battery and
measures, records, and transmits battery performance data throughout the life
of the battery.
The Curtis Acuity is ideal for use in electric vehicles with applications
such as material handling, airport ground support, floor cleaning, light-on-road,
golf/utility, and aerial work platforms. Features include:
3 Highly accurate state-of-charge calculation that uses a weighted
average of ampere-hour counting and voltage under load
measurements.
3 Witness data that demonstrates the battery has been operated
within the conditions of its warranty.
3 Since Acuity is permanently attached to the battery, information
is collected consistently and accurately over the lifetime of the
battery, no matter how many times the battery is moved.
3 Data can used to optimize productivity of a battery fleet/vehicle.
3 CANbus allows simple system integration.
3 Installation is simple and non-invasive, with no need for special
hardware and no cutting of cables or drilling into the battery.
3 Integral real-time-clock allows date and time stamping of
significant events related to the battery or any vehicle component
of the CANbus.
3 CANbus isolation eliminates ground loops that can cause
component damage as well as data errors due to differences in
ground potentials among the nodes on the CANbus.
