Description

This manual provides operating instructions for the Midtronics
CELLTRON MAX Universal Stationary Battery Analyzer. These
instructions will help you to properly configure your analyzer,
select test parameters, conduct tests, and manage data. It will
also give you information on product maintenance, warranty,
and service.
The analyzer features (2) backlit graphical LCD's, a digital
multimeter, and a thumb drive and transfer to a PC. The
analyzer software includes an icon-based menu and pre-
loaded data on over 200 battery models to expedite testing
and record-keeping.
The CELLTRON MAX represents the next generation of
Stationary battery management. The CELLTRON MAX gives
you advanced diagnostic/analysis capabilities and can operate
as a standalone tester or be fully integrated with the CellTraq
web-enabled data management and processing system.
CELLTRON MAX
Integration In The CellTraq System
The tester provides voltage, conductance, strap resistance,
and temperature measurements for batteries. This tester
is also capable of capturing multiple frequencies and can
trend historical measurements. By means of the Interface
Application, you can both upload data to and download data
from the CELLTRAQ software.
The CELLTRON MAX is designed for testing stationary batteries
used in UPS systems, power utility, and telecommunications
industries. Also, the Celltron MAX can test generator start
batteries. Its advanced analysis and data management tools
are designed for universal use in the following applications
regardless of configuration:
UPS Systems, 120, 220/240, 480, 600 volts
Power Utility (Switching, SCADA, etc.)
Telecom OSP, – 48/+24 volts
Telecom Central Office, – 48/+24 volts
CATV
Generator Start Batteries

Chapter 1: Analyzer Overview

Test capability

The CELLTRON MAX tests lead-acid batteries that are 2, 4, 6, 8,
10, 12, 14, and 16 V. The analyzer can test batteries providing
power to a load (in service) or not providing power (not in
service).

Measurements

The analyzer measures the status of a jar in voltages and
conductance values. It displays conductance values in
mhos ( ) or Siemens (S). Ampere hours (Ah) are a typical
measurement of jar capacity; however, they are difficult to
measure without knowing the load to which the jars supply
power. Midtronics recommends that you compare test results
to a conductance reference value. For more information
about determining a reference value, refer to Chapter 3 in this
manual.

Test range

CELLTRAQ
The analyzer has an operating range of 0 to 20,000 S. This
range includes jars that have about 5 to 6000 amp-hour (Ah
of reserve capacity.
8
NOTE: T he analyzer and manual use the word " jar"
when referring to a monobloc, which can contain
1 to 8 cells.
