TM-6001 1 Features 1. The Battery Tester is designed for measuring the internal impedance and open circuit voltage of the secondary battery including Nickel-metal hydride battery ( NiMH),Nickel-cadmium battery(NiCd),Lithium-ion battery(Li-ion), Alkaline battery and lead-Acid battery. 2. AC four-terminal method to measure the internal impedance by eliminating lead impedance and contact impedance to get the accurate results.
TM-6001 3 Safety Precaution CAUTION Take extreme care for the following conditions while measuring. Measuring voltage over 20V as it may cause human body electricity conduction. Do not measure voltage, current under humid or wet environment. If any unusual condition of test leads’...
