Page 9: Product Description / Features
User’s Manual RODUCT ESCRIPTION EATURES The M3628PUT is designed for testing of ultracapacitors. As ultracapacitors age and wear, their capacitance decreases, and their ESR increases. This can result in decreased system performance, and ultimately, process failure. Measurement of an ultracapacitor's capacitance and ESR can help avoid expensive preemptive replacement. -

3.2.3. ONSIDERATIONS To ensure the most accurate possible measurements, the capacitor under test should be charged to its full rated voltage. Note that the M3628PUT will discharge the attached load capacitor to 2VDC. This unit is thus not recommended for use on ultracapacitors rated at less than 5VDC. -
Page 15: Operation
UNCTIONAL ESCRIPTION The M3628PUT is a digitally controlled DC supply capable of sourcing between 1 and 7 amps at between 0 and 130VDC. The unit is powered by standard 50-60 Hz AC. The output voltage is controlled by the digital interface panel on the front of the unit. -

- Page 25 A short description is below. Ensure the capacitor bank is fully discharged and floated. Apply power to the M3628PUT. Attach the output leads to the capacitor bank directly. If you are forming the capacitors in a drive, ensure that you are directly across the DC bus, not attached through the braking circuit.

Multiple tests may be performed if desired, to ensure repeatability. Once the procedure is completed successfully, the capacitor bank or equipment can be returned to storage or put into use, as appropriate.
