1.Description:
CTE-3000 is a stationary battery analyzer that measures the conductance and voltage of 12V lead acid
stationary battery to identify those that:
. Are good.
. Are serviceable
. Need to be replaced.
2. Specification
2.1 The analyzer measures the status of a battery in voltage and conductance values. It displays
conductance values in 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. Lancol recommends
that you use a reference value to compare the conductance value to the test results. A reference value is a
typical conductance value for the type of jars you are testing. For more information about determining a
reference value, refer to "Chapter 2: Pre-testing."

    Options Lancol recommends that you create your own reference values for a group of batteries to get values specific to the group you are testing. For this reason, the following options are listed in the order you should take to obtain a reference value.

Figure 1, Startup Interface with Voltmeter on At the middle bottom of the startup interface, it displays the voltmeter value, which can be used as DC voltmeter. DC Voltmeter test range is 8-30DCV, out of which will damage the tester.
