Let’s start by measuring a fresh battery

To evaluate whether batteries have deteriorated, measure the

internal resistance of a fresh battery. Deteriorated batteries will have

about 1.5 to 2 times (values for reference purposes) as high internal

resistance as a fresh one. Use these values as guidelines when

determining deterioration evaluation values.

Example: Changes in the internal resistance and voltage

associated with battery deterioration

Internal resistance: 0.5 mΩ

Voltage: 2.0 V

(Example values)

1.0 mΩ(Doubled)

1.8 V (Decreased by 10%)

Basic instruction on how to use the instrument

Connect the test lead to the

instrument. (Black) (Red)

Hold down for

at least 1 s.

Turn on the instrument.

Set the date and time when using

the instrument for the rst time.

(p. 43)

Choose a resistance range.

(p. 47)

Choose a voltage range.

(p. 47)

Enable the automatic hold and

automatic memory functions.

(The and

segments will appear.)

When the measured values become stable, the

display will automatically freeze them.

See “3.6 Automatic Hold Function” (p. 59).

Immediately after the display freezes measured

values, the instrument will automatically save them.

See “5.3 Automatic Memory Function” (p. 87).

Convenient functions

Comparator function

You can set threshold values to evaluate battery deterioration using

the comparator function. (p. 67)

Measurement recording prompt (p. 95)

Let’s get down

to work.

1 2

The 50th battery.

That’s it.

3The memory contains

49 data sets only . . .

One short!

I have to start from

scratch again.

The measurement recording prompt uses voice prompts and the

display to inform you of the battery number you are to measure

next. You can get your jobs done neatly, which will no longer require

you to start all over again.

No. 1, pass.

Next battery, No. 2.
