Fluke BT510 Battery Analyser

Fluke BT510 Battery Analyser

The Fluke BT510 Battery Analyser is a portable tool for maintenance, troubleshooting and performance testing of both individual stationary batteries and battery banks. The Fluke BT510 is capable of testing several different aspects of a battery including internal battery resistance up to 3000mΩ, battery voltage to 600V, DC voltage, AC voltage/frequency, AC voltage ripple, discharge and sequences. The resistance of the intercell connection between batteries in a string can be conducted using the Intercell strap resistance test and data management

The intuitive user interface and compact rugged design ensure an optimum performance, test results and reliability. Combined visual and audible feedback cues reduces the risk of measurement confusion. The device also offers users the chance to configure values and thresholds for resistance and voltage. Users can configure a maximum of 10 sets of thresholds and receive Pass/ Warning/ Fail indications after each test measurement. Results can be compared after each measurement via the visual and audible cues.

The Fluke BT510 includes ergonomic test leads featuring rugged coaxial two pole kelvin test point with remote save button, reducing the test time. Long reach, straight and angled probes for double stacked cells.

Fluke Battery Management Software

All measurement recordings are automatically captured on the BT510 using AutoSave and allow for instance reviewing on the instrument. Data can be downloaded straight from the device to a PC via the USB port. The measurement data and battery profile data is stored and archived using the management software. Users are able compare trends for analysed. Reports can be generated for measurement data, battery profile and analysis information.

• Quick view of saved readings
• Profile management
• Histogram of a battery string with end-user defined threshold
• Historical trend data of batteries
• Multiple rounds ion discharge Voltage
• Quick report generation
• Upgrade Fluke battery analyser firmware

The Fluke BT510 has a rechargeable battery life of eight hours continuous use. Safety rated to 6000V CATIII and IP40 rated the Fluke BT510 allows for safe measurement all around the battery power supply equipment.

Key Features

• Battery Voltage: During the internal resistance test, Fluke Battery Analysers also measure the voltage of the battery under test
• Discharge Voltage: The Discharge mode collects the voltage of each battery multiple times at a user defined interval during a discharge or load test. Users can calculate the time a battery takes to drop to the cut-off voltage and use this time to determine the capacity loss of the battery
• Ripple Voltage test: Measures unwanted residual AC component of the rectified voltage in DC charging and inverter circuits. Allows users to test ac components in dc charging circuits and find one of the root causes of battery deterioration
• Meter and Sequence modes: The Meter mode is used for a quick test or troubleshooting. In this mode you can save and read the readings in a measurement or time sequence. The Sequence mode is for maintenance tasks with multiple power systems and battery strings. Before a task starts, users can configure a profile for the task for data management and report generation
• Threshold and warning: Users can configure a maximum of 10 sets of thresholds and receive a Pass/ Warning/ Fail indication after each measurement
• Intercell strap resistance test and data management: Measures the resistance of the intercell connection between batteries in a string.
• AutoHold: When AutoHold is turned on, a reading is captured when it remains stable for 1 second. The reading is then released when a new measurement starts
• Autosave: When AutoSave is turned on, measured values are saved to internal memory automatically after an AutoHold reading is captured
• Fluke battery management software: Easily import data from the Product to a PC. The measurement data and battery profile information is stored and archived with the Management Software and can be used for comparison and trend analysis. All measurement data, battery profile and analysis information can be used to easily generate reports
• Comprehensive logging up to 999 records: All measured values are automatically captured during testing and can be reviewed on the instrument before downloading for on the-go analysis
• Optimised user interface: Quick, guided setup ensures you're capturing the right data every time
• 8 hours continuous use battery life
• USB port: For fast data download to supplied data analysis and report management application software.
• CAT III 600V, 1000V DC max. rated for safe measurements all around the battery power supply equipment
