West Mountain Radio CBA Battery Discharge Amplifiers

West Mountain Radio CBA Battery Discharge Amplifiers make testing batteries at high discharge rates easier than ever! These amplifiers are very simple in concept: They are a DC amplifier that amplifies and regulates discharge current (load) with a total of 10X amplification-factor as set by the software. The Computerized Battery Analyzer (CBA) is actually doing one-tenth of the discharge work and the amplifier is doing the other nine-tenths. The amplifier simply senses the current drawn by the CBA and amplifies the discharge current setting of the CBA for a total of ten times the set current. CBA Battery Discharge Amplifiers are designed and recommended only for COMMERCIAL OR INDUSTRIAL use. They are not intended for a hobbyist, as they will easily test batteries at destructive limits. It is NOT recommended to test batteries at advertised maximum ratings--maximum discharges may significantly shorten the life-cycle of a battery. CBA Battery Discharge Amplifiers are designed to be left in-line and switched off for discharge rates that are less than 100 watts or less than 10 amps. At these power levels, a CBA alone can handle the discharge current. If your battery analyzer application calls for a high rate of discharge when performing battery testing, then contact DX Engineering today for one of these West Mountain Radio CBA Battery Discharge Amplifiers! Look at these specifications! * Max. continuous discharge rate: 500 W * Discharge rate amplification (typical): 10X +/- 1% * Absolute-maximum operating voltage: 55 V * Max. discharge rate: 160 A (battery dependent) * Min. voltage for 160A discharge: 0.9 V at test completion (battery dependent) * Connectors: Supplied copper bus 5/16 bronze battery connectors; Powerpole CBA connectors * Fan operation: Auto sense, requires 1A or more current from CBA (stays on approx. 5 min. after test completion) Note: For additional product information, please look at the files under the "Documentation" tab.
