West Mountain Radio CBA V--Computerized Battery Analyzers
West Mountain Radio CBA V--Computerized Battery Analyzers have advanced capabilities for scientific battery performance assessment. * True constant current battery capacity test with results graphically displayed, constant power testing supported with extended software upgrade * Discharge current is software and electronically regulated using a solid-state switch and fan cooled electronic load * Test any type of battery, coin cell to automotive or larger. Presets for NiCad, NiMH, Lead Acid, Li Ion, Li Poly, Alkaline, Carbon Zinc, Mercury etc. * Solar cell profiling capability * Lower current testing capabilities--down to 10 mA * Multiple discharge tests can use watts as a parameter (CBA II/CBA III only allows current) Perform Fast, High-Power Testing * Tests quickly at real world load conditions, up to 150 watts or 40 amps maximum, whichever is higher * High voltage testing at up to 55 V (previous model CBA II/CBA III were only 48 V max.); the equivalent of 1 to 38 NiCad or NiMh cells * Perform power profile test (increase current at user's rate to see how voltage/power responds), useful for testing maximum power output of a power supply or solar cell * Optional 500 watt and 1,000 watt amplifiers Accuracy and Precision for Demanding Applications * Remote voltage sensing for higher testing accuracy * * On-board computer performs accurate measurement with 12-bit effective resolution. Auto ranging for two current ranges and three voltages * Each CBA is individually calibrated with a computerized calibration system * Calibration certification data provided with CBA V Pro * SDK for developing your own scripts or programming * TTL UART port that can be controlled by an Arduino, Raspberry PI, or other embedded system with a TTL serial port Built-in Safety Features Provide Superior Battery Protection * Improved cooling system allowing higher continuous loads for testing * * Additional LED status indications * * Fuse blown LED and easy to change fuses * * Fail safe: automatic protection of temperature, current, and power * Safety watchdog stops a discharge in the event of a computer crash * Discharge test current user selectable from 0 to 40 amps * Timed discharge test (stop discharge once certain Ah has been reached) * Dynamic test (alter test current using panel on the side of the software, without having to stop and start a new test) * Automatic voltage shut-off at end of test using a software recommended or user selected safe discharge voltage * Automatic over-temperature shut off at end of test at using a software recommended or user selected maximum temperature with optional external magnetic temperature sensor Free Standard Software for Data Analysis * User selected battery cell chemistry, number of cells, and test current * Software recommends safe tests based on user supplied battery information * Automatic graph setup and scaling * Measures and displays voltage, current, amp-hrs., and watts * User can set the criteria for "Easy-Go/No-Go" testing * Easy overlay comparisons of multiple graphs may be displayed saved and recalled * Save, display, and print battery test graphs and battery labels * Plug-and-play high-speed USB interface, with easy-to-use and intuitive Windows software supplied on CD ROM * Manage individual tests on any number of CBA V units connected to the same PC * Software has no limit on number of CBA Vs that can be attached (CBA II/CBA III required multiple unit license) * Extended Software Upgrade License unlocks features for serious battery testing

West Mountain Radio CBA Battery Charger Interfaces
West Mountain Radio CBA Battery Charger Interfaces are software-controlled and used with a West Mountain Radio CBA IV Battery Analyzer to automate life cycle tests, automatically alternating between periods of charging and discharging the battery. By automatically switching between the charge and discharge cycles of the battery, a hands-free lifetime test of the battery may be performed. CBA Battery Charger Interfaces require a user-supplied battery charger that is compatible with the test battery. When the interface units are idle, the two pairs of Powerpole connections on the interface are in an open-circuit state. When the units switch to charging, the Powerpoles are connected together, thereby connecting the battery charger to the battery under test. The interfaces measure the current going from the charger into the battery, and this current is then logged by the computer software. Adding battery chargers and CBA Battery Charger Interfaces to your battery testing setup not only allows for the full automation of battery life-cycle testing, but it also provides for the convenient recharging of batteries after testing for other parameters, such as capacity tests. Complete your battery test bench! Contact DX Engineering to order your West Mountain Radio CBA Charger Interfaces! West Mountain Radio CBA Battery Charger Interfaces include: * CBA charger interface unit * Two 4-position input/output terminal plugs * Owner's manual Note: For additional product information, please look at the files under the "Documentation" tab.

West Mountain Radio PWRcheck+ DC Power Analyzers
West Mountain Radio PWRcheck+ DC Power Analyzers are amazing DC power monitoring devices. A vibrant LCD color touchscreen displays data in digital, analog and bar graph formats. Eight digital display modes and graphical charts show voltage, current flow in either direction, wattage and ampere-hour measurements. This high-side monitor may be used in a mobile or base environment to measure 0 to 60 Volts DC up to 40 Ampere. A USB cable provides computer interface for device configuration and data download for display. Programmable alarms are available for over-current, under and over-voltage and amp-hours making this a versatile battery system monitor. Powerpole® connectors are used for Load and Source. Here are all of the features of the West Mountain Radio PWRcheck+: Hardware • Handles 8 display modes including voltage, current flow in either direction, wattage and amp-hours • Measures 0V* to 60V (Less than 8V requires USB power to PWRcheck+), 40A continuous load • Accurate to within +/- 10mV, +/- 10mA • Resolution - 10mV, 10mA • High side in-line monitor; does not require breaking power supply ground or return path, ideal for vehicle use • Vibrant LCD color touchscreen displays data in digital, analog and bar graph formats • Monitor back up battery with programmable gas gauge • Non-volatile memory stores more than 100,000 data points (nearly 2 1/2 months of data @ 1 point per minute) without power • USB computer interface for configuration and data download • Programmable alarm conditions for overcurrent, over/under voltage, amp-hours • Uses Powerpole® connectors (see Accessories) • Dimensions (WHD): 4.500 x 3.00 x 0.875 in. * PWRcheck+ requires a minimum 50mA load to measure voltages below 4.5V. Software • Easily program every aspect of PWRcheck+ operation such as data logging rate, display formats, alarm conditions • Displays current, voltage, wattage and amp-hours in real time • Integrated charting software automatically collects and displays data • Downloads stored data for later analysis • Exports to Excel Computer System Requirements Basic Requirements: • At least an 800 X 600 graphics card and display monitor • Windows XP, Vista®: 32 or 64 bit, Windows® 7: 32 or 64 bit, Windows® 8, Windows® 10 • An available USB port
