*Accuracy values are conservative assuming operation will be through the standard temperature range of 0-40° C and RH from 10-90% (non-condensing). Units calibrated and maintained in a temperature and humidity controlled environment can expect an accuracy of 0.02-0.05%FS.
Overview
Bitrode’s model DTV is a high current discharge testing system designed for cold crank testing and discharge capacity performance testing. The DTV also supports data collection on a full range of external inputs for specific laboratory requirements including: thermocouples, PT-100, high impedance voltage, pressure, and specific gravity.
