1. Product Summary
1.1 Product Profile
RD510 Battery Tester adopts the state-of-the-art conductance testing
technology to easily, quickly, and accurately measure the actual cold
cranking amps capability of the vehicle starting battery, healthy state of
the battery itself, and common fault of the vehicle starting system and
charging system. With a wide testing range from 100 -2000CCA
compatible with regular flooded, AGM flat plate, AGM spiral, or gel
batteries. Cove
rs most of the battery rating stand ards like CCA, BCI, CA,
MCA, JIS, DIN, IEC, EN, SAE, etc. It can help maintenance personnel to
find the problem quickly and accurately, thus to achieve qui ck vehi cle
repair. The charger is designed to charge 12V lead-acid batteries from
4AH-100AH, please check the battery specifications before using this
charger.
1.Test all automotive cranking lead-acid batteries, i ncluding ordinary
lead-acid batteries, AGM flat plate battery, AGM s
piral battery, and Gel
battery, etc.
2.Directly detect bad cell battery.
3.Feature reverse polarity protection: the reverse connection may not
damage the tester or affect the vehicle and battery.
4.Directly test the battery with loss of electricity. Full charge is not
required before testing.
5.Testing standards cover most of the world's battery standards, such
as CCA, BCI, CA, MCA, JIS, DIN, SAE.
6.Support multi-languages, customer can select different language
pa
ckage, which includes English, German, French, Dutch, Russian,
Spanish, Italian, Portuguese.
7.If you have any good idea or problems, please contact us by
email: [email protected]
1.2 Product Function
RD510 battery tester features the following functions: battery load test,
cranking test, charging test, battery maintainer(pulse repair), trickle
charger, battery desulfator and other additional functions.
The battery test mainly aims to analyze the batt
ery's health status to
calculate the actual cold cranking capability of the battery and the aging
extent, which provide reliable analysis evidence for the test and
-

-
maintenance of the battery. It may notify the user to replace the battery in
advance when the battery gets aged.
The cranking test is used to test and analyze the starting motor. Testing
the actual required cranking current and cranking voltage of the starting
motor is helpful to determine whether the starting motor works properly or
not. If the starting malfunction may cause an increased starting loaded
torque; or rotor friction of the starting motor generates increasing
friction of
the starting motor itself.
Charging test is to check and analyze the charging system, including
generator, rectifier, rectifier diode, etc., thus to find out whether the output
voltage of the generator is normal, the rectifier diode works properly and the
abnormal, it wi ll lead to overcharge or incomplete charge of the battery, thus
cause quick damage to the battery and greatly shorten the life of other
loaded appliance.
