Advanced Battery Tester (ADBT Series)
The Advanced Battery Tester is a completely new battery charge-discharge tester with an integrated charge-discharge system and chamber. This system has four functions (performance test, endurance test, temperature characteristic test, and impedance evaluation) to make the most of the battery characteristic evaluation.
Multiple functions including performance testing, durability testing, temperature characteristic testing and impedance evaluation (tailor-made) are included in this compact tester. A single tester can flexibly meet a wide variety of testing needs.
The integration of the chambers and the power system in a single structure can control each temperature for each chamber. Also, this system has drastically reduced the footprint than previous system.
Power supply to battery connection is completed simply by setting batteries in a battery holder equipped with a card edge connector, and inserting the connector into the slot at the back of the inner chamber.

Additional Features
Uniform temperature distribution
Horizontal airflow circulates inside the test area, with the 3-chamber type having a horizontal air outlet and the single chamber type having a rear air outlet. In addition, the design takes into consideration the battery holder position and battery arrangement, and it ensures a uniform temperature environment even when a battery is installed.
Battery holder provides simple setting
ESPEC provides battery holders to accommodate various battery shapes, including coin, cylindrical, square, and laminated batteries, and according to charge-discharge conditions.
Set the battery simply by placing it in the battery fixing area on the battery holder.
Three chambers individual control
The integration of the chambers and the power system in a single structure can control each temperature for each chamber. Also, this system has drastically reduced the footprint than previous system.
Battery holders match battery shapes for easy setup
Power supply to battery connection is completed simply by setting batteries in a battery holder equipped with a card edge connector, and inserting the connector into the slot at the back of the inner chamber.
EUCAR Hazard Levels
| Hazard Level | Description | Classification criteria, effect | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0 | No effect | No effect. No loss of functionality. | ||||
| 1 | Passive protection activated | No defect; no leakage; no venting, fire or flame; no rupture; no explosion; no exothermic reaction or thermal runaway. Cell reversibly damaged. Repair is needed. | ||||
| 2 | Defect / Damage | No leakage; no venting, fire or flame; no rupture; no explosion; no exothermic reaction or thermal runaway. Cell irreversibly damaged. Repair is needed. | ||||
| 3 | Leakage Δ mass < 50% | No venting, fire or flame; no rupture; no explosion. Weight loss < 50% of electrolyte weight (electrolyte = solvent + salt). | ||||
| 4 | Venting Δ mass ≥ 50% | No fire or flame, no rupture; no explosion. Weight loss ≥ 50% of electrolyte weight (electrolyte = solvent + salt). | ||||
| 5 | Fire or Flame | No rupture; no explosion (i.e., no flying parts). | ||||
| 6 | Rupture | No explosion, but flying parts of the active mass. | ||||
| 7 | Explosion | Explosion (i.e. disintegration of the cell) | ||||
