What is the 4-Bay Battery Analyzer?
The BBM4 is a 4-Bank Battery Conditioner/Analyzer for BK Radio KNG P series batteries. The Cadex Unit analyzes the condition of a battery and provides information to safely service them. This analyzer does not require multiple adapters for each battery chemistry type (NiCad, NiMH and Li-ion will charge on the same adapter).
Battery Reactivation
Capacity is the leading indicator of a good or bad battery. The Analyzer is reading internal resistance to estimate battery health and if it is no longer reliable. Li-ion battery packs often fail due to over-discharge. At 2.8V/cell, the protection circuit opens, and the battery appears dead but the CHKNGAZCA4 activates the circuit and brings the battery pack back to life.
Battery Chart Capacity Life-cycle Test
The program is automated; the software plots and stores the test results which can be downloaded to a computer. This program performs an incoming battery inspection. The CHKNGAZCA4 analyzer also offers dynamic stress tests to examine each battery under different load levels.
Maintaining Fleet Batteries
The CHKNGAZCA4 has a software, label and handheld scanner option that simplifies fleet service by creating a permanent ID number to each battery which can be affixed to the batteries. The label printer generates the labels with a bar code to identify and track each battery through its life. To service a battery, simply scan the label and insert the battery into the analyzer. The software will configure, and the analyzer displays the battery history that includes age and past service reports. This solution is a simple yet powerful for a PC-interface to control and monitor the CHKNGAZCA4 battery analyzer. The database holds over 3,000 batteries with a mouse click or bar code swipe that configures an analyzer. The software, label, and handheld scanner are sold separately.
*Allow 6-8 weeks lead time on analyzers, they are custom built to order. *

Why do you need the 4-Bay Battery Analyzer?
This battery analyzer provides information by reading the internal resistance to find out the condition of the batteries and if they are still a reliable power supply.
