1 Product Summary
1.1 Product Profile
BA1000 Battery Tester adopts currently the world's most advanced conductance testing technology to easily, quickly and accurately measure
the actual cold cranking amps capability of the vehicle starting battery, Health state of the battery itself, and common fault of the vehicle
starting system and charging system, which can help maintenance personnel to find the problem quickly and accurately, thus to achieve
quick vehicle repair.
1. Test all automotive cranking lead acid battery, including ordinary lead acid battery, AGM flat plate battery, AGM spiral battery, and Gel
battery, EFB battery, etc.
2. Directly detect bad cell battery.
3. Polarity reverse connection protection, reverse connection will not damage the tester or affect the vehicle and battery.
4. Directly test the battery with loss of electricity, no need to full charge before testing.
5. Testing standards include currently the world's majority of battery standards, CCA, BCI, CA, MCA, JIS, DIN, IEC, EN, SAE, GB.
6. Support multi-languages, customer can select different language package, which includes:, English, Spanish, French, German,Dutch, etc.
Other languages can also be customized according to user's need.
1.2 Product Function
Main functions of BA1000 battery tester include: battery test, cranking test, charging test and other additional functions.
Battery test is mainly targeted to analyze the battery 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 notifies the user to replace battery in
advance when the battery getting aged.
Cranking test is mainly to test and analyze the starting motor. Through testing the actual required cranking current and cranking voltage of
the starting motor, it can find out whether the starting motor works fine. There are several reasons why the starting motor is abnormal:
lubricating system fault causing the starting loaded torque increasing or rotor friction of the starting motor causing the 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 fine and the charging current is normal. Suppose one of the above
mentioned parts is not in normal situation, it will lead to over charge or incomplete charge of the battery, thus the battery will be quickly
damaged and also greatly shorten the using life of other loaded electrical appliance.
Additional functions include: Set language, voltmeter and screen brightness adjustment.

Normally, cranking voltage value lower than 9.6V is regarded as abnormal and it is OK if it is higher than 9.6V.
Test result of the tester includes actual cranking voltage and actual cranking time.
When cranking test is abnormal, battery test result will also be displayed at the same time.
This is for the convenience of the maintenance personnel to quickly know the whole state of the starting system according to the data.
After testing finished, do not shut down the engine, press OK key to OK Charging Test.
3.3 Charging System
Please choose "Charging Test" and press OK key to start the charging test.
NOTE: Do not shut down the engine during the test. All electrical appliance and device are in OFF state. Turn on/off any electrical appliance
in the vehicle during the test will affect the accuracy of the test result.
Tester will do the following tests in a sequence:
Loaded Volt Test takes approx. 3 seconds, then it hints "Step on accelerator to increase engine rotating speed"
Operate accordingly to increase the engine rotating speed to 2500turns or above, and keep for 5 seconds.
Tester starts the charging volt test after increase rev detected.
After the test finished, tester displays the effective charging volts, ripple test result and charging test result.
NOTE: If no increase rev detected, it shall be the fault of generator regulator or connection with battery failed. Tester will try 3 times to further
detect, if still failed, it will skip the increase rev detect and the test result displays "No Volt Output". See below:

Check the connection between generator and battery, then retest.
Charging Test Result:
1) Charging Volt: Normal
Charging system shows the generator output normal, no problem detected.
2) Charging Volt: Low
Charging volt of the charging system is low.
Check drive belt of the generator whether slip or running off. Check the connection between generator and battery is normal or not.
If both of the drive belt and the connection are in good condition, follow the manufacturer's suggestion to eliminate generator fault.
3) Charging Volt: High
Generator output volt is high.
Since most of the vehicle generators are using internal regulator, the generator assembly has to be replaced.(Some old style cars are using
external regulator, then directly replace the regulator.)
The normal high volt of the voltage regulator is maximum 14.7±0.5V.If charging volt is too high, it will overcharge the battery. Therefore the
battery life will be shortened and troubles will be caused.
4) No Volt Output:
No generator volt output is detected. Check the generator connection cable and the belt whether they are normal.
5) Diode Test:
Through the test of charging current ripple, tester will find out whether the diode is normal or not. When ripple volt is too high, it proves at
least one diode is damaged. Check and replace the diode.
Till now, all tests have been done.
