PRODUCT PROFILE
The SP61062 Battery Tester adopts what is currently the world's most advanced conductance
testing technology to easily, quickly and accurately measure the actual cold cranking amps (CCA)
capability of the vehicle starting battery, and its state of health. This tool assists maintenance
personnel to find the problem quickly and accurately. It will test all automotive cranking lead acid
batteries, including ordinary lead acid battery, AGM flat plate battery, AGM spiral battery, Gel
battery and EFB battery.
•Tests a battery with low charge, no need to full charge the battery before testing.
•Detects a bad battery cells.
•Indicates health status (or condition) of connected battery.
•Includes reverse polarity protection; incorrect battery connection will not damage the
tester or affect the vehicle or its battery.
•Testing standards include currently the world's majority of battery standards, CCA, BCI, CA,
MCA, JIS, DIN, IEC, EN, SAE, GB.
•Supports multi-languages, customer can select different language package, which includes:
English, French, German, Spanish, Italian and Polish.
PRODUCT FUNCTION
Battery test analyses a battery’s healthy status by calculating the actual cold cranking capability of
the battery and comparing this against its rated (new) capacity. This provides a reliable analysis of
the battery’s condition and what maintenance may be required for the battery. It can thereby
notify the user when to replace a battery in advance of its ultimate failure.
The Battery test is targeted to analyse the battery condition and calculate the actual cold cranking
capability of the battery including its aging extent. This provides reliable analysis evidence for the
test and maintenance of the battery. It notifies the user when to replace the battery prior to in
service failure.
The Cranking test is used to test and analyse the starter motor. By testing the actual cranking
current and cranking voltage of the starter motor, it is possible to determine starter motor
condition.
The Charging test is to monitor the charging system. Including alternator output and rectifier
diode function. This will find out whether the output voltage of the alternator is correct, the
rectifier is working and the charge current is normal.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS & WARNINGS
1. To prevent personal injury or damage to vehicles and/or the Battery Analyser, read this
instruction manual first and observe the following safety precautions at a minimum
whenever working on a vehicle:
2. Always perform automotive testing in a safe environment.
3. Wear safety eye protection that meets the AS/NZS 1337.1 standards.
4. Keep clothing, hair, hands, tools, test equipment, etc., away from all moving or hot engine
parts.
5. Operate in a well-ventilated work area; charging batteries can create explosive gases.
6. Chock drive wheels and never leave vehicle unattended while running tests.
7. Use extreme caution when working around the ignition coil, distributor cap, ignition wires
and spark plugs. These components create hazardous voltages when the engine is running.
8. Put transmission in PARK (for automatic transmission) or NEUTRAL (for manual
transmission) and make sure the parking break is engaged.
9. Keep a fire extinguisher suitable for petrol / chemical / electrical fires nearby.
10. Don't connect or disconnect any test equipment with ignition on or engine running.

INTERNAL RESISTANCE EXPLANATION
Internal Resistance (IR) is an important factor for accessing a battery’s capability. When a battery’s
internal resistance exceeds a specific value, the engine can't be started. The normal IR value of
cars should be less than 10mW, but there will be differences between different battery types and
those with greater or lesser CCA.
Normally, for the same kind of batteries, the lower the IR, the healthier the battery is, (short
circuit excepted).
VOLTAGE EXPLANATION
It is impossible for the voltage of the battery to show 100%. The maximum value is normally 98%
even after just being charged.
•98% Charged = Battery voltage above 12.59V
•75% Charged = Battery voltage 12.45V
•50% Charged = Battery voltage 12.15V
•Discharged condition = Battery voltage less than 12.00V
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
If testing batteries of low-frequency use, it is necessary to cycle (charge and discharge) the battery
several times before testing, normally 3-5 times will achieve a reliable test result. Only after
cycling the battery can the chemical properties of the battery be restored. This is particularly
important after long periods of no use. If after 3-5 times of battery charge and discharge, the
battery health state is still lower than 60%, battery replacement should be considered.
1. To extend battery life, Low use batteries, should be recharged every 2 months.
2. Please turn off the engine before testing.
3. When charging is finished, do not test immediately. Wait at least 10 minutes to allow the
battery charge to stabilise, then test. Even when testing an in vehicle battery, after the
engine is turned off (for the most accurate results) wait 10 minutes before testing.
4. In general, if the battery voltage is below 12.40V, recharge it.
BEFORE TESTING
Before testing, use a wire brush (not included) and alkaline cleaner (not included) to clean the
battery terminals, as any surface resistance on the terminal will negatively affect the test result.
Before testing an in-vehicle battery, ensure the ignition key is turned off. Make sure there is no
power drain from any other vehicle electronics and keep the car doors closed so interior lights do
not illuminate.

Press ENTER key again to start the charging test.
NOTE: Do not shut down the engine during the test.
All electrical appliance and device are in OFF.
Turn off any electrical appliances in the vehicle during the
test as it will affect the accuracy of the test result.
TESTER WILL DO THE FOLLOWING TESTS IN SEQUENCE:
RIPPLE TEST
For ripple test, tester will display the real time ripple and
meanwhile, shows ripple volt and charging volt values at
the bottom line.
It takes approx. 6 seconds for the ripple test.
CHARGING TEST
After the ripple test, tester will automatically start the
loaded voltage test.
Loaded Volt Test takes approx. 3 seconds, then it hints
"Step on accelerator to increase engine rotation speed"
Operate accordingly to increase the engine rotating speed
to 2500rpm or above, and keep for 5 seconds.
Tester starts the charging volt test after it has detected a
increase in rpm.

After the test is finished, the tester displays the effective

NOTE: If no increase in rpm is detected, it is the fault of
alternator regulator or the connection with the battery
has failed. Tester will try 3 times to detect, if still failed, it
will skip the increase rpm detect and the test result
displays "No Volt Output". See below:
Check the connection between alternator 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 alternator to see whether it is slipping or has run off.
Check the connection between alternator and battery.
If both of the drive belt and the connection are in good condition, follow the
manufacturer's suggestion to eliminate alternator fault.
3. Charging Volt: High
Alternator output volt is high.
Since most of the vehicle alternators use a internal regulator, the alternator
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 alternator volt output is detected. Check the alternator connection cable
and the belt whether they are in a sound condition.
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 faulty diode.
