Bitrode’s model LCV is a full-featured life cycle test system for development of automotive, industrial and consumer batteries. The LCV provides increased laboratory accuracy, flexibility and efficiency, making it an ideal solution for testing needs in designing consistently high quality batteries, verifying rigorous battery specifications and research and development of new battery materials.
- Voltage: 0-200V
- Current: Up to 1000A (8000A in parallel)
- Circuits: up to 16
- Network: Ethernet
- Power: up to 480kW
- Accuracy: ±0.1% of FS*
- Data Sampling Rate: up to 10mS
*Accuracy values are conservative assuming operation will be through the standard temperature range of 0-40˚ C and RH from 10-90% (non-condensing). Units calibrated and maintained in a temperature and humidity controlled environment can expect an accuracy of 0.02-0.05%FS.
