Fluke BT21ANG Advanced Battery Analyser

Description

A compact and rugged troubleshooting, maintenance, and performance testing tool, the Fluke BT21ANG Advanced Battery Analyser is designed for checking individual stationary batteries and battery banks. It automatically records all the values captured during testing; this data can be reviewed before it is downloaded enabling on-the-go analysis.

The Fluke 500 Series Battery Analyzers Product Introduction

The Fluke BT21ANG Advanced Battery Analyser can measure:

Insulation Resistance
AC/DC voltage
AC/DC current
Ripple voltage
Frequency
Temperature
Intercell strap resistance: measures the resistance of intercell connections between batteries in a string

Automatic and Manual sequence testing with automatic measurement storage makes conducting checks quicker and easier as you no longer need to press a button each time you want to save the reading. Furthermore, user-defined voltage and resistance thresholds enable fast PASS/FAIL/WARN testing with visual and audible alerts.

The quick, guided setup ensures you are capturing the right data while visual and audio feedback cues reduce measurement confusion. Moreover, the Fluke BT21ANG Advanced Battery Analyser offers quick, on-site data analysis: you can compare trends, interrogate results, and create reports. Alternatively, Wi-Fi and USB interfaces facilitate the transfer of data to a laptop or PC, enabling analysis and report generation using Fluke’s PC software. Additionally, wireless communication allows data to be transferred to an iOS smartphone or tablet. It can be reviewed and emailed to colleagues and/or clients via Fluke’s iOS app.

The Fluke BT21ANG Advanced Battery Analyser’s design also adds to its ease of use; for example, it includes:

Ergonomic test leads: rugged coaxial two-pole kelvin test pins with a remote save button increase efficiency.
Test probe extenders: these long-reach, straight, and angled probes enable access to double-stacked cells.
Intelligent test probe set: these test probes feature verbal audio feedback and include an integrated LCD and save button; they capture and automatically save voltage and infrared temperature readings.

A 7.4V 3000 mAh lithium-ion battery delivers an operating time of eight continuous hours. Finally, the Fluke BT21ANG Advanced Battery Analyser has a safety rating of CAT III 600V, 1000V DC, making it suitable for conducting measurements around battery power supply equipment.

The Fluke BT21ANG Advanced Battery Analyser is an ergonomic, easy-to-use tool with an eclectic selection of measurement and logging capabilities.
