REGATRON's Battery Tester Series G5.BT: Bringing Vehicle Electrification and Energy Storage Forward

REGATRON's smart solution for testing both battery modules and packs saves cost thanks to its wide test capabilities and application-specific, ready-to-use features.

Both battery module and pack testing are possible thanks to the high auto-ranging factor of 3. Furthermore, REGATRON's advanced modular concept allows the digitally controlled operation of power supplies in parallel, series, and mixed operation. Thus a very large, unrivaled current-voltage range is available to the user.

Multiple test channels can be provided within a single cabinet. Cabinets can be built according to the protection classes IP20/23/54. Thanks to the very compact design of the G5 power supply units, the total footprint is minimal.

REGATRON's G5-battery-tester can be dimensioned precisely according to the user's needs thanks to the available standard unit power classes of 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54 kW, and multiples thereof. Likewise, a power extension of the battery test system in these fine power levels is possible at any time in the field.

 

The well-known high accuracy of the G5 power supply family and the high dynamic response fully meet the requirements of battery test applications. With the operating and service software G5.Control, the test and charging/discharging figures can be set within a wide range, e.g. ramps can be programmed in the simplest way. Furthermore, G5.Control offers a powerful built-in 8-channel digital recording scope, extended analysis and parameterization options, and calibration functionality.

Maximum speed or minimum overshoot? The figure below shows that the dynamic parameters of the G5.BT series can be adapted to a specific task. The REGATRON power supply G5.BT.18.80.676, which was used for the measurements, has the following nominal output values: 18 kW / 80 VDC / 676 A.

 

REGATRON's G5 battery testing solution offers a number of additional features that simplify the user's work, such as the following functionality:

The built-in G5.RPP feature:

• Reliably prevents damage and sparking caused by accidental reverse polarity between battery and battery tester,
• provides overcurrent protection/soft start in case of unmatched voltages between battery and battery tester, and
• prevents creeping deep discharge of the battery in the "voltage off" state by means of complete galvanic disconnection.

Further features:

• Increased emergency stop reliability supporting performance level PL c / PL e according to EN ISO 13849
• CAN interface offering high transmission rates, a customizable and easy to integrate protocol, and digital inputs/outputs for logic functions
• Optional BatControl application software for laboratory or development use.
