UNIVERSAL CUP

OVERVIEW

The W&W Analyzer X3& X6 is a programmable battery tester and battery cycler capable of testing a variety of battery chemistries such as; Lithium Ion, Lithium Polymer, Nickel Cadmium and Nickel Metal Hydride. Most mechanical shapes can be accommodated with a specially designed battery cup. See battery Cup description for more information.

FEATURES

Analyzes, condition and charges Nickel Cadmium and Nickel Metal Hydride batteries.

Analyzes and charge lithium Ion and lithium polymer batteries.

Universal cup

The Universal cup will allow one to evaluate batteries with different chemistries and cell counts within defined specifications. The Universal cup has one memory location that can be programed the same as the Learn Memory location in a standard cup.

During entry into the “Learn Mode”of the Universal cup, Battery Chemistry, Capacity, and the number of Cells Are prompted for data entry. Follow the Directions below to enter data for the Learn Mode.

Data Range

Chemistry (Lithium Ion, Nickel Cadmium, and Nickel Metal Hydride)

Capacity 100 - 4000 maH

# Of Cells

1-12 NiCd and 1-4 Li-ion

SELECTING “ LEARN “ FOR

 

 

Features a single button capable of multifunction and an easy to read display for a user interface.

Auto condition cycle for nickel batteries and life cycle mode for all batteries.

Quick Test (QT), determines the state of a battery, as well as one of two states

Batt>60% and Batt<60%

Prime mode, allows one to enable a Li-ion battery to be unlocked at the upper and lower end of

the Li-ion protective circuits range. Enabling Nickel based battery to acquire a charge to enable

the battery to be evaluated by the various modes of the X3 & X6.

Optional thermal printer for status and result printing.

PC program available for more advance user interfacing and graph generation.

Embedded OEM parameters or user defined profiles in “Learn Mode”.

*Important: It is important that when testing an UNKNOWN BATTERY in the learn mode that

you select the UNKNOWN state as opposed to GOOD. You can not perform a valid Quick test or an impedance test with the Universal cup.

One must observe the proper polarity when connecting the battery to the Universal cup. Should you connect the battery incorrectly, you will hair a buzzing sound, reverse the leads.

At this point you may perform all the standard operations that can be performed in stations; 2 3, 5 and 6 of the X3 and X6.

To change the cup settings for a different battery or for different parameters for the same battery, just repeat the Learn mod process again.
