How to Use BT-3006MT Battery Load Tester
The BT-3006MT Battery Load Tester is designed for technicians, fleet operators, and service professionals needing reliable battery diagnostics across various voltage systems. Here’s how to use it effectively:
- Set Up Safely
Position the tester on a flat, stable surface using its integrated trolley. Ensure it is away from flammable materials and has adequate ventilation for fan cooling. - Connect the Cables
Use the insulated clamps to securely connect to the battery terminals. Red is positive, black is negative. Confirm the correct voltage setting (6V, 12V, or 24V) before proceeding. - Initiate the Test
Use the HD carbon pile rheostat to apply load gradually. Watch the dual-sprung analogue meters to monitor voltage drop and current draw during the test. - Monitor Thermal Load
Internal dual fans activate to prevent overheating during extended tests. The cooling vents help maintain operational efficiency under load. - Analyse Results
Read the ammeter and voltmeter values to determine battery performance under load. Compare with battery specifications for CCA and capacity. - After Testing
Safely disconnect the clamps and allow the system to cool down before moving. Store the unit in a dry, secure area when not in use.
FAQs about BT-3006MT Battery Load Tester
What types of batteries can the BT-3006MT test?
The BT-3006MT Battery Load Tester is designed for testing 6V, 12V, and 24V lead-acid batteries. It is suitable for:
- Passenger vehicles and light commercial batteries
