2 Applications
2.1 Intended Use / Use for Intended Purpose
Periodic testing and well-organized maintenance are necessary in order to assure the avail-
ability of stationary battery systems.
The METRACELL BT PRO is a multifunctional instrument for testing batteries and battery
blocks*. It can be used to determine the current status of the battery or battery block, and to
pinpoint concealed defects. The battery tester is used primarily for testing blocks or batteries
in stationary battery systems.
The instrument stores the measured values internally. All recorded measured values can be
viewed on site. Individual acquired values can be conveniently re-measured if necessary.
Data can be exported to the included BT PRO Manager software in order to store and evalu-
ate the measured values. Alternatively, they can be transferred to an external computer as a
CSV file.
The battery tester is a portable instrument which can be held in the hand while performing
measurements.
Safety of the operator, as well as that of the instrument, is only assured when it’s used for its
intended purpose.
