BATTERY HiTESTER 3555

Portable Battery Tester for Testing Compact Storage Batteries for Mobile Devices

Hioki portable battery testers support the maintenance of UPS and storage batteries critical to the life support of all businesses. The 3551 is a 300 mΩ to 30 Ω/30V portable battery internal resistance tester suitable for testing high-capacity alkali and lead-acid storage batteries used in mobile devices.

Key Features

  • For use with compact batteries such as NiCad and nickel-metal hydride
  • Instantaneously diagnose degradation (PASS, CAUTION, FAIL) by measuring internal resistance and voltage (*1)
  • *1:Operator must input the criteria for PASS/FAIL judgments according to the type of battery being measured.

Model No. (Order Code)

3555 Discontinued
Note: The 3555 is unable to make PASS/FAIL judgments for lithium-ion batteries due to the extremely small magnitude of the changes in their internal resistance. For applications involving measurement of batteries with low internal resistance, for example lead acid batteries, use the Battery Tester BT3554-50.
