The Hioki BT3554-52 PRO KIT Lead-Acid and UPS Battery Tester Kit supports the maintenance of UPS and storage batteries that are critical to many businesses. The BT3554-52 PRO KIT features the BT3554-50 battery tester, which sets the standard for assessing the deterioration and remaining life of UPS and other lead-acid batteries. Since the battery's internal resistance and voltage are measured using the impedance method, diagnostics can be performed while the battery is connected to its host device, without taking it offline. Proprietary noise reduction technology allows more accurate measurement, even in noisy environments.

When the BT3554-50 is paired with a dedicated mobile app (GENNECT Cross), the mobile device will provide audio guidance announcing the next battery number to be measured. This feature helps prevent erroneous measurements. Users can also set up measurement locations information and battery numbers in advance to create profiles to which measurement data and diagnostic results will be linked. This capability simplifies data management, even when performing diagnostic work on large numbers of batteries.

By using its comparator function to simultaneously measure the internal resistance and voltage of a lead-acid, nickel-cadmium, or nickel-hydride battery, the BT3554-50 can generate comparative judgments quantifying degradation of the cell based on user-specified threshold values. Furthermore, voltage sign detection facilitates instantaneous determination of whether batteries have been connected properly in newly installed UPS systems.

In order to capture battery condition data with the Hioki BT3554-50 Battery Tester, simply touch the test leads to the battery terminals. The BT3554-50 auto-hold function automatically holds measured values once they stabilize. The instrument's auto-memory function, which automatically stores measured values resulting from the auto-hold function in its internal memory, further streamlines work tasks.

The BT3554-52 PRO KIT also features the L2020 Pin Type Lead, which has been specially designed with L-shaped tips. The lead improves testing efficiency by allowing users reach deep into the battery racks to completely probe the terminals. The design of the lead significantly improves ease of use when inspecting batteries installed in distribution panels and other confined locations.

The BT3554-52 PRO KIT includes the Z3210 Wireless Adapter, which allows measured values captured by the BT3554-50 Battery Tester to be displayed and saved onto a mobile device wirelessly. The results can also be used to create automatic reports: simply install the free GENNECT Cross app onto a mobile device and connect to the Hioki BT3554-50. Reports created on a mobile device can even be e-mailed to the office to further increase work efficiency. Data uploaded by the Gennect Cross app can also be loaded into a PC for viewing the historical state of the specified battery as a graph.

When measuring a number of batteries in a large area, the included shoulder strap allows users to easily carry the instrument while making measurements. Or if there are many batteries at a single location, the BT3554-52 PRO KIT provides the Z5020 Magnetic Strap to hang the instrument on a wall during work.
