The Series 4000 is a range of fully automated, computerized battery test systems that provide the highest level of specifications and features available in a Maccor test system. From the base system that provides exceptional accuracy and high speed testing capability with an advanced level of integrity, features can be added to allow the Series 4000 system to perform virtually any type of cell or battery test, with any battery chemistry.

The Series 4000 systems are available in sizes from 8 to 256 test channels. Systems are custom manufactured to meet your specific needs. They can be configured with a wide range of voltage and current ranges, and can be fitted with additional hardware to provide a number of optional features and capabilities.

Supplied as a complete turnkey system, the Series 4000 consists of a test cabinet, PC computer and test software, with options of a UPS and Printer. The test cabinet and PC computer are connected via a high-speed 10 Base T communications network. As soon as AC power is connected to the test system, it is ready for immediate use.

To provide maximum flexibility and speed of operation, single board computer controllers within the test cabinet provide control of the tests and collect the initial data. Each controller supports from one to eight test channels, dependent on the application. In addition, the test cabinet contains the individually controlled electronic loads, and power supplies for charging purposes.

Each test channel is operated independently. This allows different tests to be performed on different test channels simultaneously, with tests being started independently, or in a block. Once started, tests operate completely automatically until the appropriate test end condition is reached.
