PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
The Logic Series battery incorporates unique battery management
features. Together with Anton/Bauer diagnostic accessories, an effective
preventative maintenance program can easily be created to optimize the
return on battery investment and greatly simplify battery management
operations.
The PowerCharger
®
, coupled with a DDM (Diagnostic Discharge
Module), will provide a complete battery management system. The
PowerCharger will allow you to run diagnostic evaluations. (Please
reference the PowerCharger Owner’s Manual for additional information.)
The older style MP4-D, coupled with a DM-4, as well as an MP-4 or MP-8
complete with a PROBE
®
, will allow you to run similar diagnostic
programs as a PowerCharger.
It is strongly recommended that all users of the Logic Series Battery
System have at least one PowerCharger complete with a DDM, MP4-
D/DM-4 or MP-4, MP-8/PROBE combination. Such a combination can
also interface via the RS-232 port provided to a printer producing hard
copy battery reports automatically, calibrated capacity, and a complete
voltage/time discharge graph.
Logic Series batteries and chargers together form a battery management
system that will maximize battery performance, eliminate battery
problems in the field and reduce costs by prolonging battery life and
precluding equipment down time.
