The new generation of AVL CELL TESTER™
HIGHEST QUALITY AND ACCURACY OF TESTING RESULTS
The AVL CELL TESTER™ 600A uses a unique current measurement
technique providing the best accuracy (0.01 % of actual value) among high
current cell testers while using only one current measurement range. This
provides the following benefits:
• Reduced test programming complexity by avoiding range switching
• Accuracy is proportional to the output, enabling testing capacity with
always the same proportional error
• Such high accuracy provides more reliable results and reduces test time
by enabling accurate coulombic efficiency analysis
Another feature is real-world replication thanks to high dynamic control.
With the fastest rise time on the market (0.5 ms) together with 1 ms control
and acquisition frequency, this cell tester can apply
realistic current or power profiles and adapt test-
ing cycles based on real time models.
The CELL TESTER 600A is fully integrated and
compatible with the AVL automation software
AVL PUMA 2™ Battery and AVL LYNX 2™.
It uses a real-time EtherCAT interface with a
setting and measurement update rate of 1 kHz.
The battery cell is the most important component in the electric power
train, both in terms of cost and performance. To ensure affordable and du-
rable battery packs, it is vital to master the electrochemical processes within
the cell. It is therefore crucial to conduct precise, reliable and accelerated
cell testing while minimizing the operation of your testbed.
To improve and accelerate electric vehicle development, AVL has developed
a series of battery cell testers. These are bi-directional, multi-channel DC
power supplies that test, diagnose, characterize and validate battery cells.
They can achieve an output current that ranges from ±2 A to ± 2,400 A
thanks to their multiple variants and the parallelization of their channels.
