Entwodiksyon
The AUTOOL BT360 Car Battery Tester is a professional diagnostic tool designed to analyze the health status of 12V automotive starting batteries. It accurately measures the actual cold cranking capability (CCA) and the aging extent of the battery, providing reliable data for testing and maintenance. This device supports various battery types including regular flooded, AGM flat plate, AGM spiral, and gel batteries, and adheres to multiple testing standards such as GB, BCI, CCA, EN, CA, MCA, DIN, SAE, JIS, and IEC.
The BT360 offers four primary testing modes: Quick Test, Standard Test, Starting Test, and Charging Test. Its advanced conductance testing technology assesses battery performance parameters like voltage, charge, and lifespan. The integrated standard battery testing parameter ranges facilitate data analysis and comparison, enabling technicians to quickly diagnose common faults in automotive starting and charging systems.
