1.0 - Introduction

1.1- BESA-12P (Battery Electrical System Analyser)

This Analyser uses the modern technology in battery testing which can test

batteries as they are without charging before test. Testing procedures are quick

and easy with repeatable results. Test Results can be printed directly on its

attached printer or it can be stored in the computer for records.

1. Battery Test:

Analyses the battery condition using microprocessor controlled testing

methods without the need of fully charging it before test.

The unit consumes very little current during testing hence the test can be

repeated numerous times without worry of draining the battery and its

results are highly accurate.

Extremely safe as it does not create any sparks during clamp on and it

takes less than 7 seconds to obtain the full analysed results of tested

battery.

2. Grounding Test:

Analyses the condition of the electrical return circuit contacts resistance

which were connected to the engine or chassis body from the battery

terminal with results and recommendations display after test.

3. Starter Test:

Checks the cranking effectiveness of the battery to predict when the

battery will fail to crank a vehicle basing on voltage profiles with results

and recommendations display.

4. Alternator Test:

This test checks the alternator charging condition during load at 2,000

RPM and without load at 3,000 RPM with results and recommendations

display after each test.

This Analyser is maintenance free and does not require internal batteries. It

powers up when connected to the battery posts during testing or through an

external 12 Volts DC source for later review of the test results.

The operation is fast and simple. When hooked up to the battery posts, the

displayed instructions on the screen will lead you through and a warning tone to

caution you to perform the correct steps. In event that you need assistance,

there is a key. It will display information about each function when selected.

Its result is consistent and repeatable and can be performed numerous times

without heating up the unit. It is very safe as it does not create any sparks when

connected to the battery terminals during testing on the vehicle.

After the test, the results will be stored in its memory and can be reviewed again

later. Also it can be printed directly on the attached mobile printer. It is equipped

with an USB port to be connected to the PC to store the results or have it printed

out from normal computer printer.

2.0 Safety Measures:

For safety reasons, read this manual thoroughly before operating the Tool.

Always refer to and follow the safety instructions and testing procedures

provided by the car or equipment manufacturer. The safety messages presented

below and throughout this user‟s manual are reminders to the operator to exercise

extreme care when using this test instrument.

2.1 Safety Precautions:

When the engine is running, it produces carbon monoxide, a

toxic and poisonous gas. Always operate the vehicle in a well

ventilated area. Do not breathe exhaust gases –they are

hazardous that can lead to death.

To protect your eyes from propellant object such as caustic

liquids, always wear safety eye protection.

Fuel and battery vapors are highly flammable.

DO NOT SMOKE NEAR THE VEHICLE DURING TESTING.

When engine is running, many parts (such as pulleys,

coolant fan, belts, etc) turn at high speed. To avoid serious

injury, always be alert and keep a safe distance from these

parts.

Before starting the engine for testing or trouble shooting,

always make sure the parking brakes is firmly engaged. Put

the transmission in Park (automatic transmission) and

Neutral (manual transmission).

Always block the drive wheels.

Never leave vehicle unattended while testing.

Never lay tools on vehicle battery. You may short the

terminals together causing harm to yourself, the tools or the

battery.

Engine parts become very hot when engine is running. To

prevent severe burns, avoid contact with hot engine parts.

Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry while working on

engine. Loose clothing can get caught in fan, pulleys, belts,

etc. Jewelry can conduct current and can cause severe

burns if comes in contact between power source and

ground.

When the engine is running, be cautious when working

around the ignition coil, distributor cap, ignition wires and

spark plugs. They are HIGH VOLTAGE components that can

cause electrical Shock.

Always keep a fire extinguisher readily available and easily

accessible in the workshop.

2.2 Other Precautions:

This Battery Analyser is meant for testing of 12 Volts batteries only.

Its operating voltage is from 9V ~ 15V DC and should not be tested on 24V

directly. It will cause damage the unit. For 12V x 2 batteries (in series or

parallel), disconnect the connections and test them individually.

Battery that has just been charged by the charger contains surface charge

and it should be discharged by turning ON the Head lights for 3~5 minutes

before testing.

Always attached the analyser clips on the lead side of the battery terminal

posts during testing so that it has a good contact. This will provide better

and accurate results.

Do not attach the analyser clips directly onto the steel bolt that tightened to

the battery terminal posts; this may give inaccurate readings or inconsistent

results. (Note: This also applies to all other battery testing methods.)

If the battery terminal posts were oxidised or badly corroded and the

connections were bad, the analyser will prompt you to check the connections.

In this case, clean the terminal posts and performs testing directly on the

terminal posts it-self.

During testing on the battery whist it is still in the car, make sure the engine

is OFF.

Do not store the analyser near high humidity or temperature area. Exposing

to extreme temperatures will cause damage to the unit.

3.0 Working with Batteries

Lead-acid batteries contain a sulfuric acid electrolyte, which is a highly corrosive

poison and will produce gasses when recharged and explode if ignited. It can hurt

you badly.

When working with batteries, make sure you have plenty of ventilation, remove your

hand jewelry, watch and wear protective eyewear (safety glasses), clothing, and

exercise caution.

Do not allow battery electrolyte to mix with salt water. Even small quantities of this

combination will produce chlorine gas that can KILL you!

Whenever possible, please follow the manufacturer's instructions for testing,

jumping, installing, charging and equalising batteries.

Never disconnect a battery cable from a vehicle with the engine

running because the battery acts like a filter for the electrical system.

Unfiltered [pulsating DC] electricity can damage expensive electronic

components, e.g., emissions computer, radio, charging system, etc.

Turn off all electrical switches and components; turn off the ignition

before disconnecting the battery.

For non-sealed batteries, check the electrolyte level. Make sure it is

covering the plates, and it is not frozen before starting to recharge

(especially during winters).

Do not add distilled water if the electrolyte is covering the top of the

plates because during the recharging process, it will get warm and

expand. After recharging has been completed, recheck the level.

Reinstall the vent caps BEFORE recharging, recharge ONLY in

well-ventilated areas, and wear protective goggle.

Do NOT smoke or cause sparks or flames while the battery is being

recharged because batteries give off explosive gasses.

If your battery is an AGM or a sealed flooded type, do NOT recharge

with current ABOVE 12% of the battery's RC rating (or 20% of the

ampere-hour rating).

Gel cells should be charged over a 20-hour period and never over the

manufacturer's recommended level or over 14.1 Volts DC.

Follow the battery and charger manufacturer's procedures for

connecting and disconnecting cables and other steps to minimize the

possibility of an explosion or incorrectly charging the battery.

You should turn the charger OFF before connecting or disconnecting

cables to a battery.

Do not wiggle the cable clamps while the battery is recharging,

because a spark might occur, and this could cause an explosion.

Good ventilation or a fan is recommended to disperse the gasses

created by the recharging process.

If a battery becomes hot, over 43.3 °C (110 °F), or violent gassing or

spewing of electrolyte occurs, turn the charger off temporarily or

reduce the charging rate.

When charging the battery in the car with an external MANUAL

charger, make sure that it will not damage the vehicle's electrical

system or components with high voltages.

Even if this is a remote possibility, it is best to disconnect the vehicle's

battery cables from the battery BEFORE connecting the charger.
