Selects and Sizes Batteries Precisely
The PowerTrac DT allows users to select and size the proper battery for a given application. The amp-hours of discharge as well as the various voltage and current data saved makes selecting the proper amp-hour battery a breeze.
Tracks and Identifies Battery Problems
With the PowerTrac DT, battery problems can be easily tracked, identified, and solved. The unit can be installed in line with the battery connector and left in for a test period to collect data. All critical charge, discharge, and open event data is logged and saved in non-volatile on board memory for later download. Data is not lost when the unit is disconnected.
Wireless Data Transfer and Advanced User Interface
The PowerTrac DT incorporates wireless data transfer via an integrated IR port as well as advanced Palm and Windows software interfaces. Programming the unit and downloading and viewing data is done with the few taps on the Palm screen.
