During a power outage, crucial telecommunication and radio equipment must be kept operating by batteries. Unfortunately, however, the capacity of such batteries can drop significantly for a number of reasons before their calculated life expectancy is reached. Battery capacity should thus be checked to prevent expensive downtime in the event of a power failure.

The most reliable way to determine battery capacity is to conduct a discharge test. The TORKEL 820 Battery Load Unit features a unique design that combines efficiency with portability. Using TORKEL 820 you can discharge 24 and 48 V batteries at a current of 270 A, and 12 V batteries at 135 A. Moreover, two or more TORKEL 820 units and/or extra load units, TXL, can be linked together if you need higher current. Discharging proceeds at constant current, constant power or constant resistance, or in accordance with a pre-selected load profile.

TORKEL 820 issues a warning and/or shuts down the test automatically when a) the voltage has dropped to a certain level, b) discharging has continued through a certain time interval or c) a certain amount of capacity has been dissipated.
