Chroma
17020C Regenerative Battery Pack Test System
High-precision system designed for repeated and reliable testing of secondary battery modules and packs; ideal for incoming and outgoing inspections as well as capacity, performance, production, and qualification testing. As a regenerative battery pack test system, the Chroma 17020C recycles discharge energy back to the grid while delivering 10kW to 80kW per channel at 150V.

Product Description

Chroma 17020C Battery Tester is a high-precision, regenerative system designed for repeated and reliable testing of secondary battery modules and packs. Offering highly accurate sourcing and measurement, the 17020C is ideal for incoming and outgoing inspections as well as capacity, performance, production, and qualification testing.

Regenerative Battery Discharge Capabilities

The test system efficiently recycles the energy discharged from a battery module, either from one channel to other charging channels or back to the grid, saving power and reducing thermal footprint.

Multiple Independent Channels

Supports dedicated charge/discharge tests on multiple battery modules or packs with distinct test characteristics. Channels can be paralleled for higher current requirements, offering flexibility between high channel count and high-current test.

Flexible Programming Functions

Operated with Chroma’s user-friendly Battery Pro X software, which allows easy creation and execution of tests without needing advanced programming skills. Features include graphically aided test creation, pre-defined profiles, real-time monitoring, and integration with external equipment.

Rapid Slew Rate

The 17020C features a -90% to +90% slew rate of 10ms, allowing it to replicate real drive profile conditions for accurate simulation of dynamic driving scenarios.

Safety Features

Includes Battery Polarity Check, Over Voltage Protection, Over Current Protection Check, Over Temperature Protection, and VDE-4105-AE Islanding Detection. Tested data is securely stored in non-volatile memory to prevent data loss during power or communication failures. With flexible programming functionality and user-friendly operating software, the Chroma 17020C provides a convenient, robust, and efficient solution for comprehensive battery test.
