Spectro CA-12
Measures capacity of Lead Acid
15-second test
Device scans battery with 20-2000Hz
Uses multi-model electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (Spectro™)
Estimates capacity in 15 seconds
Provides higher CCA accuracy than with single-frequency AC methods
US patent 6,778,913
No comparable product on market
Capacity and CCA of aging starter batteries
CCA stays high to the end; engine cranks well
Capacity below 40% is considered end-of-life
Capacity is the leading health indicator
Test conditions
Battery must be 60% charged. “Charge and Retest” if below 60%
Specific Matrix displays capacity in %
Generic Solution passes or fails battery on a 40% capacity threshold
Applications
Warranty control at dealer networks
General service garages
Service of fleet vehicles
