Battery Test System Exploits Regenerative Technology

Intepro Systems’ benchtop/rack mount Procyon Battery Test System handles high-performance electro mobility battery packs. The system relies Intepro’s bi-directional charge/discharge regenerative power stage that returns over 93% of the power back to the ac mains, thereby lowering operating costs, reducing system size, and eliminating/reducing external cooling requirements.

 

The company’s “fill-in-the blanks” PowerStar Test Sequencer software performs test setup and operation and offers Programming without Coding that allows users to define the charge and drive profiles unique to their vehicles or to a standard. Internal resistance measurements and cell balancing can be performed as required.

 

The system offers a scalable solution for battery packs from 5 kW to 480 kW, with voltages from 40V to 1,500V and discharge currents up to 8,000A. The modular, building block approach allows the system to be expanded, upgraded, or repurposed for new vehicles, batteries, and changing test standards. Standard battery tests include battery balance, battery charge/discharge, battery parametics, drive simulation, and internal resistance.
