Features
The Cadex C7x00 C-Series battery analyzers are more than programmable power supplies to charge and discharge batteries; they assess the condition of a battery and provide intelligence to safely service them. Protected algorithms with redundant safety features identify a faulty battery and terminate the service with message when so needed. |
The green light on the charger does not reflect battery performance. “Ready” simply indicates that the battery is fully charged. A battery should be replaced when the capacity drops to 70–80%. Most users are unaware of capacity fade until an unforeseen power loss occurs. Nor should a battery be replaced too soon. The Cadex C7x00 C-Series battery analyzer enables to keep batteries for their optimal life span. |
The C7x00 C-Series analyzer test batteries by a discharge/charge cycles or a rapid-test function. A full cycle is the most reliable method but it is not practical for large batteries. Rapid-testing is not available for all batteries. |

Service Programs
Automated programs support all your battery needs and the 18 available service programs are grouped below into Basic, Advanced and Custom.Basic Programs
- Auto – Exercises the batteries and applies Recondition if the user-set target capacity cannot be reached
- Charge – Applies a fast charge only
- Prime – Prepares batteries for field use by repeated cycling until the maximum capacity is reached
- QuickSort™ – Sorts lithium-ion packs into Good, Low and Poor in 30 seconds
Advanced Programs
- Self-Discharge – Determines the rate at which a battery loses charge
- Life Cycle – Counts number of charge/discharge cycles before the battery capacity drops to selected target level
- Discharge Only – Discharges battery for storage; tests chargers
- Extended Prime – Applies a 16-hour trickle charge, followed by Prime. Prepares difficult to charge batteries
- OhmTest – Measures internal battery resistance in 6 seconds
- Runtime – Simulates field application with three adjustable load currents and time intervals
- Boost – Reactivates seemingly dead batteries that have been discharged too low
- QuickTest™ – Provides battery state-of-health in 3 minutes. Needs specific battery matrix
- Q-Learn – Provides initial QuickTest™ matrix by scanning a good battery. Service time is 3-5 minutes
- Learn – Improves QuickTest™ matrix by scanning batteries with different state-of-health status. Service time is 3-8 hours per battery
Custom programs
Four separate Custom programs allow user-defined programs composed of charge, discharge, recondition, wait and repeats. The programs follow a different path if a certain condition occurs.Software
No system is complete without well-designed software. PC-BatteryShop™ enhances the Cadex C7x00 C-Series battery analyzers by being able to observe voltage, current and temperature in real-time graphics. Advance the Cadex analyzer into a true workhorse.Note: BatteryShop is compatible with Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10. It is not compatible with Windows Vista.

Maintaining fleet batteries
Useless Batteries made Valuable
Warranty batteries, and those that had been returned, no longer need to be discarded. Studies show that 90% of returned mobile phone batteries can be restored with Cadex battery analyzers. The QuickSort™ program provides a clear assessment of the battery condition in 30 seconds. Battery testing has become a viable business model that earns money and saves the environment. For storefront service, visit our C5100. |
Maintaining consistent quality in battery manufacturing
With PC-BatteryShop™, the PC becomes the command center from which to enter parameters and program sequences. You can customize charge terminations, fine-tune the end-of-discharge thresholds, and observe voltage, current and temperature in real-time graphics on the PC monitor. Cadex analyzers will test batteries at a fraction of cost to competitive systems. |
Accessories
Custom Battery Adapters
Custom-built SnapLock™ adapters allow easy interface with commercial packs. The adapters contain C-codes that configure the analyzer to the correct setting. Each adapter can be programmed with 10 C-codes to service different battery types. Cadex has developed over 3200 custom adapters to meet the needs of our customers, and regularly creates new ones. Adapters are required to connect batteries to the C7x00 C-Series analyzers, and our most popular ones are now available for purchase online at cadex.com/shop. If your adapter is not listed on our Battery Adapter Catalog, please contact us. |
