SnapLock™ adapters
Find the right fit from adapters for major battery brands. For unusual packs, choose a universal adapter or ask us to build one to match.
A green light tells capacity met; amber points to a capacity that is below target.
Three-tier password protection settings.
Over-discharged batteries can be repaired and returned to service.
Current is automatically lowered if above limit. Service time is prolonged.
High power demand will put batteries on a waiting queue for a short time.
Basic Programs
| Auto | Exercises the batteries and applies Recondition if the user-set target capacity cannot be reached. |
| Charge | Applies fast charge with charge termination. |
| Prime | Prepares batteries by repeated cycling until the maximum capacity is reached. |
Advanced Programs
| Self-Discharge | Determines rate at which a battery loses charge. Reflects intrinsic safety. |
| Lifecycle | Cycles battery until the capacity fades to the set Target Selector threshold. |
| Discharge Only | Prepares battery for shipping and storage. Also checks charger function. |
| Extended Prime | Assist in formatting of battery. |
| OhmTest™ | Measure battery resistance with DC pulses; based on IEC61436 standard. |
| Runtime | Provides three discharge levels; programmable in hours and minutes. |
| Boost | Activates batteries that have been discharged too low. |
Custom Programs
Provide user-defined settings of charge, discharge, recondition, wait and repeat. You can set conditional gates that proceed on a different course if certain criteria are not met.

Battery Adapters FOR C7x00 Series
View our Cadex adapters for all devices. Each of the SnapLock™ adapters is compatible with our C7x00 Battery Analyzers and C8000 Advanced Battery Testing System. Search by keyword or sort by clicking any column. Contact Cadex if no Battery Adapter exists for the desired battery.
Options
PC-BatteryShop™ records voltage, current and temperature in real time. Supports up to 32 C7x00 battery analyzers, or 128 channels for simultaneous service.
Real-time graphs plotting current, voltage temperature.
Note: BatteryShop is compatible with Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10. It is not compatible with Windows Vista
PC Programming
Clicking on a battery model listed in PC-BatteryShop will program the battery adapter with the appropriate C-code. You can also choose a service program from the screen prior of inserting the battery.
Bar Code Label
Attaching an ID number on each battery simplifies fleet management. To service a battery, scan the label and insert the battery into the analyzer. PC-BatteryShop™ configures the analyzer and displays battery history.
Bar code label provides unique battery ID.
Service Labels
Service labels on battery state last service, due date, and performance with capacity and internal resistance. The AutoPrint function produces the label when removing the battery from the analyzer.
Labels are water resistant
