BAT100 SERIES BATTERY CELL TESTERS

Ultra High Performance and Compact Cell Testing for R&D

BAT100 SERIES OVERVIEW

UNICO’s R&D Cell Tester is a ultra-high performance cell testing solution in an incredibly small package. It leads the industry with the highest energy density in the smallest footprint with up to (64) 300A channels in a single system. Built-in advanced features on each channel like EIS, DCIR, self-calibration, and waveform capture allows you to perform all your R&D testing without additional devices, saving significant space in your lab. If high performance testing with built-in advance functionality and a small footprint is your need, this is the solution.

Highest Performance, Smallest Footprint 75% Smaller Than Comparable Systems
