Ring unveils its new battery analyser

Ring’s new battery analyser (RBAG950) can provide a complete health check of the battery and electrical systems in both 12v and 24v vehicles.

Suitable for 12v lead acid, AGM, EFB, gel and LiFePO4 lithium, as well as start/stop batteries, this multi-functional unit is able to test the battery, alternator, starter and vehicle earth, via its intuitive graphical interface. The results can then be printed using the built-in thermal printer, viewed on other devices by using the removable SD card, or even through the QR code.

The battery analyser test simply carries out a battery health check and gives the user a reading detailing the state of the battery, whereas the alternator test, for both normal and smart 12v/24v alternators, will detect battery charging problems by checking if the alternator voltages fall within normal operating ranges.

In a similar vein is the starter test for both 12v and 24v vehicles, which checks for potential starting problems by measuring battery voltage drop during engine cranking. The final test is the earth test to check that the earth connections between battery, engine and chassis are in good condition.
