Description

The BCT-468 is the ultimate handheld electrical system tester specifically designed for the heavy-duty truck market. Through the use of state of the art digital circuitry, a separable tablet and control module, and Auto Meter’s optional AMPNET cloud data management services, the BCT-468 delivers accurate, reliable, and fast testing results all-in-one new innovative Wi-Fi enabled device.

Features

• Innovative tablet based truck electrical system analyzer with wireless remote load module

• Includes a ruggedized control module with a 8”, wide viewing angle touch screen user interface. Load module lithium-ion battery is both rechargeable and replaceable

• True load test for 6 and 12 volt batteries (including AGM)

• Performs battery pack testing (up to 4 batteries)

• Tests 12 and 24 volt starting and charging systems

• Tests 6 and 12 volt batteries rated between 100-1600 CCA

• Provides a significant load during testing for incredible accuracy, even on partially discharged batteries

• Provides Quick PM tests for battery pack, starter, alternator (Up to 450 Amp output), and cable voltage drop tests

• Provides full electrical system test similar to the RP-129B

• Delivers a clear snapshot of cranking RPM for enhanced diagnostics (patent pending)

• Includes automatic voltage drop testing on starter, alternator, and lift-gate cables and connectors

• Includes built in non-contact IR battery temperature measurement. Also includes port for optional inductive current probe

• Wi-Fi enabled for automatic real time data collection and customer communications

• Performs lift gate testing with separately sold adaptors

• Field replaceable, plug and play leads for easy tool maintenance

• Step by step graphical troubleshooting instructions guide user through the testing process and clear, next step advice

Operation

•With the use of a microprocessor, a substantial true load, and AutoMeter’s patented digital pulse load testing protocol, the BCT-468 accurately measures the battery’s capacity and recovery for a comprehensive state of health assessment. Capable of detecting bad cells and “near end of life” conditions.

•The BCT-468 applies a true load to the battery in order to simulate real world operating conditions

• Charging System test results measure alternator current output, voltage regulation, diode ripple, and also starter cranking RPM (patent pending).
