GOLD PLUS 6V/12V Intelligent Battery Tester
Annual Calibration
Like most test equipment, it is important for the GOLD PLUS
Intelligent Battery Tester to be calibrated to maintain accuracy.
We recommend calibration to be carried out every 12 months to
ensure general wear and tear does not impair the accuracy of the
GOLD PLUS.
As the manufacturer of the GOLD PLUS, it is critical that our battery
testers are either sent to us or an approved calibration laboratory
for annual calibration. For more information on how to get your
GOLD PLUS calibrated, please email [email protected] or
call +44(0)1744 886660. This applies to all customers within the
UK, Europe, United States and Canada.
Battery Testing Advice
1. Don’t Buy Flat Batteries
Because SLA batteries normally self discharge at 3% per month,
it is very important to decipher the date of manufacture
code stamped into the battery. This is essential for inventory
rotation and to avoid stocking old discharged batteries. If you
cannot decipher the date code, contact your supplier or battery
manufacturer. Be aware that new batteries can take up to 6
months to ship from the manufacturer to your distributor.
