I need to design a battery test bench to perform capacity test for starting type lead acid batteries.
Full charged lead acid battery 12.6V and do the constant current discharge until 10.5±0.05v
According to the battery capacity discharging constant current should be able to change and these data should be able to take to computer. Timer should be included and also the voltage cutoff to stop the discharge at 10.5±0.05V. This should be automated one.
I was thinking about to do this using a switching dc load which keep the constant current through out the test when the battery voltage change. If somebody can give me a suitable switching load design to perform this it may be very helpful. Thanx
