INSPECTION OF BATTERIES.
3-6
a.
In preparation to determine the condition of the 1.5 volt battery connect the tester clip leads to a typical
thermocouple indicator. Rotate the RESISTANCE AND VOLTAGE FUNCTION SWITCH to the BENCH TEST, 8 OHM
position. Adjust the COARSE RHEOSTAT clockwise until the VOLTMETER pointer is approximately coincident with the
red line. The voltage across the battery terminals should read 1.30 volts or greater, using the voltmeter contained in Tool
Kit JTK-17.
b.
Determine the condition of the 45 volt battery by connecting the resistance thermometer test lead to a
representative thermometer circuit. Rotate the LEFT AND SINGLE SWITCH to a position which corresponds to the type
of thermometer circuit at hand. Rotate the RESISTANCE AND VOLTAGE FUNCTION SWITCH to the 24V position.
The voltage across the 45 volt terminals of the battery should register 40 volts or greater, using the voltmeter contained
in Tool Kit JTK-17.
