ZXWB-02 Portable DC Ripple Tester: Technical Overview

Time:2026-01-07 Number:2

With the expanding use of lead-acid batteries across industries, performance demands have increased significantly. A critical factor affecting battery health and longevity is excessive ripple current from its DC power source. The ZXWB-02 Portable DC Source Ripple Tester is engineered to address this need by providing precise monitoring of ripple content and coefficient in DC supplies.

Primary Function
This device is dedicated to monitoring the ripple content and calculating the ripple coefficient of a DC power source. Continuous exposure to high ripple currents can cause premature battery degradation through increased internal heating and electrode stress. The ZXWB-02 enables technicians to quantify this potentially damaging parameter.

Key Features

1.High-Speed Sampling: Utilizes a next-generation sampling chip with a rate up to 1000kHz, ensuring capture of high-frequency ripple components for a complete analysis.

2.Compact & Precise: Features a small, lightweight design without compromising measurement accuracy.

3.Comprehensive Monitoring: Measures three key parameters simultaneously: DC voltage, ripple voltage (peak), and the calculated ripple coefficient.

4.Wide Voltage Range: Suitable for testing DC sources from 0V to 260V.

5.Standard Connectivity: Equipped with a USB 2.0 interface for data communication and potential PC software integration.

6.Clear Display: Uses a segment LCD for clear, direct readout of values.

Technical Specifications

1.DC Voltage Range: 0 – 260 V (Accuracy: ±1%)

2.Ripple Voltage Range: 0 – 1000 mV peak (Accuracy: ±2%)

3.Ripple Coefficient Range: 0 – 9.999%

Calculation: Ripple Coefficient (%) = (Ripple Voltage / DC Voltage) × 100%

4.Display: Segment LCD

5.Communication Interface: USB 2.0

Application Notes
The ZXWB-02 serves as a vital tool for field service and bench testing. Technicians can use it to:

1.Verify the output quality of battery chargers and rectifiers.

2.Perform preventive maintenance checks on backup power systems.

3.Diagnose potential sources of interference or performance issues in DC-powered equipment.

4.Ensure compliance with system specifications regarding allowable ripple.

Its portability and straightforward operation make it an efficient solution for assessing DC power quality, helping to prevent battery failures and ensure system reliability by identifying sources of excessive ripple current before they cause damage.
