Section 1: General Precautions
and Information

Safety Notice

Use of Equipment

The Cadex C5100 Battery Tester is designed with adequate
safeguards to protect users from shock and other hazards when
used as specified within this document. However, if the
equipment is used in a manner not specified by this
documentation, the protection provided by this equipment may
be impaired. Please read this document and equipment labeling
before using the equipment.

• Read, understand and follow all instructions in this user
guide before using the Cadex C5100 Battery Tester unit.

• Refer to the battery manufacturer MSDS (Material Safety
Data Sheet) for specific handling and safety information.

• Always inspect a battery for physical damage before
testing the battery.

• Install the equipment near a socket-outlet where it is easily
accessible.

Cadex C5100 Battery Tester User Guide

Modification of Equipment

CE, FCC, CSA, UL, and other approvals apply only to the Cadex
C5100 Battery Tester in the factory-authorized configuration.
Changes or modification to the equipment not expressly approved
by Cadex will void the approvals.

ROHS Compliance

The C5100 Battery Tester complies with the European Union’s
Directive 2002/95/EC, Restrictions of Hazardous Substances
(RoHS).

Explosion Hazard

Batteries can burst if treated improperly. Follow these
precautions at all times:

 Clean battery contacts before servicing. To clean battery

contacts, use a lint-free cotton swab dipped in 100%
isopropyl alcohol.

 Ensure the battery is making a good connection with the

adapter contacts.

 Ensure that the selected C-code is correct for the chemistry,

voltage, and rating of the battery being serviced.

 Observe battery temperature. Service batteries between

5°C (41°F) and 50°C (122° F). Stop service if battery
becomes very hot. The temperatures cited here are the
battery temperatures, not the ambient temperatures. Fast
charging outside this temperature range may damage or
reduce the life of the battery. Allow cold batteries to warm
up and hot batteries to cool before charging.

x Do not attempt to charge non-rechargeable and primary

batteries such as alkaline, carbon-zinc, or non-rechargeable
lithium batteries.

© 2013 Cadex Electronics Inc 5

x Do not short the positive and negative battery terminals

together at any time.

x Do not exceed the battery manufacturer’s recommended

charge current and voltage limits for batteries.

x Do not remove the adapter from the analyzer while the

battery is running.

Cadex C5100 Battery Tester User Guide

Charging and Discharging Lithium-ion (Li-ion)
Batteries

Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries are safe when used as directed.
Battery safety cannot be assured when a battery pack is built with
individual cells of an unknown nature with a series and parallel
connection. Not all Li-ion cells are suited for multi-cell packs.
Only cells that meet tight voltage and capacity tolerances can be
used for series and parallel connection. Mismatched packs are
subject to overcharge resulting in venting with flame and fire.
Check with the cell manufacturer to see if the cells are suitable for
multi-cell packs.

In the past, single Li-ion cells were only available to authorized
battery manufacturers. Today, imports are becoming readily
available and often fall into the hands of the inexperienced. While
most brand name cells are equipped with an internal cell
disconnect that permanently opens the current path on high
pressure, some brands do not provide this safeguard. Many
brands don’t use a separator that shuts down the battery when
high temperatures are reached. The internal safety features are
omitted for cost reasons.

Please follow the following guidelines when charging and
discharging lithium-ion cell(s) and packs. Failing to follow
these rules could result in venting with flame, explosions, fire,
and personal injury.

x Never connect cells in parallel and/or series that are not

designed for that purpose. A cell mismatch may overcharge
and vent with flames

x Never charge or discharge the battery without connecting a

working protection circuit. Each cell must be monitored
individually and the current disconnected if an anomaly
occurs.

x Never leave the battery unattended while under charge or

discharge.

 Always attach a temperature sensor when charging and

discharging the battery. The temperature sensor must
disconnect the current on excess temperature.

 Only connect cells that are matched and have identical state-of-

charge.

Shock Hazard

Cadex C5100 Battery Tester User Guide

 Pay special attention when using an unknown brand. Not all

brands contain intrinsic safety features that protect the cell
when stressed.

 During experiments, place the test battery into a well-

ventilated fireproof container.

The Cadex C5100 Battery Tester contains high-voltage circuits,
and can pose a shock hazard when the unit is opened. Do not
attempt to open the unit – there are no user-serviceable items
inside.

 To reduce the risk of electrical shock hazard, service

batteries only when they are removed and disconnected
from their end-use equipment.

 Use the tester only as specified in the documentation.

Other uses may impair the protection provided by the
unit.

 Use only a grounded AC outlet to power the tester.

Warranty & Service

Cadex Electronics Inc. warrants the Cadex C5100 Battery Tester
against defective materials and workmanship for a period of two
(2) years from the original purchase date.

Section 3: Battery Testing

Available Programs

The Boost program reactivates batteries that fall asleep due to over-discharge and brings the
battery back to life. The program charges the battery for two minutes at 100mA.

The Test program performs a battery rapid test using Cadex’s QuickSort™ 2.0 to classify the
status of the battery as Good, Low, or Poor within 30 seconds. The range is nominal 3.6V Li-ion
or Li-polymer with rated capacity values of 700-1800mAh. Batteries outside this range will not
be tested and a message No QuickSort Support appears.

The Charge program charges the battery based on the parameters in the selected C-code within
approximately 3 hours.

The Cycle program performs a charge/discharge/charge sequence on the battery based on the
parameters in the selected C-code, and displays measured capacity as a % of the C-code rated
value within approximately 7 hours.

Note: If a battery C-code that is not supported by the C5100 is selected, the unit will display one
of these messages: NiCd Not Supported, NiMH Not Supported, SLA Not Supported, 10.80V Not
Supported, or 14.40V Not Supported.

Boost Program
