Plug and play modularization

Systems are designed based on modularization structure.  Modules are easily serviced, upgraded or replaced with minimal downtime. System upgrade becomes very feasible. Customers, themselves, can add more channels (within power supply limits) and change current ranges (within current limits) with minimum time and little complexity.

Proprietary heat sink and mounting technology (US Patent No. 6,304,449)

Arbin heat sink offers ~40% better heat dissipation efficiency compared to those in the market today. It is easy to install/replace, and its small size makes it lightweight and a space saver. The heat sink enables linear circuitry for high power applications. It is also the key feature that facilitates the plug and play modular structure.

Multiple current and voltage ranges

Up to three current ranges and two voltage ranges are available to increase test accuracy.

Channel paralleling to increase current output

Higher current output can be achieved by paralleling several channels together.  This capability allows a system to be used for both low and high power in a smaller structure than system without channel paralleling option.

Pulse testing technology

Arbin testing systems have the capability for advanced pulse testing regimes including GSM, CDMA and user-defined pulse testing profiles. The pulse feature can be implemented in most Arbin testing systems employing linear technology with much improved specifications and custom pulse profiles. Customers may define a pulse profile with user-friendly software.

Safety protection technology with voltage clamp

Designed first for lithium battery testing and formation systems, where over and under charge/discharge is a critical issue, Arbin continues to provide this technology, with some modifications to other testing systems as well. Voltage clamp provides group control of voltage and is regulated by testing software.

Proprietary material handling technology

From simple battery holder to advanced handling of reactant streams for fuel cell testing, Arbin provides innovative solutions to accommodate customer's testing procedures.  Standard as well as customized material handling design are available.

Software structures and features

Arbin testing software, the MITS Pro, is one of the most flexible and sophisticated testing software on the market. It is developed with an emphasis on its user-friendly interface.

The software offers users the following unique features and benefits:

	Flexible procedure control
	Virtual mapping technology
	Simulation technology
	Easy test scheduling
	Automatic charge/discharge rate setting
	Reliability and user-friendliness

Comprehensive technical support

Arbin offers free two-day training at its headquarters facility for new customer who has just purchased Arbin's system.  Phone and email support are available for free as long as the system is in operation. A support visit to customer's facility can also be arranged.
