Argus Battery Monitoring Technologies
Argus' smart battery performance instruments are powered by two core patented technologies.
CrankCheck
CrankCheck™ measures the electrical effort the battery actually exerts to start the engine. This technique is ideal for monitoring starting batteries because it is a direct measurement of the battery while it is doing it assigned job. The BB-SBM series uses CrankCheck to track cranking health decay over time and sounds and alarm before the battery fails.
The microprocessor in the BB-SBM series combines CrankCheck results, battery voltage information, and temperature to deliver the most advanced battery monitor for automotive starting battery applications.
Large Pulse Resistance (LPR™)
LPR technology is the core technology powering the BB-DCM series of capacity and lifecycle meters for deep cycle batteries. LPR measures battery internal resistance which is effectively a measurement of the battery's ability to deliver electrical power. What makes LPR unique is that it precisely measures battery internal resistance while a battery is being used.
A powerful microprocessor in the BB-DCM series carefully tracks internal resistance as the battery is charged and discharged - and measures capacity decay over time providing the only real time state-of-charge and state-of-health meters available.
