Neware BTS6000 Module Tester Set up

The BTS6000 module tester operates within a voltage range of 20V to 200V and utilizes a 3-phase-5-wire connection.
Here’s a guide for BTS6000 set up, with a focus on our module testers.

Recommended computer configuration:

• CPU processor is I5 or above
• Memory capacity is greater than or equal to 8GB
• Hard disk space is not less than 1TB
• Recommended computer operating system: win7, 10, 11 (64-bit).
• If you’re setting up a new computer that requires memory partitioning, ensure the software installation disk (separate from the system disk) has at least 400GB of available space.

1. BTS6000 Safty requirement

1.1 Qualified operator

To guarantee the safety of both personnel and equipment during installation, only professional electricians and qualified personnel should handle the transportation and installation of this product.

1.2 Environmental requirement

To ensure the proper and safe operation of the equipment, please verify that your site meets the following requirements:

• The equipment must be installed on a flame-retardant surface supported by a channel-steel structure. Additionally, the ground should be level and possess sufficient load-bearing capacity to support the installed equipment.
• No direct sunlight and good ventilation.
• Temperature -10~40°C, no dramatic temperature changes.
• Relative humidity ≤ 70% RH, no water vapor condensation.
• Altitude less than 2000 meters.
• No high concentration of dust, producible gas, or corrosive gas.
• During installation, it is essential to maintain an appropriate gap between the equipment and solid objects (such as walls) to ensure adequate ventilation and safe evacuation in case of an emergency. A minimum of one person’s space (≥600mm) should be left around the equipment. Additionally, there must be sufficient clearance above the equipment for ventilation, operation, and maintenance, typically at least 500mm.

2. Power cable connection

2.1 Cable requirements

Neware will supply you with the appropriate power cables. However, if you choose to use your own cables on-site or make adjustments in the future, please adhere to the following requirements:

• The chosen cable must possess adequate current-carrying capacity. This capacity is influenced by several factors, including environmental conditions, the type of insulation material used, the installation method, the material of the wire, and its cross-sectional area.
• The wire diameter for all cables should be determined based on the maximum current of both the AC and DC sides of the equipment, ensuring that a margin is included.
• Please choose flame-retardant cables.

The cable selection calculation formula is as follows：

• Use BTS-6004n-120V100A-H as an example, the tester has 4 channels, with each independent test range of 120V100A.
• When the grid voltage is 380Vac 3-phase, the total current demand of the power line = (ChannelCount*VoltageRange*CurrentRange)/(PowerFactor*InputVoltage*1.732) = (4*120V*100A)/(0.85*380V*1.732), which is approximately equal to 86A.
• Procure the power cable accordingly.
• An appropriately rated air switch or power switch should be installed on-site to allow for independent operation of this equipment.

2.2 Cable connection

Before connecting the power cable, please ensure it is turned off to guarantee safety during the connection process. Only professional electricians or qualified personnel should perform the following operations.

First, turn off the switch on the power supply. Then, connect the one-to-five power cords to the device in the following order from left to right: Phase A, Phase B, Phase C, Neutral wire (N), and Protective Earth wire (PE).

Connect the Ethernet cable directly to the computer, or use an Ethernet switch if multiple testers are involved.

3. Turn on the tester

After finishing the wiring of the device, turn on the red power switch located at the bottom rear of the unit. If the device does not start (and the screen remains blank) after switching it on, please check whether the emergency stop button on the front has been reset.
