Overview

Among the more noticeable enhancements found in the Smart Tray SE are its new sights and sounds. Cool blue LEDs, located beneath each cell, indicate the discharge status of each cell/battery pack. Accompanying the LEDs is a buzzer that will emit a short tone to indicate when the individual cell is discharged, and a long tone to indicate when the entire pack is discharged.
In addition to our standard mode, weve added an optional Hold Discharge Voltage Mode. In essence, whatever discharge voltage is selected, the Smart Tray SE will constantly monitor and hold each cell at the selected voltage. The Maximum Cut-Off Threshold has also been increased in the Smart Tray SE. In both the standard and the new Hold Discharge Voltage Mode, users can now choose from 0.0V to1.2V in 0.1 volt increments.
At the core of the Smart Tray SE is Novaks exclusive Individual Cell Monitoring Circuitry (ICM). This sophisticated circuitry is microprocessor-controlled, which enables the Smart Tray SE to provide the highest degree of care and accuracy for all Ni-MH and Ni-Cd cells. The ICM Circuitry accurately discharges and monitors each individual cells voltage, and has an LED at each cell that indicates its discharge status. A user-programmable cut-off voltage is constantly displayed on a large easy-to-read 2-digit LED. Once the cut-off voltage of the individual cell is reached, the Smart Tray SE automatically stops discharging that cell (indicated by its LED going out), and subsequently eliminates the need to monitor the pack. When all the LEDs are out, the pack is discharged and equalized.

With each cell receiving individual care and attention, users can set it and forget it without worrying about damaging the batteries left in the discharge tray too long. A large heat sink provides ample cooling for discharge components, while a Lexan cover protects the electronics.

On the Box:

User-Adjustable Cut-Off Voltage: Large, easy-to read 2-digit display Adjustable in 0.1 volt increments

Individual Cell Monitoring Circuitry: Each cell discharged with its own load circuit; Indivual status LEDs for each cell; Each cell circuit shuts off when done; Can't leave batteries in tray too long

Precision Cut-Off Accuracy: Externally powered discharge circuitry; Battery pack does not drive electronics

Discharge rate is adjustable from 0.1-0.9 per cell (plus a dead short mode that discharges below 0.1 per cell--accessible through special start-up procedure)

Purple anodized aluminum extrusion forms the bottom and back of Smart Tray SE's case for safe and reliable cooling--so you always get accurate discharges, and a Lexan faceplate protects the Smart Tray SE's electronics.

In addition to all of the features found in the original Smart Tray (#4500), the Smart Tray Special Edition (#4510) includes the following enhancements and unique features without an increase in list price.

* New buzzer to indicate when cell/pack discharge is complete
* New BLUE LEDs to indicate discharge status
* New Hold Discharge Voltage Mode
* New Cut-Off Voltage (in both modes), adjustable from 0.0-1.2V/cell in 0.1V increments.

With each cell receiving individual care and attention, users can set it and forget it without worrying about damaging the batteries left in the discharge tray too long. A large heat sink provides ample cooling for discharge components, while a Lexan cover protects the electronics.
