Agilent/Keysight BT2183A

The Agilent/Keysight BT2183A is a verification fixture that interfaces with the Keysight BT2152B Self-Discharge Analyzer to enable independent validation of measurement channel integrity. The fixture routes all 32 measurement channels from the BT2152B through dual DB37 connectors to a pair of banana terminals, allowing direct verification using a digital multimeter. This approach ensures accurate and repeatable self-discharge measurements for Li-Ion cells in R&D, quality assurance, and manufacturing environments.
