3642
3642 Enter Battery Information. Estimate capacity factor allowing for a safety margin.
3642 Capacity Factor is estimation of % of theoretical total power that is recoverable.
3642 Self drain is related to downhole temperature. For Lithium batteries it is low (assumed 1%).
3642 Enter Tool Type, Tool Current (from Sondex QC results sheet) and Tools Used in the PLT string.
Enter Tool Instructions: Consecutive Intervals in hours and Sample Rate in seconds.
Total length of program in hours: 56 Power Used: 3642 Rev 1.0 Feb 99
