It fits the SET030R, SET130R, SET230RM, SET2100, and six additional models that share the BDC35 form factor. Capacity is rated at 16.2Wh — same as the original specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSET030R \/ SET130R platform compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    These models share the same BDC35 battery bay, 6V supply rail, and connector pinout. The instrument's power management reads cell voltage directly — no proprietary BMS handshake is required for authentication, so the pack initialises without error codes on all listed models.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this pack through full charge and discharge on the SET030R platform. The BMS held stable through motor-drive sequences during angle measurement and EDM ranging pulses. No mid-cycle cutoffs were recorded across repeated test sessions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePost-install calibration cycle:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After fitting this battery, run a full instrument calibration through the SET030R's menu before field deployment. The instrument maps battery state during that sequence, and skipping it causes premature low-battery warnings during your first measurement session — even when the pack is fully charged.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBMS lockout after a Sokkia total station sat unused in its carry case for months\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eNi-MH cells self-discharge at roughly 1–3% per day at room temperature. After several months in storage, a pack can drop below the BMS recovery threshold — typically around 4.5V for a 6V Ni-MH pack — and the instrument will not power on or accept a charge signal. The fix is to apply a slow trickle charge at a low current rate (around 100mA) for 2–4 hours using a compatible external charger such as the CDC68 or CDC39. Once the pack recovers above 5V, normal charging resumes and the instrument will recognise the battery again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eVoltage dropout causing angle readings to reset mid-session\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eDuring sustained EDM ranging or repeated motorised axis drives, the SET030R draws peak current that can cause a weakened or partially discharged Ni-MH pack to sag below the instrument's minimum operating voltage. When this happens, the processor resets mid-measurement and the display returns to the startup screen — losing any unsaved angle or distance data. This is not a firmware fault. Check the cell voltage under load with a multimeter; a healthy 6V Ni-MH pack should hold above 5.4V during drive sequences. If voltage sags below that threshold under load, the pack needs replacement rather than further charging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43360713474138,"sku":"BWCS-SDC130SL-1","price":81.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43360713506906,"sku":"BWCS-SDC130SL-2","price":95.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43360713539674,"sku":"BWCS-SDC130SL-3","price":106.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-SDC130SL-1.webp?v=1778616209","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/sokkia-set030r-replacement-battery-6v-2700mah-ni-mh","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
