NOTE: Before attempting to use the BITE 2/2P, be sure that you
read and understand the safety requirements and operating

Thank you for selecting an Megger product. This instrument

specifications before being shipped.
It is ready for use when set up and operated as described in
this manual.
The BITE 2 and BITE 2P are testing instruments used to
evaluate the condition of stationary battery strings. They
measure the complete electrical path of the battery:
• internal ac impedance of each cell/jar in the string
• dc terminal voltage of each cell/jar
•
interconnection resistance
These measurements, along with other maintenance data
such as ambient and pilot cell temperatures and ac ripple
currents, help determine the condition of a battery system.
The BITE 2/2P consists of a transmitter and a receiver that
enable an operator to test for sulfating plates, post-strap
corrosion, poor internal connections and poor intercell
connections.
