Megger’s BITE2 246002B Battery Impedance Tester assesses the condition of lead-acid and nickel cadmium cells up to 7000 Ah. The tester’s receiver stores readings in its internal memory, which, along with other data like pilot cell and ambient temperatures and AC ripple current, are used to evaluate the condition of battery systems as a whole.


The BITE2 246002B allows users to enter a baseline value off of which Pass/Warning/Fail calculations are based. Megger supplies the BITE2 with both transmitter and carrying case for the standard accessories.
