If you are splitting the strap,
keep in mind the multiplier you
specified. When the CT is
connected, the receiver displays
a measurement of the system
ripple current.
3.
Position the clamp-on end of the CT around a convenient
intertier or intercell connection on the battery so that the
current you are going to measure will be within the loop
created by the
current source leads
from the
transmitter
and the battery string.
NOTE:
Loads, parallel strings, and charging equipment can
create parallel paths for the measurement current. Therefore,
place the standard 2 in. CT at a location that verifies the source
measurement current for the cells under test. Do not place the CT
around the current source lead. This may not represent the
current flowing through the battery string.
4.
Pull the
receiver
trigger
to advance the receiver and store
the ripple-current reading.
5.
Next, the receiver screen prompts you to begin connecting
the
BITE 2/2P transmitter
to the battery.
