What frequency is suggested for performing a BIT?

The recommended frequency for performing a Built-In Test (BIT) is every 90 days. This regular interval is crucial for maintaining the integrity and safety of chassis components. Conducting BITs every 90 days allows for timely identification of any potential defects or performance issues before they escalate into more significant problems. Regular testing ensures that the chassis remains compliant with regulatory standards and helps uphold operational efficiency.

It is also important to note that performing BITs too infrequently, such as every 6 months, once a year, or every two years, may lead to neglect of minor issues that could develop into major safety concerns. The 90-day frequency strikes an optimal balance, ensuring that the chassis undergoes routine checks while not being overly burdensome, allowing for any necessary maintenance or repairs to be addressed promptly.
