Key Features
- 3-Phase Resistive Design:
Built for unity power factor loading of generators, UPS systems, switchgear, and distribution equipment. - High-Temperature Resistor Elements:
NiCr alloy resistor elements are designed for stable resistance, high-temperature operation, and continuous-duty load testing. - Stainless Steel / Insulated Resistor Construction:
Resistor assemblies use stainless steel sheathing/supports with high-temperature insulation for durability in the cooling air steam. - Defined Load Step Architecture:
Discrete kW stages support repeatable test setup and controlled load transitions. - Vertical Forced-Air Cooling:
Directs heat upward and away from the test area, supporting data center floor testing and controlled - heat rejection.
- De-Rate Capability:
Supports reduced-voltage testing with kW output adjusted based on applied voltage.
