Engineered for rack-level data center testing, commissioning, and thermal validation. Designed for installation in standard server rack environments, the series provides a controlled resistive load up to 20kW to simulate IT equipment before servers are installed or during power and cooling verification:
Each unit:
- Is built for realistic white space testing in data center environments
- Supports PDU validation and UPS testing
- Is ideal for rack circuit loading and airflow studies
- Enables HVAC performance verification
- Has static fan models that provide fixed airflow for repeatable testing
- Offers variable fan control adjustments of airflow and heat rejection
- Helps simulate expected server operating conditions for more accurate testing and commissioning results
TALON Nest Applications
- Data center commissioning and integrated systems testing
- Rack-level UPS and PDU validation
- Branch circuit and breaker load testing
- Simulated server load testing before IT equipment installation
- Hot aisle / cold aisle airflow verification
- Rack power density testing from 1–20kW
- Load balancing across rack PDUs and panel-boards
- Burn-in testing for new data halls or renovated white space
- Capacity planning for future server deployments
- Spot load testing during maintenance or troubleshooting
- Thermal sensor and monitoring system verification
- Factory acceptance testing for rack-level power systems
- Temporary IT load simulation during migration or cutover projects
Key Features
- Up to 20kW Rack-Level Loading:
Simulates IT load for rack, PDU, UPS, and branch circuit validation. - Standard Rack-Mounted Design:
Built for deployment in data center cabinets and aisle testing environments. - Static or Variable Fan Control:
Supports fixed airflow testing or adjustable airflow to better match server thermal profiles. - Adjustable Load Step Control:
Allows engineers to apply controlled heat load for staged commissioning, burn-in, and capacity testing. - Hot Aisle / Cold Aisle Validation:
Helps verify airflow paths, temperature rise, rack density, and cooling system performance. - Integrated Protection System:
Includes branch circuit protection, fan/load interlocks, airflow monitoring, over-temperature protection, over-voltage protection, E-stop, alarms, and chassis grounding.
