AC100 load bank
100kW AC 3-phase | 33kW AC 1-phase
Key features
Heavy-duty, robust load bank providing 98.75kW of load capacity, with analogue power metering.
Portability
The heavy duty castors and handle and make this unit easy to move close to the supply under test. In addition, the narrow width of 670mm makes it possible to pass the unit through door ways.
Easy to use
Easy connection to the supply under test using Powersafe connectors. The power connections are located to the side of the control panel so that operators can stand comfortably in front of the load bank.
Site ready
The rugged internal stainless steel frame provides a solid base on which to manoeuvre the unit on-site.
Meter points
Voltage and current banana plug test points provide an easy way to connect external metering eqipment of your choice.
