Product Overview
- The AC Resistive Load Bank (model R1000kW/400V/50Hz) from Rata is a pure resistive load unit rated up to 1000 kW for testing high-power generator sets and electrical systems.
- It is built in a fixed container chassis with segmented power input so total load can be combined and set from 1 kW up to 1000 kW.
- Designed for continuous operation, it uses alloy resistors with stainless steel coating for long life and stable performance.
Product Features
- Pure resistive design using 8020 Ni-Cr alloy finned resistors with low temperature drift and stainless steel coating.
- Fine resolution and flexible loading: 1 kW minimum resolution with grouped step settings for convenient adjustment across the full range.
- Control options: local manual, local automatic or remote automatic control; parallel expansion of multiple load containers for larger systems.
- Protection and reliability: short-circuit, overcurrent, high-temperature and fan-fault protections; forced air cooling (side or top outlet); insulation class F.
- Monitoring and accuracy: displays three-phase voltage, currents, frequency and power; display accuracy 0.5, sampling accuracy 0.2; loading accuracy ≤ 3% and three-phase unbalance ≤ 3%.
Product Value
- Provides accurate, repeatable, and safe loading for generator acceptance testing, commissioning, maintenance and performance verification.
- Helps validate output power, load-carrying capacity and all key electrical parameters of high-power generator sets, reducing commissioning risk.
- Scalable and flexible configuration allows precise incremental loading from 1 kW to full capacity, supporting a wide range of test scenarios.
- Rugged transport and build quality (lifting points, containerized chassis, standards compliance) make it suitable for field deployment and long-distance shipping.
Product Advantages
- High total capacity (up to 1000 kW) in a single machine with modular segmented control for precise settings.
- Durable resistor materials and stainless protection mean lower temperature drift and longer service life.
- Multiple control modes and parallel expansion enable integration into automated test systems and larger test farms.
- Comprehensive protection features and accurate measurements promote safe, reliable operation and trustworthy test data.
- Backed by Rata’s quality checks and after-sales support for dependable purchase and service.
Application Scenarios
- Factory acceptance testing and commissioning of high-power generator sets.
- Periodic maintenance and capacity testing of standby/emergency power systems in data centers, hospitals and industrial plants.
- Military, marine and telecommunications power system testing (meets relevant international/ship/military/telecom standards).
- On-site load simulation for power plants, rental load-bank services, and troubleshooting or verification of large electrical installations.
