Product Overview
Rata’s permanent resistive load bank (example model R5000kW) is a high-capacity, modular load testing solution built for long-term, continuous operation. It integrates dry resistance elements, comprehensive measurement and control systems, and intelligent control software to balance element usage and extend service life. Units are available in low- and medium-voltage configurations, are parallel-expandable and can be customized to customer specifications.
Product Features
- Precision control and measurement: loading accuracy ≤3%, display accuracy 0.5, sampling accuracy 0.2, minimum step 1 kW, three-phase unbalance ≤3%.
- Flexible control modes: local manual, local automatic or remote automatic control.
- Robust protections: short circuit, overcurrent, overtemperature, and fan-fault protection.
- Thermal and mechanical design: improved resistance tube design, forced-air cooling (side or top outlet), insulation class F, lifting holes and rollers for transport.
- Advanced test capabilities: steady-state, waveform and harmonic analysis, transient (surge and load-shedding) tests, continuous reliability recording, wave recording and printable reports.
Product Value
Rata load banks deliver reliable, repeatable load conditions that validate generator sets, UPS systems, switchgear and power infrastructure, reducing commissioning risk and ensuring compliance with international, ship, military and telecom standards. Intelligent balancing and durable construction lower lifecycle costs by preventing component aging and extending equipment life. Customizability and comprehensive data output improve troubleshooting, acceptance testing and regulatory documentation.
Product Advantages
- Engineering-led design with strict manufacturing control of resistance elements for durability and performance consistency.
- Scalable and customizable to meet varied power ratings, voltages and site requirements.
- Wide test coverage—from harmonic analysis to transient response—supporting thorough validation of electrical systems.
- Recognized R&D and quality pedigree: multiple patents, software copyrights and designation as a national high‑tech enterprise.
- Practical transport and installation features (lifting holes, rollers) and environmentally minded production and QC processes.
Application Scenarios
Suitable for generator and EPS acceptance testing, UPS and battery system verification, switchgear and breaker testing, power-plant commissioning, telecom and data-center resilience testing, naval and military shipboard power validation, and industrial load simulation. Any scenario requiring controlled, measurable, continuous resistive loading—on-site or in-factory—can be served, with tailored configurations to meet specific standards and environmental conditions.
