Product Overview
- Rack-mounted resistive load bank designed for data centers and computer rooms to simulate L2 equipment (conventional servers, high-density servers, routers) and to validate thermal, airflow and power-loading behavior.
- Typical rated voltage AC 220/240–250 V, 50/60 Hz. Modular rack U-sizes and power ratings are customizable to match customer requirements (examples from 3 kW up to multi‑kW assemblies with heights from 3U to 12U).
Product Features
- Precise, configurable loading: load grading and maximum power customizable, per‑step load accuracy around ±2%.
- Cooling and airflow control: forced‑air cooling (forward or rear), adjustable air volume up to 1200 m3/h, manual/automatic modes and fan 3‑minute post‑run delay.
- Robust control and connections: three input channels with independent control power input; load switching via miniature circuit breakers; control power AC 220 V/50 Hz.
- Environmental and electrical specs: operating temp −20 °C to 50 °C, humidity to 100%, altitude to 2500 m, insulation class F.
- Safety and protection: fire‑separated resistor modules, temperature alarms and automatic unloading at high temperature thresholds, overload alarm and disconnection, fan and cooling protections.
Product Value
- Enables reliable, repeatable simulation of high-density IT loads for commissioning, capacity planning and thermal/airflow optimization in next‑generation, low‑PUE data centers.
- Reduces commissioning risk, speeds testing and enables maintenance and validation without taking production equipment offline.
- Customizable design supports a wide range of data‑center layouts and testing profiles, improving operational confidence and uptime.
Product Advantages
- Factory direct from a specialist manufacturer (Deyang Rata Technology Co., Ltd.), offering customization, tight quality control and long service life.
- Compact rack format with multiple power/height options for space‑constrained environments.
- Strong safety design (fire separation, multi‑level temperature and overload protection) and high reliability components for continuous test use.
- Flexible control (manual/automatic), independent inputs and accurate load steps for fine‑grained testing scenarios.
Application Scenarios
- Data center commissioning, thermal and airflow validation, PUE reduction projects and rack/cold‑aisle capacity testing.
- UPS, generator and power distribution testing and load‑bank exercises.
- R&D, manufacturing QA and laboratory environments where repeatable, configurable electrical loading is required.
- Maintenance and failure‑mode testing of servers, routers and other L2 equipment without risking production hardware.
