Product Overview
- Rata RLC Load Bank (model R1500kW / L1150kvar / C1500kvar) is a container‑type, outdoor load bank designed to provide combined resistive, inductive and capacitive loading for three‑phase power systems. It is rated for 400 VAC, 3‑phase, 4‑wire, 50 Hz and is built with IP54 protection for outdoor service. Physical size is 4500 × 2438 × 2900 mm and weight about 16,000 kg.
Product Features
- Combined R, L and C capability (1500 kW resistive, 1150 kvar inductive, 1500 kvar capacitive).
- Dual control modes: local panel control and remote PC/console control; remote control supports load data saving and printing.
- Robust construction: containerized design with horizontal air intake and vertical air outlet via air duct; forced‑air cooling.
- Key components: Ni‑Cr finned resistors, 3‑phase inductors, tin‑plated copper busbar connections and quick connector for control power; note capacitors are supplied by the client.
- Rated control voltage: 380 VAC, 3‑phase, 4‑wire.
Product Value
- Enables accurate, repeatable load simulation for commissioning, acceptance testing and maintenance of generators, UPS systems, switchgear and other power equipment.
- Data logging and printable reports from remote control improve test traceability and documentation for quality assurance and compliance.
- Rugged outdoor capability and container protection reduce the need for additional shelters or environmental controls on site, lowering overall test setup cost and complexity.
Product Advantages
- High capacity and full R‑L‑C functionality in one unit for versatile power system testing and simulation.
- Flexible control options (local and remote) plus data save/print features for easy operation and recordkeeping.
- Durable, field‑ready design (IP54, forced‑air cooling, robust resistor/inductor materials) suited to demanding outdoor environments.
- Backed by an experienced manufacturer with export experience and an in‑house technical team focused on quality and cost control.
Application Scenarios
- Commissioning and load acceptance testing of diesel/gas generators and generator sets.
- Routine maintenance and capacity testing for UPS, switchgear, transformers and industrial power systems.
- Site acceptance tests and load‑bank testing during power plant or substation installations.
- Data center power testing, temporary load simulation during system upgrades, and field testing where a portable, outdoor‑rated RLC load source is required.
