Product Overview
1) Product overview
Product Features
- Rata’s resistive load bank testing solution is a high-capacity, containerized resistive load bank designed for full-scale generator and power-system testing.
Product Value
- Main model example: 2680 kW at 440 VAC (or 2000 kW at 380 VAC), 3-phase 4-wire configuration, IP54-rated enclosure, built for outdoor/field use with water- and snow-proof air ducting.
Product Advantages
- Physicals: 4500 × 2530 × 2600 mm, ~7,500 kg, lift lugs for movement and customized enclosure color options.
Application Scenarios
2) Product features
- Multi-step modular loading: specific steps include 10kW, 20kW, 30kW, 40kW, multiple 100kW and 500kW stages to reach full capacity.
- Control & monitoring: local panel and remote PC control, generator test interfaces, PLC compatibility, RJ45 networking, data curve/chart/table display, and data save/print capability.
- Cooling & acoustics: forced air cooling with horizontal intake / vertical outlet, axial fans, noise < 80 dB at 3 m.
- Robust construction: 8020 Ni-Cr alloy finned resistors, tin-plated copper bus bars, IP54 container, protective steel mesh and covers for intakes.
- Safety protections: short circuit, overcurrent, overtemperature, low-air-volume, fan-fault, emergency stop, access control, and smoke alarm.
3) Product value
- Reliable, repeatable, full-load simulation for commissioning, acceptance, maintenance and performance verification of generators and power systems.
- Extends equipment life and reduces risk by enabling controlled, instrumented load application and comprehensive protection features.
- Improves testing efficiency and record-keeping through remote control, data logging and print/export functions.
- Field-hardy design (IP54, weatherproof ducts, rugged enclosure) reduces logistics and installation complexity for outdoor and industrial sites.
4) Product advantages
- Very high capacity in a single containerized unit (up to 2680 kW at 440 VAC), suitable for large gensets and paralleled systems.
- Flexible, precise load stepping and comprehensive control options (local/remote, PLC, PC) for automated or manual test programs.
- Durable heating elements (Ni-Cr finned resistors) and thorough protective systems for safe operation under heavy duty.
- Transportable, weather-resistant package with anti-foreign-object intake design and lift lugs for easier deployment.
- Manufacturer support and quality control practices (packing for shipment, factory visits, one-stop services from Deyang Rata Technology Co., LTD).
5) Application scenarios
- Generator commissioning, performance verification and routine maintenance (power plants, rental gensets).
- Load bank testing for data centers, UPS systems, and critical infrastructure to validate backup power capacity.
- Industrial facilities, manufacturing plants, and petrochemical sites needing on-site load simulation and acceptance testing.
- Shipyards, military and offshore platform power-system testing where rugged, weatherproof equipment is required.
- Factory acceptance testing (FAT), research labs, and training facilities that require repeatable, instrumented resistive loading.
