Product Introduction

The RM‑6 6 kW Rack‑Mount Resistive Load Bank is a compact load‑testing device purpose‑built for testing low‑power AC power‑supply equipment. It features a 6U rack‑mount form factor and supports dual‑channel single‑phase AC230 V input with a total rated power of 6 kW. By combining 0.5 kW, 1 kW and 1.5 kW load units, it achieves fine‑tuned loading in 0.5 kW increments.

The unit is equipped with four heavy‑duty DC blowers and adopts a side‑airflow design. Together with fin‑type stainless‑steel electric heating tubes, nickel‑chromium resistor cores, thermal‑protection emergency cut‑off and MCB protection, it delivers stable, flexible and safe load‑test support for generators, UPS units, power modules, inverters and other AC power‑supply devices.

Boasting compact dimensions of 483 × 480 × 267 mm, a lightweight weight of approximately 25 kg and three portable carrying handles, the RM‑6 can be conveniently installed in standard equipment racks, laboratory test benches or on‑site test stations. It is well‑suited for product R&D, factory inspection, maintenance and engineering commissioning applications.

FAQ

What type of load bank is the RM‑6?

The RM‑6 is a 6 kW rack‑mount resistive load bank, mainly used for load‑performance testing of low‑power AC power‑supply equipment. It converts electrical energy into heat via resistor elements and exhausts the heat through fans to simulate real‑world electrical loads.

What is the maximum load power of the RM‑6?

The total rated power of the RM‑6 is 6 kW. The unit has two channels, AC1 and AC2, with a maximum load power of 3 kW per channel, adding up to 6 kW for both channels.

What are the input voltage and frequency of the RM‑6?

The rated test voltage is dual‑channel single‑phase AC230 V with a rated frequency of 50 Hz. Before connection, verify that the output voltage, frequency, phase conductor, neutral conductor, protective earth and power capacity of the power‑under‑test comply with the product technical specifications.

What is the minimum loading step of the RM‑6?

The minimum loading step is 0.5 kW. Each channel consists of three load segments: 0.5 kW, 1 kW and 1.5 kW, which can be combined for segmented loading via circuit breakers. It can serve as a partial‑load or auxiliary test device and shall not replace a full‑scale load system matched to the rated power of the generator‑under‑test.

What cooling method does the RM‑6 adopt?

The unit uses forced‑air cooling and is equipped with four 120 mm fans, each delivering approximately 235 CFM airflow. The fans feature a redundant‑airflow design to continuously reduce the temperature of resistor elements and internal load zones.

Why does the RM‑6 adopt a side‑airflow design?

Side‑inlet and side‑airflow design improves layout flexibility and facilitates integration with cabinets, racks or test platforms. During installation, air‑intake and exhaust paths must remain unobstructed, and adequate ventilation clearance shall be reserved according to on‑site heat‑dissipation conditions.

How does the unit prevent overheating?

Overheat protection is realized by forced‑air cooling and thermal‑protection emergency cut‑off. Fans continuously cool the load area. When temperature reaches the protection threshold, the thermal‑protection device cuts off the load circuit. The actual trip temperature and reset mode shall be subject to the final electrical documentation and factory settings.

Can the RM‑6 be installed in a standard cabinet?

Designed as a 6U Rack‑Mount unit, it is intended for integration with standard cabinets, racks or test benches. Prior to physical installation, confirm the cabinet's usable internal height, depth, load‑bearing capacity, mounting method, air‑inlet / exhaust clearance and cable bending radius.

What connectors and cables are supplied with the unit?

The unit is fitted with two IEC 60320 C20 connectors, supplied together with two pieces of 3‑meter‑long 3‑core C19‑to‑C20 cables with conductor size 3 × 2.5 mm². Before hard‑wiring, verify plug‑socket model, current rating, cable cross‑section and protective‑earth connection.

What basic safety requirements apply when operating the RM‑6?

Before operation, confirm correct power‑supply voltage, frequency, phase connections and protective‑earthing; inspect integrity of cables and connectors; ensure fan intake and exhaust zones are unobstructed. Do not touch high‑temperature components or block ventilation openings during operation. In case of abnormal temperature rise, strange odors, fan failure, protection tripping or electrical anomalies, stop loading immediately and perform inspection in accordance with on‑site safety procedures.
