Technical specifications
Key machine data.
- Actual run time will vary based on load and operating conditions.
Controlled Load Testing
Apply load progressively from 0 to 300 kW to verify generator capacity under real demand.
Continuous-Duty Design
Continuous operation supports extended commissioning, proving and maintenance test routines.
Precise Load Adjustment
Seven switched steps plus rheostat control help technicians set the required test load accurately.
Efficient Forced Cooling
Built-in industrial fan blowers remove heat from the resistive elements during sustained tests.
Durable Resistive Elements
Metal-sheathed finned elements use high-grade nickel resistance wire for dependable performance.
Portable Site Setup
Optional heavy-duty casters help make the unit easier to position between test locations and generator assets.
Practical Handling
Top lifting eyes support controlled relocation while the terminal block simplifies cable termination.
Generator Protection
Routine load testing can identify issues early and help reduce wet stacking from prolonged light load.
