80 kW programmable DC load bank for DC power testing
The PDL 500-80K is a programmable DC load bank rated at 80 kW. Its higher rating compared with the 40 kW model does not imply unlimited voltage or current operation; verify the limits from this exact model's specifications.
Typical test applications
- Apply controlled load to industrial DC power supplies
- Assess battery discharge performance under an approved plan
- Monitor source behaviour at defined load points
Confirm before specifying
- Required power, source voltage and current
- Documented operating envelope for the 80 kW model
- Safe connections, cooling and test stop criteria
Engineering questions
How does it differ from PDL 500-40K?
Its rated power is 80 kW rather than 40 kW. Compare the two models' exact voltage, current and operational limits separately.
Is it suitable for battery testing?
It can be considered for suitable DC tests, provided discharge current, cut-off voltage and battery-maker requirements are verified.
What information is needed for a quotation?
Provide source voltage and current, requested load and duration, installation location and safety requirements.
