Simplex SWIFT-E ULTRA Load Bank
The Simplex SWIFT-E ULTRA Portable Resistive Load Bank is engineered for seamless testing and maintenance of small generators and AC power sources. This fully self-contained, lightweight, and hand-transportable unit is an industry favorite for its ease of use and robust design. Complete test instrumentation and connection cables are included for immediate deployment.
Key Features:
- Load Capacity: Up to 20kW at 120 & 240 VAC, 1-Phase, 60Hz.
- Load Step Resolution: 250W.
- 50Hz Load Capacity: Capable of testing at 50Hz for 115V & 230V with approximately 92% of the rated capacity.
- Controls: Includes a master load switch, load step toggle switches, and a fan/control power toggle switch for simplified operation.
- Instrumentation: Features a Digital Power Meter that displays Voltage, Amps, KW, Frequency, and Power Factor with precision:
- AC Voltage: +/- 1/2%, plus 1 digit
- AC Amperes: +/- 1/2%, plus 1 digit
- Frequency: +/- 1/2%, plus 1 digit
- KW: +/- 1%, plus 2 digits
- Power Factor: +/- 2%, plus 2 digits
- Control/Cooling Power: Internal from the power source being tested.
- Cooling System: Equipped with onboard cooling fans that provide approximately 500 CFM cooling.
- Load Elements: Features sealed, tubular-type elements comprised of nichrome resistance wire enclosed within an incolloy sheath, ensuring a rustproof, vibration, and shock-proof design.
- Protection Mechanisms:
- Load Element Circuit Protection via a main circuit breaker with overload/short circuit trips.
- Overtemperature Protection system that activates an alarm and trips the main contactor in case of overheating.
- Overvoltage Protection sensor that safeguards against misconnection (e.g., 240V to 120V), triggering an alarm and tripping the main contactor.
- Load Connections: Includes a 10ft cable set with ring lug terminations for easy connection.
- Enclosure: Constructed from NEMA 1 aluminum with a powder-coated nickel-metallic finish, featuring rubber feet, combination carry handles, and cable wrap for added convenience.
