Resistive load bank ULB-R250

testfor generatorsUPS

The Model ULB-R250 is a state-of-the-art, medium capacity resistive load bank system intended for testing and routine maintenance of stand-by generators, UPS, or other AC power sources. Designed for outdoor installation, the load bank features vertical hot-air discharge to keep the installation footprint to a minimum. The load bank is digitally controlled via an on-board PLC with color touchscreen display and includes standard digital monitoring with test data capture to a USB drive. This load bank is a smaller version of our popular 1000 KW model and is available in 50, 100, 150, 200 and 250 KW sizes. The ULB-R250 is compatible with other ULB outdoor load banks and two or more load banks can be used in daisy-chain mode with a common digital controller when higher capacity testing is required. The load bank enclosure is rated NEMA-3R and is suitable for permanent outdoor installation. The cabinet is constructed of heavy gauge steel with a durable polyester powder coat finish. The cabinet has hinged access doors with lockable latches. Cooling air is drawn in from the screened intake sides and the hot air exhaust is directed vertically upward through a stainless steel screen on top. Forklift channels are included in the base for easy positioning and placement. The load bank incoming power connections are made inside the main cabinet directly to copper bus bars. The load bank control power is provided from a standard internal control power transformer which derives power from the input load bus voltage. This eliminates the need to run a separate 120 VAC utility feed to the load bank which can save significant time and cost.
