The ULB RL Series
is a state-of-the-art, high-capacity Resistive/Reactive 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. Both the resistive and reactive sections are housed in the same cabinet (in
separate sections), eliminating the need for installing completely separate resistive
and reactive load banks. 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.
Resistive/Reactive load banks are specified when 0.80 power factor testing is
required. Typical ratings are:
1500 KVA at 0.80 pf, 1200 KW RESISTIVE, 900 KVAR REACTIVE
1250 KVA at 0.80 pf, 1000 KW RESISTIVE, 750 KVAR REACTIVE
625 KVA at 0.80 pf, 500 KW RESISTIVE, 375 KVAR REACTIVE
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.
