TOTAL LOAD TESTING SOLUTIONS
Load Banks
- Load Bank testing allows a standby power system to be tested and exercised under
load to verify its overall reliability to perform in an emergency power situation.
The load bank removes the risk to the critical facility load of total loss of power
and loss of quality of power. Critical application of power such as hospitals, health
care, computer data centers has created the need to maximize the quality and reliability
of systems.
- Load Banks allow to effectively check the efficiency of emergency sets (generators,
Uninterrupted Power Supplies) to perform in an emergency power situation. They represent
a reliable and economic way to prolong the lifetime of extremely expensive and critical
equipments.
The artificial load it provides boosts the system to an acceptable operating temperature.
To Bring a diesel engine generator set, up to an operating temperature means eliminating
excessive fuel build up or unburned fuel deposits from building up in the engine.
This is known as "wet stacking" and occurs when diesel engines are run on low or
unloaded conditions. The load bank also checks the engines ability to provide the
required horsepower over time, frequency stability and the alternator’s ability
to provide the required voltage stability.
