Electronic Constant Current DC Load Testers RBL Series Load Banks (0-600V and 0-1,000amps) GL-1000 Constant Current Electronic DC Load Tester Battery Capacity Tester (1,000 Watts) Battery Testing The SBS RBL Series Load Tester is used to test batteries by analyzing life cycle and establishing the V/I characteristics. The load is operated in the constant current mode, which freezes one of the variables when calculating the battery’s power level. Some batteries require exotic waveform testing in order to simulate real-life uses. This is accomplished by using the internal pulse generator. Many different waveforms can be created through the use of variable current levels, frequency, duty cycle, and slew rate. The load may be controlled through analog remote programming input for situations where the required waveforms are extremely complex. This input is directly proportional to the selected full-scale current of 0 to 10 volts. The constant power mode is used to test batteries designed for UPS backup systems. It simulates the changing current demand as the battery voltage decays, which are the characteristics of DC-to-DC converters and inverter input simulations. Features: �¡ Ratings from 0-600 volts, 0-1,000 Amps, up to 4,000 watts in a single unit �¡ Units available in 50V, 100V, 400V or 600V: • 800 Watt (8”W x 5.25”H x 22”D) • 2,000 Watt (19”W x 5.25”H x 22”D) • 4,000Watt (19”W x 8.75”H x 22”D) �¡ Variable speed fans minimize fan noise �¡ Master/Slave paralleling �¡ Five modes of operation: Constant Current, Constant Resistance, Constant Power, Constant Voltage, Pulse Mode �¡ Synchronized paralleling for larger systems that are controlled simultaneously �¡ Programmable under voltage �¡ Internal pulse generator with variable slew adjustable for transient testing. SBS RBL series load banks are ideal for testing large batteries, power supplies, fuel cells, and other related DC power equipment. The high-range current capability and constant power feature facilitate battery testing and analysis. The ultra-fast slew rate provides unmatched power supply transient testing capabilities. The ultra-low voltage, high current capability makes the SBS Electronic Load Tester a sound solution for any fuel cell requirement.
