Overview

The GROADA AC230V-6.6KW-R Rack-Mounted Load Bank is engineered for accurate and reliable simulation of electrical loads in data centers, server rooms, and industrial power systems. Designed to integrate seamlessly into a standard 19-inch rack, this compact yet powerful load bank allows engineers and technicians to test, commission, and maintain critical power infrastructure with confidence.

By converting electrical energy into controlled heat via precision resistive elements, it provides a realistic representation of operational loads, ensuring that power distribution units (PDUs), uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), and other electrical systems perform reliably under real-world conditions.

Key Features

• Power Capacity: 6.6 kW at 230V AC, suitable for medium-sized server racks and industrial systems.

• Adjustable Load Steps: Load increments of 0.5 kW for precise testing of varying electrical conditions.

• Power Factor: Unity (PF=1), providing realistic resistive load simulation.

• Control Options: Local manual control and remote operation via PC software for flexible testing scenarios.

• Cooling System: High-efficiency integrated fans ensure safe dissipation of heat during continuous operation.

• Safety Protections: Equipped with over-temperature and over-current protection to safeguard both equipment and operators.

• Compact Design: 19-inch rack-mounted form factor maximizes space efficiency in server rooms and data centers.
