The Simplex PowerStar Portable Load Bank is an ultra-compact, lightweight, versatile test instrument specially designed for manufacturers, dealers and users of small AC power systems, to 100KW nominal. It is suitable for testing engine generators, wind generators, UPS systems, ground power units, auxiliary power units, static inverters or virtually any other AC power source on the production line, in the service shop or in the field. It can be applied at all common AC voltages to 480V maximum, 50-60-400 Hertz, single or 3-phase.
The Powerstar is a digitally controlled load bank with network capability. All control is via a hand-held touchscreen controller connected to the load bank via a supplied RS-232 network cable.
