Inductive Load Ranger R

Overview

The Simplex Inductive Load Ranger-R is a very large capacity, fully portable system. It is intended to be used with the resistive Load Ranger-R or Saturn-R for 0.8 p.f. testing. Simplex can configure operation at 480v or 600v. Rated at 2250kvar, it is typically used to test large diesel generators, turbines, paralleled generators and shipboard generators. Load control is digital giving the operator direct access to load values, block transitions, and programmable automation. The Simplex Inductive Load Ranger-R represents the ultimate technology in large generator load testing performance. They can be digitally networked to the resistive Load Rangers for single point control.

We are experts at building products that meet our customer's exact requirements. Contact Simplex if your job specifications require additional options or considerations.

Features

General

  • With a purpose-built design consisting of rugged, all-welded, monolithic steel frame, heavy gauge steel sides, guarded hinged doors, power-operated ventilation louvers, the Inductive Load Ranger R is far superior to designs which use refurbished and modified ISO shipping containers. Multi-sided access allows ready service of all components and facilitates the ultra-compact design.
  • Compact and easily transportable, the Inductive Load Ranger R is ideal for rental use. With a footprint of only 8 x 10 feet and a height of less than 8 feet, the Inductive Load Ranger R is easily transportable by drop-deck flatbed trailer. Lifting eyes and forklift channels simplify site movement.

Control System

  • The Inductive Load Ranger R utilizes digital load control for direct access of load values, block transitions, and user programmable automation. The Inductive Load Ranger R networks to the resistive Load Ranger R for single point control.
  • The Simplex Inductive Load Ranger R represents the ultimate technology in large generator load testing performance. They can be digitally networked to the resistive Load Rangers for single point control.

System Protection

  • Sensors, alarms (alarm message on operator interface terminal), lockouts as appropriate, for the following: fan failure; high exhaust temperature, each of two fans; high intake temperature, high interior temperature and over open/closed.

Power Connection

  • Bolt on bus bar and cam-lock style connectors behind hinge-up access door.

Cooling

  • Forced air, ducted blowers.

Load Elements

  • Inductive elements: Non-saturable, air-gap type, iron-core power inductors. 5% tolerance, 1% waveform distortion, 0.05 power factor, 150°C rise, 220°C insulation.

Enclosure

  • Type 3R control section; Type 3R power section. Epoxy primed, polyurethane finish coating, dark gray and transport, storage D-rings. Lifting eyes, forklift channels, hinged, lockable, access doors with flush latches.
