Battery Discharger for Power Sector – Load Bank by Statcon Energiaa

A load bank is a device which develops an electrical load, applies the load to an electrical power source and converts or dissipates the resultant power output of the source. A resistive load is used to discharge the battery for the next charging cycle. It is commonly used in commercial and industrial buildings to ensure efficient and safe functioning electrically powered machines.

The purpose of a load bank is to accurately mimic the operational or “real” load that a power source will see in actual application. However, unlike the “real” load, which is likely to be dispersed, unpredictable and random in value, a load bank provides a contained, organized and fully controllable load.

Consequently, a load bank can be further defined as a self-contained, unitized, systematic device that includes load elements with control and accessory devices required for operation.

Whereas the “real” load is served by the power source and uses the energy output of the source for some productive purpose, the load bank serves the power source, using its energy output to test, support or protect the power source.

Statcon Energiaa’s Load Bank is suitable for resistive and inductive load testing of Alternator/Generator. It is also a great asset for any repair workshop.
