Dexmet Multipath Load Banks are designed for acceptance testing equipment such as switchgears, motors or generators and for Control Load Banks to maintain the integrity of emergency power systems, for dynamic braking or grounding resistor loads. Quality Control and R&D laboratories employ Load Banks for a range of tests in industries from power generation and transportation to aerospace, naval and military applications. Emergency and standby power systems must also be operated periodically to ensure that they work. Most systems employ diesel generators, whose manufacturers and consultants recommend testing under load for proper flow of lubricating oil, sealing of gaskets and rings and circulation of coolant.
The convenient, reproducable method to control load and timing is to employ a dummy load bank. Whether fan or convection cooled, in the engine room or on the roof, flexible Dexmet designs fit requirements for a range of applications.
