Load Banks are devices designed to provide electrical loads for testing power sources such as generators and Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS). Load banks are also used to reduce "wet stacking" problems in diesel engines of backup generating systems.

Most Avtron resistive load banks feature Helidyne (TM) resistive elements. These Avtron designed and manufactured elements are made of a corrosion resistant chromium alloy and are fully supported across their entire length on stainless steel support rods with segmented ceramic insulators. Elements are carefully selected to operate at low temperatures to provide extended, reliable performance, eliminating the need for a "cool down" period after load bank operation.

	K675A The Model K675A Load Bank is designed for permanent outdoor installation when 200 KW to 500 KW of load is required. The K675A series is designed and built to incorporate the latest state-of-the-art load bank features. It is ideal for high power resistive loading of AC generating systems. Designed for outdoor installation, the load bank utilizes a fixed louver on the exhaust opening to protect the motor and resistive elements from the weather. Read More
	K875A The Avtron Model K875A load bank can be utilized independently or as a modular building block for larger systems to meet a variety of power testing requirements. It is ideal for high power resistive loading of AC generating systems. The load bank features vertical air discharge for installation in areas where space is at a premium such as the rooftops of high-rise buildings. Weatherproof exhaust hoods provide maximum protection to the resistor cases and blower assemblies. Read More
	SPIRIT The Avtron Spirit Load Bank (LSH) is designed for permanent outdoor installation when 50 to 150 KW loading is required. Designed for outdoor installation on a concrete pad, the load bank utilizes a fixed louver on the exhaust opening to protect the blower motor and resistive elements from weather. A remote control panel is provided for load bank operation and includes the necessary controls and status indicators. Read More
	MILLENIUM The Avtron Millennium Load Bank is a portable, self-contained unit that simulates electrical loads. This model provides resistive loading up to 400 KW at either 240/480, 480 or 600 Volts AC in a convenient, and easy-to-use package. Read More
	PATRIOT The Avtron Patriot Load Bank is a portable, self-contained unit that simulates electrical loads. This model provides resistive loading up to 700 KW at either 240/480 or 600 Volts AC in a convenient, and easy-to-use package. Read More
	LIBERTY The Avtron Liberty Load Bank (LPH series) is available in 55 KW at 300/600 VAC, 3-phase, 60 Hz, 25 KW at 120/240 VAC, 1-phase, 60 Hz, and 75 KW at 240 VAC, 1-phase, 60 Hz. At only 69 pounds, it is light enough to be easily moved and transported by one technician, and rugged enough to stand up to years of reliable service. Read More
	FREEDOM The Avtron Freedom Load Bank (LPH series) is rated 100 KW at 600 VAC, 3-Phase, 60 Hz and 93.75 KW at 300 VAC, 3-Phase, 60 Hz. Designed for continuous operation, this Avtron Load Bank gives users the Freedom of a high-capacity load in a lightweight and ultra-compact package. Weighing only 105 pounds, this load bank is less than half the weight and size of traditional load banks of similar capacity. Read More
