The Avtron Minuteman Load Bank is a portable, self-

contained AC resistive load bank designed for indoor use.

The Minuteman Load Bank is the new
standard in ultra-compact, portable
load banks! The load bank provides
up to 100 KW resistive load at 480
VAC or 240 VAC, 3 phase, 60 Hz. This
versatile load bank weighs only 78
lbs. [35 kg], is lightweight and ultra­compact. The load bank is also rated
for continuous operation, unlike most
competitive units.

The Minuteman Load Bank features
horizontal air discharge to provide a
low profile design. Fully-rated, quick­connect load terminals and simple
operation allow the load bank to be
set up and operated by a single tech­nician, saving valuable time in the

field. The load bank controls and cool­ing fans are powered by any standard
120 VAC, single phase wall outlet with
detachable line cord provided.

An integral control panel is provided
for load bank operation and includes
the necessary controls and status
indicators. The load bank also in­cludes the Avtron Advanced Digital
Monitoring System (ADMS)™ as a
standard feature. The ADMS meter
provides faceplate digital display of
Volts, Amps, Frequency, and KW.
Data Logging Software (included at
no additional cost) allows Real Time
Data Acquisition and trending of all
meter parameters from your Laptop

power test solutions

PC or PDA. An Infrared/USB interface
cable is included for “Plug and Play”
convenience.

Legendary Avtron quality combined
with simple operation and mainte­nance will provide years of trouble
free service.
