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

Avtron’s extensive line of Load Bank and
Industrial Resis tor Products are solid
performers used throughout the world.

The Avtron Model LCV Load Bank is used for high power
resistive/reactive testing of AC generating systems.

The Avtron LCV load bank is designed to provide high capacity resistive and reactive loading
of AC power systems such as diesel generator sets, turbines, or Uninterruptible Power Supplies
(UPS). Many specifications and local codes demand that such testing be performed at less
than unity power factor, typically 0.8 p.f. lagging. The LCV load bank is ideal for high power
resistive and reactive testing of AC generating systems in factory production lines or in the
field after installation.

The LCV load bank combines resistive load (KW) with reactive load (KVAR) to achieve a 0.8 p.f.
This combination provides a true test of the actual generator or UPS nameplate rating (KVA)
and simulates a “real-world” load.

The LCV incorporates state-of-the-art load bank design features with the highest capacity in
the industry (20' [6096] container). The resistor elements, iron-core reactors, blowers, and
controls are all manufactured from the highest quality components available.

Resistive/Reactive Load Bank - 3125 to 6250 KVA

Specications subject to change without notice.

Construction

The load bank consists of a rugged ISO style
container housing the resistive and reactive
components, blowers, associated controls,
and interconnections. The container features
air intakes on the sides of the container with
vertical exhaust through the roof.

Resistor Elements

The resistive elements are manufactured of a
corrosion resistant chromium alloy wire and
are fully supported with stainless steel rods for
long life.

Reactive Elements

The reactive elements are of non-saturating
single and 3 phase iron-core construction
impregnated with high dielectric varnish.

Control Power

120 VAC, single phase, 60 Hz provided by an
integral control transformer.

Metering

Digital metering with data logging is
provided to measure voltage, current,
frequency, KW, KVAR, and power factor.

Cooling

The resistive elements are cooled by inte­grally mounted blower motors each rated
10 HP, 460 VAC, 3 phase, 60 Hz.

Controls

The LCV load bank features both local and
remote load control. The remote hand held
controller is rugged and compact (7"x 7"x 2").
The controller is easy to operate and load
values are activated by pressing a membrane
style keypad. All resistive and reactive func­tions are displayed on a LCD display. A hard
wired E-stop push button is also provided.
The remote controller communicates with
the Load Bank PLC via 200' of control cable in
(2) 100' increments with MS style connectors.

Protection

This load bank features branch circuit fusing
on all load steps and overtemperature protec­tion. Air switches on the blowers are electri­cally interlocked to remove load if the airflow
is not sufficient to provide proper cooling.
