The Avtron Model LPH400 Load Bank is a portable,
self-contained unit that simulates electrical loads.

The Avtron LPH400 Load Bank is ideal for routine load testing of standby diesel generating sys­tems or for factory production line testing of (UPS) Uninterruptible Power Supplies, turbines,
or engine generator sets. This model provides resistive loading up to 400 KW at either 240/480
or 480 Volts AC in a convenient and easy-to-use package.

This load bank features horizontal air discharge to provide a low profile design for easy entry
into areas such as parking garages. This unit is simple to set up and operate by a single techni­cian, saving valuable time in the field. An optional control power transformer is also available
for sites where 120 VAC power is not readily available.

The LPH400 Load Bank features the standard in Digital Metering which includes the Avtron
Advanced Digital Monitoring System (ADMS™). The ADMS meter provides faceplate digital
display of Volts, Amps, Frequency, and KW. The Communicator EXT™ Data Logging Software
allows Real Time Data Acquisition and trending of all meter parameters from your Laptop PC
or PDA. An Infrared/USB interface cable is included for “Plug and Play” convenience.

This unit incorporates state-of-the-art design features, including a heavy gauge aluminized
steel enclosure, continuously supported resistor elements on stainless steel rods, and an
industrial blower.

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

Construction

A rugged aluminized steel enclosure with
screened inlet and exhaust openings. Two
fixed and two lockable swivel casters provide
mobility. Lifting eyes, forklift channels, and
tie-down hooks are standard.

Control Power

The LPH400 Load Bank requires control
power of 120 VAC, single phase, 60 Hz
(control transformer optional).

Cooling

The resistive elements are air cooled by an
integrally mounted 3 phase blower (250 KW
or 400 KW unit) or a single phase blower rated
120 VAC (200 KW unit). No additional cooling
period is required when load is removed.

Controls

The operator control panel includes a MAS­TER LOAD ON-OFF switch, load step ON-OFF
industrial toggle switches, BLOWER ON-OFF
push buttons with a BLOWER FAILURE light,
and BLOWER and LOAD VOLTAGE selector
switches (dual voltage units only).

Digital Metering

Avtron Advanced Digital Monitoring System
(ADMS™) is provided for display of Volts,
Amps, Frequency, and KW. ADMS™ also
includes Communicator EXT™ Data Logging
Software.

Safety Circuits

The LPH400 Load Bank features branch
circuit fusing on all load steps. Wrong volt­age protection, motor overload protection,
overtemperature protection, and cooling
air loss protection are also provided.

Load Capacity Ratings: (3 phase, 60 Hz)

Available Load Step Resolution: 5 or 50 KW

Rated KW 240/480 VAC 480 VAC

NOTE Designs for international 50/60 Hz voltages or custom

DC designs are also available. Consult factory.
