Resistive load banks developed and designed specifically to meet the needs of intermediate and advanced commissioning tests in Data Centers, being widely applicable to Integrated Systems Testing (IST), Site Acceptance Test (SAT), Pre-Commissioning, Equipment-Level Commissioning, and Subsystem Testing activities, normally associated with commissioning levels 3, 4, and 5.
These equipments enable safe, controlled, and stable simulation of electrical loads, essential for system validation. Modules with power ratings of 40 and 100 kW with capacity to operate at voltages up to 480V with frequencies from 50 to 400 Hz.
Massive Data Center testing consists of the simultaneous application of a large quantity of load banks, typically ranging from dozens to more than one hundred units, strategically distributed throughout the environment to simulate the total load and thermal density specified in the design. This methodology is widely used during SAT, Pre-Commissioning, Subsystem Testing (Level 3 / Level 4), and, in many cases, as a preparatory or complementary stage to Integrated Systems Testing (IST), enabling real validation of the electrical chain to the final distribution point, including busbars, PDBs, PDUs, and rack circuits, while simultaneously subjecting cooling systems to thermal stress equivalent to full IT operation. Massive Data Center testing enables verification of phase balancing, installed capacity, behavior under continuous and transient load, as well as airflow efficiency, raised floor pressurization, hot aisle / cold aisle performance and containment, making it possible to identify design flaws, operational limitations, and hidden risks before go-live of the critical environment.
Read below some common questions related to our products. If your question remains, our specialists will be ready to assist you.
Yes, it is possible; however, step-down transformers will be required. The voltage will be reduced to 480V, allowing the test to be performed safely and accurately within the required parameters.
Yes, it is possible. However It is necessary to evaluate the specific characteristics, such as voltage, current, and the connection point—to identify the most effective equipment composition for the infrastructure in question.
Yes, this is a very common procedure. Nevertheless, it must be confirmed that the generators intended for testing are equipped to operate in parallel. If parallel operation is not possible, each generator will require a dedicated load bank for the duration of the test.
Yes, it is possible. However, several critical factors must be evaluated beforehand, including the total power to be tested, the specific installation site within the basement, and the overall duration of the test to ensure proper heat dissipation and safety.
Depending on the specific model, yes. Typically, our medium and large-capacity load banks are engineered for outdoor operation and are designed to function reliably even under rain conditions.
The duration of the test is determined by the specifications provided by the equipment or system manufacturer, or by the specific requirements outlined in the commissioning protocol.
Yes. Depending on the characteristics and requirements of the test performed, we can issue comprehensive technical reports documenting the results and observations.
