LD Series Radiator Duct Mounted Load Banks 50 kW - 1000 kW
Load Banks Direct, LLC is a leading manufacturer of high-capacity Load Banks. The LD Series of Radiator Duct Mounted Load Banks offers simple, easy to mount, economical solution for providing diesel generators with a supplemental load to minimize the effects of wet-stacking during operation under lightly loaded conditions. �LBD is setting the standard with intelligent operator controls, safety indication layouts, and adjustable load step resolution. �The LD Series of duct mounted load banks provides a cost-effective solution for regularly scheduled maintenance testing of mission-critical standby emergency power generators.�� �
- Cost-effective solution for routine generator testing
- Reduce engine wet-stacking | Improve engine emissions
- Branch circuit fusing virtually eliminates catastrophic failure
- Intelligent Safety Circuits, Indicators, and Operator Controls
Construction �| �Built to Last
LD Series of Duct mounted load banks are constructed of formed galvanized steel in an open-frame for direct mounting/coupling to the engine cooling system. �The open frame houses the resistor load elements and contains an integral side-enclosure for customer load connections, load step contactors, controls, and fusing. �The rigid enclosure provides an open-air cross-sectional opening of the load resistors designed to match the opening of the engine radiator or exhaust air duct. �

PowerDyne� Resistors are the most rugged in the industry.�� They are fully supported across their entire length within the air stream by stainless steel support rods which are insulated with heavy-duty, high-temperature ceramic insulators. �Change in resistance is minimized by maintaining conservative resistor designs.�� �
KW Load Capacity
The LD Series of Radiator/Duct mounted load banks is available in any size range from 50 KW through 1000 KW at any available single phase and three phase Voltage (up to 600 Volts AC). �They are intended for use as a supplemental load to the generator set and are typically sized at 50% of the generator KW rating. �
Cooling
Control Power �
- Illuminated Main Power On/Off switch
- Master Load On/Off switch
- Individual Load Step Switches
- Fault condition smart indicators provide operator display and load disconnect during Overtemperature, and Load Dump
Automatic Load Dump�circuit provides user interface provisions to the generator controls, automatic transfer switch, or building management system, to disconnect and disable all load steps from a normally closed (NC) set of auxiliary contacts. �In the event of an actual power failure, all load bank load is removed from the source under test.
Remote Indication and Alarm�contact closure [form-c-type normally open and normally closed] provides user interface to your building management system for indication, detection, and alarm of �Over-Temperature�, and �Load Dump�.
