Detailed Description
GeneratorJoe Avtron Portable Load Banks Portable Load Banks for Testing Generators, UPS and Battery Systems. Load Banks Direct has assembled a team of load bank industry experts (with over 100 years of combined experience) along with the financial backing of Powerohm Resistors (America’s largest manufacturer of power resistors) to bring you the finest load bank products and support available anywhere.
We now offer a complete line of standard and custom load banks including freestanding (outdoor stationary) load banks, portable load banks (with caster wheels), radiator mounted load banks or mobile load banks (trailer mounted or containerized).
All our load banks are 100% Made in the USA, complete with user-friendly controls and many improvements over load banks typically found in the industry today.
Each LBD load bank is constructed of heavy gauge galvanized steel with polyester powder coat paint to achieve a durable, long-lasting finish. Portability and ease of positioning are provided with moving handles and heavy-duty casters. Tie-down provisions allow for secure transportation to and from job sites.
The resistive load sections feature LBD’s PowerDyne™ wound load elements, fully supported across their entire length within the air stream on stainless steel support rods with high-temperature ceramic insulators.
Load stability is optimized by maintaining conservative resistor designs.
The load bank control panel is mounted in a NEMA-12 control enclosure which is suitable for remote mounting and comes standard with each load bank assembly.
Safety Features
Each load bank also includes many important safety features such as fused load steps, blower air-fail switch, exhaust over-temperature switch, blower motor overload protection and appropriate warning and caution signage located on the load bank access panels. Our freestanding load banks are designed for outdoor, stationary installation and feature fork-lift channels in the
base for easy installation and lifting.Power Connections - Quick Connects
Portable load banks are equipped with a set of fully-rated, industry exclusive Cam-Lok power connectors which are color coded.
These load banks have screened cold-air intake and screened/louvered hot-air exhaust for superior all-weather protection and for personnel safety. All exterior fasteners are stainless steel for long life.
Each load bank features a high performance blower system, optimally designed for maximum cooling.
Our portable load banks include heavy duty caster wheels and are designed for temporary indoor operation or rental service.
Our standard portable load banks include power capacities ranging from 100 kilowatts to 700 kilowatts with standard load step resolution of 10 kW.
These load banks are typically used for high power load testing of emergency power systems including generators, uninterruptible power supplies, turbines, battery systems and regenerative power absorption of large motors and other load applications. Our standard freestanding load banks include power capacities ranging from 50 kilowatts to 2500 kilowatts with standard load step resolution of 25 kW.Optional 5 kW resolution is available for applications requiring ultra-precision load adjustment. These load banks are suitable for use on all common 50 and 60 hertz power systems up to 600 volts. Custom ratings, DC Load Banks or medium-voltage designs are also available – please contact us at GeneratorJoe at (707) 542-2224 or write sales@generatorjoe.net.

Control Power
A detachable line cord is provided to deliver the convenient 120 Volt AC, 1-phase, 60 Hertz power necessary for control circuit operation. When 120 VAC control power is not readily available, units can be provided with a control power transformer.
Digital Power MeterCooling System Integrally mounted blower motors with high-performance, direct-driven fan blades deliver the required airflow volume (CFM) for cooling resistor load elements Blower motors operate at 120 VAC, 1-phase, 60 Hertz – line cord provided. Motor circuit is short-circuit protected by current-limiting fuses and thermally protected by overload relays Dual Voltage units feature an operator Blower Voltage Selector switch.
A fully equipped, 3-phase Digital Power Metering System that measures a standard range of 16 load parameters. Includes RS485 (Modbus protocol) for remote reading - compatible with PC, PLC, and data loggers.Operator Protection
The LP100 comes equipped with an Emergency-Stop push button allowing the operator to take the unit off-line should a critical hard-stop condition occur. Branch circuit fuse protection provides short-circuit fault protection of all load steps eliminating the potential for catastrophic failure. Blower On, Motor Overload, Air-Flow Failure, and Over-temperature circuits disable all load steps during a fault condition with operator visual indicators, while a Wrong Voltage Applied protection circuit prevents the application of 480 VAC with the Load Voltage Selector switch in the 240 VAC position. The Load Dump circuit provides the operator visual indication if all load steps have been removed.Operator Controls
