BK8550

BK8550 is an 8550 series 150V / 30A, 175W programmable DC electronic load. It provides many features and capabilities typically found in performance instruments. Capable of sinking 175W in a compact benchtop 2U form factor, this series is well equipped for testing and evaluating power supplies, DC-DC converters, batteries, battery chargers, and photovoltaic arrays. Static operating modes include constant current (CC), constant voltage (CV), constant resistance (CR), and constant power (CW). Configurable list, transient, and automatic test modes offer dynamically changing load conditions for evaluating a variety of DC sources. Additionally, the dedicated battery discharge mode simplifies battery testing with configurable stop conditions. Load behaviour can be triggered internally, externally, or remotely.

• Transient mode up to 20KHz in CC mode
• Front panel remote sense terminal
• OCP, OVP, OPP, RRV and key lock function
• Thermostatically controlled fans for quiet operation
• 4.3inch LCD screen
• CR LED mode to simulate the loading behaviour of typical LEDs
• Adjustable voltage/current slew rate
• Front panel USB host port for logging measurement data
• Save/recall instrument settings to internal memory, analogue current monitoring BNC o/p
• Operating software and battery test software provided
