The LPL’s ultra-compact design provides test system engineers with the ultimate solution when limited space is a factor. The LPL programmable electronic load provides 600W of dissipation in a rack mounted 1U high package. With a multi-function keypad and manual encoder on the front panel, as well as full connectivity on the rear, there’s no sacrificing size for features with this high density, fully functional 1U high eLOAD.
The LPL design allows the programmable electronic load to operate at voltage levels approaching .1V. They will typically dissipate full rated current below 1% of their maximum rated voltage. For example, a 60V unit designed to dissipate 100A will allow the user to operate at .6V and dissipate the full 100A of current.
With the eLOAD line, there’s no longer a need to send your electronic load back to the factory for calibration or remove dozens of screws to reach a potentiometer. Simply follow the AMREL calibration routine from the front panel and you should be back up and running in a very short period of time (some electronic test equipment needed). This will virtually eliminate downtime and eradicate the annual cost associated with shipping your eLOAD back to the factory for calibration.
To ensure the reliability of the LPL Series, AMREL’s design includes individual FET protection. A programmable electronic load may contain many FET’s in parallel, which can create a cascading failure if one of them was to short out. AMREL’s eLOAD design isolates failures so that other components will not fail or be stressed, increasing the system’s level of protection against catastrophic failure. With individual FET protection, the MTTR is reduced and the eLOAD is quickly back to full operation.
All LPL series air-cooled loads come with both RS-232 and GPIB IEEE-488 standard. Connectors for both are provided on the rear of the unit and instructions for configuring are in the manual.
The LPL programmable electronic load is also available with an optional Ethernet and USB interface. This option is field upgradeable by the end user with minimal effort.
The LPL series provides three levels of oscillation protection and can compensate for extended wire lengths. AMREL suggests a minimal amount of cabling and other in line components that introduce inductance; however, the oscillation protection can be set to slow down the load and improve performance. This will save the electronic load from failing due to very fast spikes in voltage and current caused by inductance in the input wiring.
AMREL’s outstanding engineering team can provide customizations and modifications to any of the LPL series units. AMREL’s customizations can range from a simple modification such as a different front panel color to a completely custom electro-mechanical design. Contact the factory or your local regional salesperson for more information on customization.
