Regenerative DC electronic load

29 May 2019 Power Electronics / Power Management

With the rapid development of power batteries for electric vehicles (EV), energy storage systems and other industries, the demand for high-power DC electronic loads ranging from 30 kW to 500 kW has greatly increased. ITECH launched the new IT8000 series to meet such requirements.

The IT8000 increases power density over the IT8300 model, with its smaller size and voltage up to 2250 V, fully meeting the ultra-high voltage requirements of specialised fields, and has full anti-islanding protection. Moreover, energy recovery efficiency is up to 95%.

The device can simulate various e-load characteristics and return the consumed energy back to the grid cleanly, saving costs related to energy consumption and cooling, while being eco-friendly. With its modular design, it can provide up to 18 kW in a 3U space – expandable up to 1152 kW by master-slave paralleling and active current sharing.
