KIKUSUI High-Capacity Regenerative Electronic Load PXZ Series

High-Capacity Regenerative Electronic Load PXZ Series

The PXZ series of highly efficient, reliable, high-capacity regenerative electronic loads has a rated power of 20 kW in 3U. In addition to the constant-current, constant-resistance, constant-voltage, and constant-power operating modes, this series has an I-V characteristic function that allows the user to set arbitrary I-V characteristics for each CC and CV operating mode. The series is also equipped with various functions, such as sequence, pre-charge, synchronous operation, pulse, sine, and VMCB functions.
 
LAN, USB, and RS232C communication functions are included as standard, allowing easy integration into various evaluation systems. The PXZ series is highly scalable, and its capacity can be increased up to 500 kW when operating in parallel (up to 25 units).
