The discharge load bank
To test direct current gen sets for power, capacity and reliability
Discharge banks to check the capacity of the batteries
Direct current is highly present in specific applications and embedded systems, through batteries.
Depending on the different technologies, it is necessary to discharge them regularly to check the capacity of these batteries. There are a lot more regulations than for AC, and KVA Applications accompanies you by designing the right product for your required voltages and amperages.
A question of security
For any type of battery, especially lithium-ion, during transportation, and for safety reasons, it is important to discharge the battery (electrification-electrocution by direct contact, production of sparks, etc.)
Improved battery life
Some technologies, such as lead acid or nickel Cadmium, and even lithium, are sensitive to the effect of memory which can reduce their capacity, so the discharge bank is a relevant solution to reduce this effect and increase their lifetime, producing both economical and environmental benefits.

Testimonials
They trust us
Since more than 20 years, we use KVA Applications load banks. We are fully satisfied with such robust and reliable products
We bought a load bank that works perfectly for the test of our emergency generator.
We bought a reliable and robust bank that has never had any problems since 2011. We like the 1kW resolution as well as the easy handling.
Our KVA Applications test banks have been running 24 hours a day for 2 years. We greatly appreciate the support of KVA throughout this project.
We appreciate the modularity of the KVA banks that enables us to develop a wide range of resistive and inductive load solutions for our installations.
