Did You Know?
Load banks are not inherently dangerous but there are
dangers that exist with operation of load banks. This is a
technical, industrial product and should only be set-up and
operated by trained, technical personnel who are specifically
authorized by the renter.
Be certain that all equipment is properly grounded. Carefully
check cables for wear and tear, insulation damage. Check all
CAM-lock connectors that connections are made sound and
tight including both connector mating (the connector twist-
tightens) and the cable within the connector.
Be certain that cables are phased correctly. A circuit breaker
or fuse set is required at the power source sized appropriately
for the conductor run.
Be sure to run adequate ampacity of cables. Check that
generator voltage corresponds to load bank voltage. Check
correct airflow direction and if it is necessary to reverse cooling
fan direction, allow fan to fully stop before reversing. Provide
the CFM required at an ambient not to exceed 125°F.
