Description

8514B Electronic Load, DC, Programmable, 2U, 120V / 240A / 1500W / USB, RS-232

The 8514B is the most powerful model in the 8500B series and is aimed at professional users with the highest demands. With up to 1500 W power consumption, 240 A input current and 120 V input voltage, this electronic load is ideal for industrial test systems, high-current batteries, UPSs and power supply units.

The extensive range of functions includes a precise 16-bit measurement system, dynamic test modes (list, transient, auto), a battery test mode and modern communication interfaces (USB & RS232). Thanks to the temperature-controlled fans, quiet operation is guaranteed even at maximum power.

Application areas:

  • Industrial power supply testing
  • High current battery testing
  • Electric vehicle components and charging infrastructure
  • Power density DC source validation

Product features:

  • Input voltage: 0-120 V
  • Maximum input current: 240 A
  • Maximum input power: 1500 W
  • Minimum operating voltage at full load: 2.5 V at 240 A
  • CV mode: 0.1 - 120 V, resolution: 10 mV
  • CC mode: 0 - 240 A, resolution: 10 mA
  • CR mode: 0.05 Ω - 7.5 kΩ
  • CW mode: up to 1500 W
  • Slew rate: 0.01 - 0.8 A/µs
  • Interfaces: USB, RS232
  • Form factor: 2U, weight: 20.5 kg

The 8514B outperforms all other models in the series in terms of performance and power consumption. While the 8510B, for example, manages with 600 W, the 8514B delivers a full 1500 W and is therefore ideal for energy-intensive test environments. Those testing smaller systems or high-voltage sources, on the other hand, are better advised to use the 8502B or 8500B.
