SAFE OPERATING AREA & SPECIFICATIONS
The RBL 488 Dynaload Series features 400, 800, 2000 and 4000 watt models with wide range IEEE 488 computer programming. Individual models are designed for low voltage high current application up to 1000 amperes at fractions of a volt whereas other models are designed for midrange applications and high voltage applications up to 1000 volts. Equivalent RBL Dynaloads are available with RS 232 and Analog programming for laboratory as well as production applications. All models include easy to apply master slave parallel capabilities and all higher power models incorporate variable speed forced air cooling to assure a quiet environment.
