Product Details
B&K Precision 150W DC Electronic Load, Model BK8540
The BK8540 DC electronic load is a compact, economically priced instrument equally well-suited for use on bench and production floor. Although it comes in a small package, the BK8540 can reliably test a 5 volt power supply to 30 amps and do it continuously. The load can operate in CC, CV or CR mode while voltage/current or resistance/power values are measured and displayed in real time, offering the flexibility to test a variety of DC power sources. The BK8540 performance is comparable to that of most full size bench DC electronic loads, but it can do the job at lower cost and takes up less space.
Operates between 0-60 Vdc, 1 mA-30 A (150W maximum)
Easy operation
Bright, easy-to-read display
Very compact and lightweight
Two current ranges: 3 A (1 mA resolution) and 30 A (10 mA resolution)
Constant current (CC), constant resistance (CR) and constant voltage (CV) operation
Overcurrent and overvoltage protection
Short mode to simulate shorts
Save up to 400 instrument settings
