41S Series

Low Power DC Load Benchtop, up to 700kW

The 41S Series DC loads offer high power and current at an affordable price point. 41S Series models are available in power levels of 250W, 350W or 700W. Available input voltage ranges are 0~80Vdc or 0~500Vdc. All models offer a wide V-I constant power load profile allowing for high voltage and low current as well as low voltage and high current applications using the same DC load. The compact form factor of these DC Loads makes them convenient for bench use.
