AMETEK Programmable Power RFP-L3500-375-1G00 DC Load Module

Overview

The AMETEK Programmable Power RFP series 375W DC electronic load module is designed for high-power testing and integration into modular mainframe systems. Operating at 500V and 15A with advanced digital control and safety features, individual modules can be paralleled in groups up to eight units, extending combined capabilities to nearly 4000W and 180A.

Key Features

• 375W power rating at 500V/15A with high power density in a triple-width enclosure
• Digital control loop technology ensuring precise closed-loop load regulation
• Remote Inhibit (RI) via DB-9 connector for hardware-based safety control of individual modules
• Analog programming interface allowing external analog signals to modulate the load
• Dual operation modes: Current mode (up to 30A) and Resistive mode (0–5000Ω in three ranges)
• Output Relay (1G) integrated for switching and control applications
• FET active current sink architecture providing stable, high-density operation
• Advanced thermal design with integral variable-speed fans that scale cooling to system loading
• Automatic parallel operation supporting up to eight modules in a single mainframe

Applications

• Power supply testing and validation in aerospace, defense, and industrial applications
• Battery discharge simulation and cell characterization
• DC/DC converter and isolated power module testing
• High-voltage circuit development and troubleshooting
• Automotive electrical system verification and load testing
