Magna Power ALX1.25-500-125/UI DC Electronic Load

Overview

The ALx Series MagnaLOAD utilizes conventional linear MOSFET-based dissipative elements, allowing the series to achieve a very wide voltage-current operating range within the model's maximum power rating. Using the same heat management innovations developed for Magna-Power's high density programmable DC power supplies, the ALx Series' conservative cooling ensures long product life with continuous full power operation in environments up to 50°C ambient operating temperature. The ALx Series uses MOSFETs for power dissipation, delivering among the industry's widest full-power operating for its product class, operated in the linear region to allow full power and full control over the entire VA rating of the product.
