Magna Power ALx1.25-500-125/UI+LXI DC Electronic Load

Overview

The Magna Power ALx Series DC electronic load uses linear MOSFET-based dissipative elements to achieve a wide voltage-current operating range within the model's maximum power rating. The ALx series supports continuous full power operation in environments up to 50°C ambient temperature through advanced heat management innovations developed for Magna Power's programmable power supplies.

MOSFETs are specifically selected for their ability to operate in the linear region, and closed-loop control circuitry ensures stable and equal load current sharing among multiple devices. This architecture delivers among the industry's widest full-power operating range for its product class.
