WALT POWER delivered a 10kW outdoor resistive load bank to Australia, designed for fixed installation alongside a diesel generator. Optional wheels are available for applications requiring easier movement on site.
The load bank operates at 240V, 50Hz, single phase and uses generator control relays for load switching. Depending on the generator's control configuration, it can provide additional resistive loading during low-load operation to help reduce the risk of wet stacking.

Outdoor Installation and Generator Load Control
This 10kW resistive load bank is designed for outdoor installation where additional generator loading is required.
The load steps can be switched through the generator's control relays, subject to the configured control logic and electrical connections.
For diesel generators operating for extended periods at low load, applying an appropriate resistive load can help maintain engine operating temperature and reduce the risk of wet stacking.
When specifying a load bank for this application, we recommend checking the generator's available capacity, operating load range, control signals, and installation ventilation before selecting the load steps.
