Wärtsilä JOVYLOAD PULSE

PRODUCT LE AFLET

We define pulse loads as loads, which can be activated and deactivated in a short time. For
such applications standard switches like contactors and relays are unsuitable. The micropro-
cessor-controlled load resistors of the Wärtsilä JOVYLOAD PULSE series are equipped with
modern IGBT transistors and by means of their innovative technology they are suitable for
pulse loads of any kind. They can be perfectly integrated and connected to existing compu-
ter systems.

INTELLIGENT ELECTRONIC
Systems of the Wärtsilä JOVYLOAD PULSE series are
equipped with intelligent electronics enabling quick and
low-loss implementation of load changes. By opening
or closing of the MOSFET power semiconductor via an
interface the load of the test unit is raised or lowered by a
fixed amount. A MOSFET power semiconductor switches
almost without loss and is therefore able to execute many
switching operations in a short time. Standard circuit
breakers can do this only in a limited way. The Wärtsilä
JOVYLOAD PULSE series - has been designed for DC
loads. Optionally these series can be fitted with a rectifier,
thus also AC loads can be connected. Further customised
adjustments for different applications are of course pos-
sible.
The loads in the Wärtsilä JOVYLOAD PULSE are imple-
mented via robust steel-grid resistors of the types HWS
and SPR as well as with resistor modules of the type
series MPR. All applied resistor elements are durable and
capable of withstanding extreme loads. They are ma-
nufactured of stainless steel sheets in special alloy. The
grids of the HWS series have a load bearing capacity of
up to 500 W per grid. We produce 45 different resistor
elements for this type. With parallel and serial connection
almost all conceivable resistance values can be obtained.
For the SPR series the resistor elements are optimised for
a respective application and are therefore manufactured
to order in different material strength. Our resistor modu-
les of the MPR series are always applied in the event high
loads need to be converted into compact form. We achie-
ve the meander shape by welding die-cut resistor ribbons.
By default the load banks of Wärtsilä JOVYLOAD PULSE
are integrated in a solid steel sheet housing (600 x 2200 x
810 mm). The electronics are integrated in two additional
steel housings. Per 60 kW load increments an additional
cabinet is necessary.
