available. Consult factory.
Construction
Formed aluminized steel frame provides a rigid
enclosure to match the height and width of
the engine radiator or duct. Lifting eyes and a
radiator duct flange are included to simplify
installation. The standard K711 depth is 13"
[330.2]. For applications where the amount of
load element KW required exceeds the avail-
able 13" depth, then a “double-deep” K711A
can be used instead, with a 26" [660.4] depth.
Designed for NEMA-1 indoor installation,
the K711/K711A is also available in NEMA-
3R outdoor construction as an option. The
K711L frame can be used for special mount-
ing of 1250 KW load banks to high capacity
2000/2500 KW generator sets.
Control Power
The K711/K711A/K711L requires exter nal
control power of 120 VAC, single phase,
50/60 Hz. A control power transformer is
available as an option for sites where 120
VAC is not readily available.
Cooling
The K711/K711A/K711L does not have its
own cooling system. Instead, it relies on
cooling air from the engine driven radiator
fan or separately powered duct blowers. A
built-in thermal switch drops all load if an
overtemperature condition is detected.
Controls
The local control panel contains a POWER ON
-OFF switch, a MASTER LOAD ON-OFF switch,
and individual load step toggle switches for ap-
plication of individual load sections. A MANUAL/
AUTO switch is also provided (if the optional
automatic load step controller is included). A
remote rack-mounted control panel with wall-
mounted enclosure is available as an option.
Resistor Elements
The fully supported Avtron Helidyne™ resistive
load elements are made of corrosion resistant
chromium alloy wire and are engineered to
operate at conservative temperature ratings.
This provides more stable loading, extends re-
sistance element operating life, and eliminates
the need for a cool down period after load bank
operation.
All dimensions are in inches [millimeters].
