AMREL Announces Addition to its ZVL eLoad Line
American Reliance, Inc. (AMREL) released what the company claims is the industry's first Zero Volt Programmable Electronic Load (ZVL) to operate down to 0V at 40Adc in a 4U half-rack bench-top unit. As the newest member of AMREL's eLoad line, this Zero Volt eLoad (ZVL) is available in 100W, 0-150Vdc and 200W, 0-150Vdc models, with additional models soon to be released. The product is designed specifically to address requirements for single cell fuel cell testing, ultra-low voltage battery testing, and 0V load applications. Modified or customized loads can be requested to meet special application requirements.
The ZVL's 0~10Vdc analog programming, external 0~10Vdc Imon (current monitor) and Vmon (voltage monitor) signals, and Remote Sensing, along with 40Adc loading @ 0Vdc, provide flexible static/dynamic fuel cell/battery testing solutions. In addition, the ZVL can be easily connected to AMREL's new FRA (Frequency Response Analyzer) to provide an effective, low cost solution to impedance measurement applications.
AMREL's feature-packed, 4U half-rack ZVL offers CV/CC/CR/CP/Pulse operating modes, 2 Full-scale ranges, standard co-resident GPIB IEEE-488.2/SCPI & RS-232 interface connectivity, and OV/UV/OC/UC/OP/UP programmable protection. Automated testing and remote programming is achieved via standard LabVIEW & LabWindow drivers. To avoid costly calibration expenses and possible downtime, the ZVL is easily calibrated in a matter of minutes through closed-case calibration.
