Load Simulator

Application Description

The load system is intended for testing satellite power supply systems; due to the integration with a solar array simulator and a battery simulator, it can perform validation and commissioning of satellite power supplies. The system is equipped with regenerative electronic loads and customer-specific high-power switching matrices for routing the DUT channels to the relevant loads. The individual voltages and currents for each channel can be read back via a Keysight Technologies switch mainframe.

The system is equipped with high electrical power; its loads are capable of feeding the energy back into the power grid.

The system is controlled and programmed via Ethernet. It comprises interlinked safety circuits in order to ensure operator protection.
