Item Details

Description

Unused Simplex (USA) 1,000 kW medium-voltage resistive load bank with zero operating hours — natively configured for 60 Hz and 4160 V, matching Saudi and Gulf industrial standards for oil & gas, power generation and marine.

What sets this unit apart is its integral 1,000 kVA dry-type step-down transformer: it load-tests both medium-voltage 4160 V sources AND low-voltage 480 V sources — capability that most 1,000 kW load banks (typically 480 V only) do not have. Built by Simplex Inc., the benchmark name in load-bank manufacturing.

Forced-air cooled, with a digital power meter, hour meter and granular load-step control, housed in an outdoor weatherproof Type 3R enclosure — deploy it on a quay, at a plant or on site with no extra equipment.

Ideal for Aramco / SEC and oil & gas facilities, IPP and power-generation commissioning, shipyard sea-trials and onboard gensets, and rental fleets operating at 60 Hz. DEMIL A1 — freely exportable, no restrictions. Located in Italy; inspection welcome and worldwide shipping can be arranged, with full export and Saudi customs documentation (SABER/SASO) supported.
