Megger TXL865 Extended Battery Load Unit

Megger TXL865 Extended Battery Load Unit

Please note: There are two versions of the Megger TXL865 unit available, both with or without accessories. If ordered with accessories, the unit is supplied with a cable set, control cables, and a flight case, allowing for simple transport. Please select your preferred option when ordering this product.

The Megger TXL865 Multi-Battery Extra Load Unit is designed for use alongside Megger TORKEL battery discharge test systems, providing additional load capacity when higher discharge currents are required. By connecting the TXL865 directly to the battery under test, users can extend the capabilities of a TORKEL system for testing larger industrial battery banks.

The TXL865 supports battery systems up to 260V DC and provides a maximum current of 117A, with a maximum load power of 25.5kW. Multiple TXL units can also be used alongside a TORKEL to create a battery discharge system capable of handling currents of several kiloamps, making the unit particularly suitable for demanding stationary battery applications.

During testing, the TORKEL controls the discharge process and monitors the total battery current using an external clamp-on current probe. The TXL865 itself comprises a resistive load and works under control of the TORKEL, allowing constant-current or constant-power battery capacity tests to be carried out at higher load levels.

Designed for use in substations, industrial facilities, UPS installations and other environments containing large standby battery systems, the TXL865 provides a practical means of increasing the load capacity of an existing Megger TORKEL battery testing setup.
