HPL-2400 Datasheet
HPL-2400 Series
High Power Loads
Features:
•
2400 W resistive load
•
Very low inductance allows fast rise and
fall times in pulsed applications
•
Fault detection
•
RoHS compliant
The HPL-2400 product line features allow flexible, reliable, high-power loads that meet demanding
needs with a standard product. Seven standard load values including .125, .250, .500, 1, 2, 5 and
10 ohms are available. Custom values from .125 to 125K ohms can be configured at the factory
in order to directly match specific load characteristics (i.e. laser diode). The status monitor allows
users to monitor the temperature of the heat sink and provides a warning when the temperature
exceeds 60C. The module is enclosed to protect the components and ensure reliable, long-term
use. Liquid cooling and a 2400 watt load rating allow for use in a wide variety of applications from
very low power to the full rating of the module. The low-inductance design enables the testing of
high-speed pulsed applications.
Using the load is simple utilizing either the DB-37 connector or ring terminals. The DB-37 con-
nector allows the load to be used in pulsed applications with less than 100 ns rise and fall times.
Ring terminals can be used for DC applications.

Maximum duty cycle is dependant on input voltage and maximum DC current as constrained
in the SOA graph.
Duty Cycle Maximum = (DC Current Maximum SOA graph) / (Pulse Current)
Example: Input Voltage
= 125 V (user requirement)
DC Current Maximum = 20 A (taken from SOA graph)
Desired Pulsed Current = 600 A (user requirement)
Duty Cycle Maximum = 3.33%
(as calculated below)
Duty Cycle Maximum = (DC Current SOA graph) / (Pulsed Current)
Duty Cycle Maximum = (20 A) / (600 A) = 3.33% Duty Cycle Maximum
