Cautions This load bank is high-powered, technical, industrial equipment operating at dangerous voltages and temperatures. It is capable of damaging itself, property or personnel if improperly used. It is not a consumer product. It must be installed, connected and operated by personnel properly trained and experienced in its use. An operator s manual is supplied with each load bank and available online at www. simplexdirect.com. The operator must be familiar with its contents and have access to it during operation. High Voltage: Turn off and disconnect power source before opening this equipment High Temperature: Allow hardware to cool before servicing or opening this equipment. Rotating Equipment: Ensure that the fans have stopped before opening this unit. For Operator Safety: Make sure this equipment is properly grounded when in use. All compression-type connections on fuse blocks, load blocks, and contactors should be checked for tightness frequently. This check should be established as part of routine maintenance. Warnings and Cautions 1

2 Warnings and Cautions The following cautions should be observed before and during operation: Check intake and exhaust screens as well as fan and load elements for foreign objects. Position and install the load bank with consideration given to large cubic airflow requirements, exhaust temperature, and velocity. Do not point exhaust at any nearby surface or object that may be adversely affected by high temperature. This includes but is not limited to painted surfaces, tar paper and asphalt roofs, water sprinkler heads, fire alarms, and volatile material. Do not use in confined spaces. Do not allow the load bank s feet to sink into soft surfaces thereby cutting off bottom air intake. The load bank may have to compete with cooling air requirements of a nearby running engine generator set where cooling air intake to a confined space may not be adequate for both engine and load bank. Be especially careful not to bounce hot exhaust air off nearby obstructions for re-circulation through the load bank. Verify that all control switch positions are set correctly for your intended usage before connecting the load bank to the source to be tested. The load cables carry high amperage. Be constantly aware of possibility of inductively heating adjacent ferrous objects to temperatures sufficient to damage cable insulation. Always connect the safety ground cable to a proper ground. Do not rely on a possible grounded neutral somewhere else in the system. Do not let the load bank run unattended for long periods of time. Do not store or operate in rain unless adequate protection is provided. Routinely inspect all components and electrical connections for tightness and integrity. Repair any damaged or degraded components and wiring without delay. If technical assistance, service, or parts are needed, please call 800-837-8603 (24 Hours). All hardware covered by this manual have dangerous electrical voltages and can cause fatal electrical shock. Avoid contact with bare wires, terminals, connections, etc. Ensure all appropriate covers, guards, grounds, and barriers are in place before operating the equipment. If work must be done

around an operating unit, stand on an insulated dry surface to reduce the risk of electrocution. Do not handle any kind of electrical device while standing in water, while barefoot, or while your hands or feet are wet. If people must stand on metal or concrete while installing, servicing, adjusting, or repairing this equipment, place insulative mats over a dry wooden platform. Work on the equipment only while standing on such insulative mats. The National Electrical Code (NEC), Article 250 requires the frame to be connected to an approved earth ground and/or grounding rods. This grounding will help prevent dangerous electrical shock that might be caused by a ground fault condition or by static electricity. Never disconnect the ground wire while the load bank is in use. Wire gauge sizes of electrical wiring, cables, and cord sets must be adequate to handle the maximum electrical current (ampacity) to which they will be subjected. Before installing or servicing this (and related) equipment, ensure that all power voltage supplies are completely turned off at their source. Failure to do so can result in hazardous and possibly fatal electrical shock. In case of accident caused by electric shock, immediately shut down the source of electrical power. If this is not possible, attempt to free the victim from the live conductor. AVOID DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE VICTIM. Use a nonconducting implement, such as a dry rope or board, to free the victim from the live conductor. If the victim is unconscious, apply first aid and seek immediate medical attention. Never wear jewelry when working on this equipment. Jewelry can conduct electricity resulting in electric shock or may get caught in moving components causing injury. Keep a fire extinguisher near the hardware at all times. Do NOT use any carbon tetra-chloride type extinguisher. Its fumes are toxic, and the liquid can deteriorate wiring insulation. Keep the extinguisher properly charged and be familiar with its use. If there are any questions pertaining to fire extinguishers, please consult the local fire department. The illustrations in this manual are examples only and may differ from your load bank. Main Disconnect to be provided by installer, rated 600V maximum, sized 150% maximum of rated current. Load Bank warranty is void if incorrectly cooled. Warnings and Cautions 3

2 NAMEPLATES AND PLACARDS Nameplates and Placards 5

Did you know? Load banks simulate the real world loads that the power source will experience. Electrical load can be broadly classified as resistive, inductive and capacitive. In the real world, these components are mixed, as they are with a load bank, except with the load bank, full control of the components is possible. The most common load bank and the load bank which is suitable for general load testing is the resistive load bank. A resistive load bank converts electrical energy to heat. Within the load bank, the load is divided into discrete circuits or steps capable of stepwise, controlled application. Most load banks are cooled by forced air, but water can be used when silent operation is required.

3 DESCRIPTION AND SPECIFICATION The Simplex Swift-E Portable Load Bank allows quick and easy testing of small generators. The self-contained, lightweight, and hand-transportable load bank can be used to test and maintain AC generators, AC rectifiers, inverters, power supplies, RV generators, and other AC sources. The load bank is available as the standard 10KW Swift-E unit and the 15KW Swift-E+ unit. Swift-E load banks contain specially designed power resistors, high-temperature, silicone-insulated power wiring, industrial toggle switches, high-interrupting capacity fuses, and load connection cables. All control and cooling circuits operate from the source under test. Test instrumentation and connection cables are provided. For a parts legend, please see page 24. Always consult the parts legend drawing when ordering parts. Features The Swift-E unit features sealed tubular-type load elements made up of nickel-chromium resistance wire sealed in incoloy sheath (nickel alloy). To reduce the risk of electrical shock and short circuiting of elements, the element has a non-conductive exterior. The element is also rust-proof, vibration-proof, and shock-proof. Swift-E load banks have panel-mounted toggle switches for each load step, as well as a master load switch. This combination allows for precise load control as well as block loading. With a connection cable set of 10 with ring lug terminations, the load bank is encased in an environmental Type 1 enclosure of aluminum construction with exterior powder coating. In addition, the enclosure has protective rubber feet, handles for carrying, and cable wrap for neat storage. Safety To prevent dangerously high temperatures, Swift-E load banks have an over-temperature sensor to de-energize the load and activate the alarm indicator. Should the connection of the load bank be incorrectly installed, an over-voltage sensor will shut down the unit and activate the alarm indicator. For more information, see Alarms and Warnings on page 17. Description and Specification 7

Did you know? Simplex was founded in 1938 in Burlington, Iowa, by Michael Debrey, a Hungarian immigrant. A self-taught inventor, Debrey introduced multiple innovations to the electrical engineering field, including the Automatic Voltage Regulator. Simplex was moved to East Moline, Ill., where it remained until 1951, when the company relocated to Springfield, Ill. The company also has a facility in Atlanta, as well as service depots in Colorado, Georgia, Illinois, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Ohio and Texas.

5 INSTALLATION Load bank placement Proper placement of the load bank is essential for the operators safety and maintaining the integrity of the load bank. The load bank requires a 6 inches of clearances on the side and 8 inches on the rear. Avoid blocking the air inlets on the back and the bottom of the load bank (see Figure 1 Airflow diagram) and ensure the area around the load bank is clear of debris. Figure 1 Airflow diagram Wiring the load bank The load bank elements are cooled by dual 135mm fans, and the unit operator must make allowances for the hot load bank exhaust air. Using the connection chart found on the Swift-E load bank s nameplates (see Figure 2 Wiring directions), wire the load bank to the desired source for testing. Note: Please give 2-foot clearance on all sides as well. Figure 2 Wiring directions Installation 13

7 ALARMS AND WARNINGS Overheating Unresolved cooling issues may result in damage to the load bank. If the load bank s exhaust exceeds a safe temperature, the load deactivates and the operation cannot proceed. To fix this error, turn the load bank off and disconnect it from the testing source, then check for the cause of the failure. Possibilities include: Debris blocking air intake vents Load bank being operated too close to power source s exhaust Ambient temperature exceeding load bank s capabilities Load bank fans failing or becoming disconnected Once the cause has been determined and fixed, the load bank is ready to be reconnected and the operation can resume. Tripped circuit breaker The main breaker will trip and the unit will shut off if the Meter Range Selector Switch is set for 120 volts and the load bank is connected to 240 volts, If that happens, power down the testing source, disconnect the load bank, and ensure the Meter Range Selector Switch s setting matches the voltage of the test source. When you are sure the problem is corrected, remove the six (6) faceplate screws on the unit and reset the circuit breaker, which is located near the top of the assembly. You can then reconnect the load bank to the source, power up the source, and resume the operation. Alarms and Warnings 17

Did you know? Michael Debrey got the idea for the Automatic Voltage Regulator while working as an electrician at a furniture factory on the night shift.

Appendix A PRODUCT WARRANTY SIMPLEX, Inc., warrants the industrial electrical control, test and accessory equipment and parts and accessories thereof to be the kind and quality described in SIMPLEX s specifications and to be free from defects in material or workmanship under normal service, its obligations under this warranty being limited to repairing or replacing, at its option, any part or parts which shall, within twelve (12) months from date of shipment from its factory, as indicated by serial date code on the nameplate or sales records, be returned to SIMPLEX or an authorized SIMPLEX repair station, with transportation costs prepaid, and which its examination shall disclose to its satisfaction to have been thus defective. The provisions of this warranty shall not apply to any equipment, part or accessory which (a) has been improperly specified by buyer; (b) has been improperly stored or handled prior to placing in service; (c) has been improperly mounted or connected; (d) has not been operated within specifications stated on its nameplate, label or placard; (e) has not been properly maintained; (f) parts supplied by buyer for inclusion in finished equipment are not covered by this warranty; (g) components or assemblies specified by buyer with no substitution permissible that are not normally used by SIMPLEX. SIMPLEX reserves the right to reject warranty claims of any kind against assembled equipment, parts or material for which SIMPLEX has not received payment in full.
