    MDL4UB Series Multi-channel Modular Programmable Electronic Loads System from B&K Precision

    The MDL4UB Series is a multi-channel modular programmable electronic loads system designed in a compact 4U form factor. It offers nine different types of programmable DC load modules that range from 200 W to 600 W, giving users the flexibility to test various power sources, including multi-output DC power supplies, batteries, fuel cells, and photovoltaic arrays.

    MDL4UB Series Mainframe includes a controller and four open slots, allowing for any combination of modules up to a total of 2400 W (and up to 4800 W with a mainframe extension). The high-performance electronic load modules can operate in four modes: constant current (CC), constant voltage (CV), constant resistance (CR), and constant power (CW).

    Users can easily adjust the load parameters—such as voltage, current, slew rate, and width—via the front panel. To improve productivity, users can save their test parameters in any of the 101 available memory slots for quick recall. Additionally, the MDL4UB Series features 16-bit resolution, multiple protection modes, and a power-on system self-test to ensure stable and reliable operation.

    For remote communication, the MDL4UB Series supports LAN, USB (USBTMC-compliant), RS232, and GPIB standard interfaces, all of which are compatible with the SCPI command protocol.
