In naval and aeronautics, the installation of a thermal engine requires major assembly operations that are sometimes irreversible (eg: the case of submarines or large-volume ships). It is necessary to make sure that the engine is working properly before mooring it and that it is fine-tuned before launching it. The load bank allows this role to be fully fulfilled by testing the motors in real conditions by simulating the future electrical load of the ship. The bench will stimulate the engines and confirm their good performance and compliance with the specifications.

Load bank rental – powers between 200kw and 2MW in resistive or inductive with variable cosine phi – is an additional advantage when the need is temporary. Rentaload has shipbuilders, shipyards, the national navy and engine manufacturers as clients.
