ITECH IT8900A/E: Programmable DC Load for Power Electronics
The ITECH IT8900A/E Series is suitable for loading power supplies, DC/DC converters, chargers, batteries, and fuel cells. It enables reproducible load, discharge, and protection tests in development, validation, and automated test systems.
Scalable power: Models with 150 V, 600 V, or 1200 V cover a power range from 2 to 54 kW per unit. In master/slave parallel operation, the total power can be expanded up to 600 kW.
Dynamic and automated testing: Dynamic Mode, List programming, OCP/OPP testing, Auto Test, and battery testing support load transients, test sequences, protection-point testing, and defined discharge procedures. The A Series offers eight operating modes, including combined modes; the E Series supports CC, CV, CR, and CP.
System integration: LAN, USB, RS232, GPIB, CAN, analog control, and SCPI enable integration into test benches and ATE systems. Integrated protection and limit functions support safe operation.
Alternative Products
For applications requiring higher dynamics and additional analysis functions, the ITECH IT8100A/E Series is a suitable alternative. For conventional high-power DC load testing with very high currents, the ITECH IT8400 Series is a suitable option.

Supplier
LXinstruments has been supplying ITECH equipment since 2020. When an individual instrument needs to become part of a complete test system, we support you with product selection, system sizing and integration into the automation environment. The key is to ensure that the DUT, power requirements, interfaces and test sequence work together.
We also use ITECH equipment in customized test systems. Depending on the test application, we combine power supplies, electronic loads, grid simulation and measurement technology so that the functions match both the DUT and the test sequence.
