Product details

B&K Precision 150W DC Electronic Load, Model BK8540

The BK8540 DC electronic load is a compact, economically priced instrument equally well-suited for use on the bench and the production floor. Although it comes in a small package, the BK8540 can reliably test a 5-volt power supply to 30 amps and do it continuously.

The load can operate in CC, CV or CR mode while voltage/current or resistance/power values are measured and displayed in real time, offering the flexibility to test a variety of DC power sources.

The BK8540 performance is comparable to that of most full-size bench DC electronic loads, but it can do the job at lower cost and takes up less space.

Features and Benefits:

  • Full digital control

  • Input on/off control

  • Operates between 0-60 Vdc, 1 mA-30 A (150W maximum)

  • Easy operation

  • Bright, easy-to-read LED display

  • Very compact and lightweight

  • Two current ranges: 3 A (1 mA resolution) and 30 A (10 mA resolution)

  • Constant current (CC), constant resistance (CR) and constant voltage (CV) operation

  • Overcurrent and overvoltage protection for great reliability

  • Short mode to simulate shorts

  • Save up to 400 instrument settings
