Simplex MicroStar Precision Air Heaters (Load Banks) enable comprehensive testing of data center hot aisle/cold aisle cooling systems. The MicroStar is a 19-inch rack mountable device (10U high) that can be easily installed into a wide range of standard server racks. Precision heat generation is possible via the integration of adjustable heat levels (load steps) and adjustable airflow (velocity and CFM).
The MicroStar+ is rated up to 17.5kw at 208-240vAC, single-phase, and connects to the rack power distribution bus via standard C19 plugs. The MicroStar is rated up to 14kw at 120-240vAC, single-phase, and connects via standard C13 plugs.
Available for purchase or rental.
