HILLSTONE

Hillstone design & manufacture an extensive range of load banks for AC – UPS & Genset testing and DC – standby battery & lithium-ion discharge testing.

Regular load bank testing of generators provides an essential health check service to prevent diesel engine failure due to wet stacking. Wet stacking occurs due to under loading of the genset which results in wet un-burned fuel building up in the engine. This fuel build-up will over the timeline the combustion chamber cylinders and cause a reduction of the engine’s rating and efficiency which will ultimately cause premature failure of the generator. Running the generator on a load of 50% – 100% of the Genset rating will allow the engine to reach the recommend operating temperature, which will burn off the choke deposits.

Also, an extensive range of datacentre IST load banks to test data center battery Discharge testing is the approved method to determine the capacity of Lead-acid and (Nickel Cadmium) Ni-Cad/Ni-Cd batteries, as recommended by all battery manufacturers such as Enersys, Exide, C&D Technologies, Hawker, Yuasa, Exide, Hoppecke, Saft, Varta, and in accordance to BS6290 part 4 / IEC TR 62060.
