Benefits

• Integrated louvers can be opened and set in place in seconds, more quickly than removing protective steel panels
• Integrated louvers avoid the need to store panels and loose hardware during load bank operation
• Louver controls are easier to access and manipulate than removable steel panels, increasing convenience, productivity, and worker safety.

Features

Air intake/discharge ports on trailer-mounted load banks require protection during transport to avoid entry of damage-causing debris. The new louver device features;

• Rugged frame and vane design to withstand the stresses of frequent load band transport
• An intuitive lever arrangement that is easy to access and operate.
• A locking pin that prevents inadvertent lover opening during transport and inadvertent closure during operation
• Compatibility for retrofit to existing ASCO units

“Equipment rental and testing service firms frequently move trailerable load banks from site-to-site,” says David Jesberger, Offer Manager for ASCO Load Banks. “Based on their feedback, we designed this new feature to streamline deployment and increase convenience. Our product video compares the simple steps for operating our simple louvers to the actions needed to remove and store panels. After they try it once, our users never want to go back.”
