time operation in sea water for thousands of hours. The linear hysterisis of the control ensures fast response and conditions the ship's load accordingly by adding an appropriate load value from the load bank. Upon recovery of the ship's load, the processor sheds load stages from the load bank to correspond with the controller's set value. The package is designed to be compact and provides for left or right hand installation. The unit can also be mounted vertically.
Where space is a problem the design allows for the control enclosure and/or the pump to be located separately. LSMC Load banks are compact and simple to install. The control panel supplied with the load bank incorporates all of the necessary switch gear, controls and the SmartLoad ® controller with circuit breaker protection for each load step.

LSMC Series Description
Installation of an appropriately sized LSMC type load bank connected in parallel with the ship's load, ensures smooth running and operation of the genset regardless of the onboard load condition. LSMC series load banks incorporate the SmartLoad ® LSM800 intelligent load monitoring microprocessor controller. The controller monitors the ship's load via a CT located on the genset alternator busbar and compares the load against a preset value determined for the size of the genset.
As the ship's load falls below the minimum level appropriate for the genset, step by step load stages are switched in from the load bank to supplement the ship's load.
The load bank is supplied as a complete system incorporating all controls and pump ready for connection.
The system and all components are engineered for onboard environments.
LSMC load banks are carbon fibre construction and incorporate Sephco NIC resistors manufactured from a special alloy and treated to minimise galvanic action and sea water conditions. The units have been tested in real
