The Mi-BEAM Series was created for the growing demands of EV, energy storage and renewable energy testing. In battery cycling mode, the Mi-BEAM charges and discharges a battery or pack under precisely controlled current, voltage and power profiles. In battery simulation mode, it emulates the electrical behaviour of a battery — including programmable internal resistance — without a physical battery present. The PV simulation mode uses programmable I-V curves to replicate solar panel characteristics for inverter MPPT testing. Regenerative operation returns absorbed energy to the AC mains, making continuous high-power cycling economically practical. The 2,000 V models address high-voltage EV and stationary storage systems.
All-in-One Energy Test Platform
Battery test, battery cycling, battery simulation and PV simulation software all included — one instrument covers the full energy storage and renewable energy test workflow.
9.25 kW/U Power Density
Industry-leading 37.5 kW in a 4U chassis — four times the density of conventional high-power bidirectional supplies, minimizing rack footprint.
2,000 V High-Voltage Models
2,000 VDC capability addresses next-generation high-voltage EV battery packs and stationary storage systems up to 800 V nominal.
5-Year Warranty + Innovation Award
Backed by AMETEK's 5-year warranty and recognized with the 2025 AMETEK Innovation Award for bidirectional DC test excellence.
