4 Quadrant Dynamometer Test System
Magtrol’s 4 quadrant motorized dynamometers provides expanded testing flexibility over a typical braking dynamometer. With the ability to bring the motor under test (MUT) to synchronous RPM before beginning a test, repeatability is improved. Since the motor windings are at ambient temperature before starting a ramp test, wattage is more consistent.

Cogging Test System
CTS
Magtrol’s Cogging Test System is a stand-alone test system designed to control and measure Detent Torque, Cogging Torque and Friction Torque. The test System includes a precision geared motor, a TS Series Torque Sensor integrating a 5 000 pulses encoder. CTS 100 to CTS 102 have a built-in security clutches to avoid system overload by mishandling when not in use. The geared motor drives the MUT (Motor Under Test) at a low speed from 1 to 10 rpm (respectively 8 rpm for CTS 103 and CTS 104), while acquiring its cogging torque related to angle position.

Dial Weight Dynamometers
The most important characteristic of any measurement instrument is repeatability and accuracy. The Magtrol Dial Weight Dynamometer uses the combination of a Hysteresis Brake and gravity to insure constant, reliable results. The brake torque rise is directly proportional to applied current

Dynamometer Power Supply
DES Series
The DES 310 and DES 311 power supplies are suited to the entire range of Magtrol's Eddy-Current and Powder Brake Dynamometers. To avoid any disruption of the surrounding electronic modules, the DES 310 / DES 311 supplies are fitted in an industrial housing made of extruded cast aluminum. This housing must be installed directly on the test bench, as near to the dynamometer as possible.

Eddy-Current Dynamometers
WB Series
Eddy-Current Brake Dynamometers (WB Series) are ideal for applications requiring high speeds and also when operating in the middle to high power range. Eddy-Current Brakes provide increasing torque as the speed increases, reaching peak torque at rated speed. The dynamometers have low inertia as a result of small rotor diameter. Brake cooling is provided by a water circulation system, which passes inside the stator to dissipate heat generated by the braking power. The water cooling in the WB prov...show more -

Load Monitoring Units (LMUs)
Magtrol's Load Monitoring Units are used for measuring load, force and weight from signals generated by strain gauge transducers. Specifically designed for use with Magtrol's Load Measuring Pins and Load-Force-Weight Sensors, the LMU Series provides excitation voltage while conditioning the bridge output signal. Each unit contains DIP-switches and jumpers for greater flexibility and complete adaptability

Powder Brake Dynamometers
PB Series
The Powder Brake Dynamometer (PB Series) contains, as its name suggests, a magnetic powder. The electrical current passing through the coil generates a magnetic field, which changes the property of the powder, thus producing a smooth braking torque through friction. They are ideal for applications operating in the low to middle speed range or when operating in the middle to high torque range. Like Hysteresis Brakes, Powder Brakes provide full torque at zero speed. Like the Eddy-Current Brake Dyn...show more -

Power Amplifier
5241
The Model 5241 is a voltage-controlled power amplifier designed exclusively for Magtrol's Model HD-825 Hysteresis Dynamometer. Because of its double braking system, the HD-825 requires more than 4 amps of power in order to reach full torque. The 5241 (which can provide up to 5 amps of output current) is necessary in order to amplify the power between a 6200 or DSP6001 Controller (which both have a maximum current output of 1 amp) and the HD-825 Dynamometer.

Power Supply
5200
The Model 5200 is a basic unregulated power supply that is designed for use with Magtrol's Hysteresis Brakes and Clutches. The 5200 is available in either 12, 24 or 90 VDC voltages, corresponding to the available hysteresis brake/clutch coil voltage options. Braking control is enabled via a 10-turn potentiometer and adjustment knob located on the front panel.
