Magtrol’s WB23 and WB27 Eddy-Current Dynamometers are designed for very-high-speed motors and dental or surgical tool testing applications. By providing a braking torque that is proportional to the rotational speed, rated torque is reached at the rated speed.
The Dynamometers feature a low level of inertia, due to small rotor dimensions, and brake cooling is provided by air flow inside the dynamometer housing.
A PT temperature sensor continuously monitors the brake temperature and alarms the DSP7000 Controller to stop the brake excitation current in order to protect the dynamometer from overheating.
Torque is measured by a reaction torque transducer placed on the stator. The dynamometer has a torque measuring accuracy rating of ±0.2% full scale. The speed is measured by an optical sensor and a 2PPR (Pulses Per Revolution) encoder. This sensor measures speeds between 10000rpm and 100000rpm with a full scale accuracy of ±0.06% (using a DSP7000).
