Dynamometer Testing

Our product development facilities are equipped to test and characterize a wide range of electric motors, generators, power electronic controllers and integrated systems. Five separate dynamometer test cells allow testing of systems from fractional horsepower motors to 150+ horsepower traction drives. Our largest dynamometer is capable of testing systems rated up to 330 hp. Test facilities include a 250 kW variable voltage solid state power supply; 20 kW and 75 kW motor/ generators for regulated DC power supply; 32, 50 and 400 hp absorption dynamometers; a custom AC compressor system dynamometer; an environmental test chamber capable of -77 °C to 177 °C and 20% to 90% humidity; and an electromagnetic interference (EMI) chamber.

Accurate calibration of all test equipment is maintained on an annual calibration cycle and is traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
