Our 35X-Series engine dynamometers are designed for testing the majority of on and off-highway diesel engines and large electric motors. This series offers test capacities from 50-2100 HP, and operating speeds to 4000 RPM. The 35X-Series dynamometers are an updated version of Power Test's original 25X-Series dynamometers, with proven performance for more than 25 years.
Each X-Series dynamometer features a trunnion-mounted, fixed base design. These dynamometers provide equal load capability in either direction of rotation. Power Test dynamometers are constructed of multiple absorption sections offering the flexibility to test prime movers of widely varying outputs with the same dynamometer. By closing off selected sections, the absorption characteristics are able to be closely matched to the engine or motor's capability.
The through shaft design allows either end of the dynamometer to be driven and for dynamometer mounted starting systems to be attached and used. Although supplied to provide long term service, internationally available bearings and seals are used in every X-Series dynamometer and are located in easy-to-access cartridges to allow field service without the need for dynamometer removal or specialty tools.
Power Test manufactures and supplies a wide variety of engine testing components, ranging from drive shafts and engine adapters to water recirculation systems and data acquisition and automated control. The above illustration provides an example of what is typically found in an engine dynamometer test cell.
