TANDEM Series | Double Dynamometer in Line

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Magtrol Tandem Series features double dynamometers combining Eddy-Current (WB Series) and Magnetic Powder (PB Series) brakes, designed for testing electric motors and transmission systems.
Features:
  • 13 models with torque from 5 N·m to 1200 N·m.
  • Braking power between 3 kW and 140 kW.
  • Stable braking torque and low inertia.
  • Integrated optical speed sensor and torque measurement.
Description: These dynamometers use water cooling for power ratings up to 140 kW and offer torque measurement accuracy of ±0.3% to ±0.5% full scale.
Applications: Suitable for testing various motors, allowing complementary operation of WB and PB dynamometers.
Specifications: Detailed specifications include rated torque, drag torque, input inertia, power, and speed limits. A 20% reserve in torque and power is recommended for continuous operation.
Configurations: Can be complemented with electronic modules like DES Series, TSC 401, and DSP 7000. Torque transducers are available for precision measurements.
Dimensions: Detailed dimensions are provided, emphasizing water cooling needs. Metric units are used with English conversions.
Graphs: Torque-speed-power curves illustrate performance across speeds.
Specifications: Detailed specifications for Eddy-Current and Powder Dynamometers include weight, dimensions, and calibration details. WB Series is designed for high-speed applications with water cooling for up to 140 kW. PB Series uses magnetic powder for braking torque at zero speed.
Procedures: Calibration procedures specify grooves for calibrations in N·m with weight in kg or N. Ordering information for configurations is included.
Standards and Recommendations: 3D STEP files are available, and contacting sales technicians for technical information is advised. Correct power supplies and controllers are crucial for performance.
System Options and Accessories: Options include DSP 7000 Controller, TSC 401 Conditioner, DES Series Power Supplies, and MODEL 7500 Power Analyzers, enhancing testing capabilities.

TANDEM Series | Double Dynamometer in Line-1

TANDEM SERIES TANDEM SERIES DOUBLE DYNAMOMETERS IN-LINE Magtrol offers 3 types of dynamometer brakes to absorb load: Hysteresis (HD Series), Eddy-Current (WB Series) and Magnetic Powder (PB Series). Each type of Dynamometer has advantages and limitations and choosing the correct one will depend largely on the type of testing to be performed. With over 50 standard models to choose from, Magtrol Sales professionals are readily available to assist in selecting the proper Dynamometer to meet your testing needs. FEATURES ▪ 13 Models with Maximum Torque: 5 N·m ... 1 200 N·m (3.6 lb·ft... 885 lb·ft) ▪ Braking Power: 3 kW ... 140 kW ▪ Stable Braking Torque, without Shock ▪ Low Moment of Inertia ▪ Operating Direction CW / CCW ▪ Braking Torque Measurement Integrated ▪ Integrated Optical Speed Sensor ▪ Special designs available upon request DESCRIPTION Eddy-current Brake Dynamometers (WB Series) provide increasing torque as the speed increases, reaching peak torque at rated speed. They are ideal for applications requiring high speeds and also when operating in the middle to high power range. Powder Brake Dynamometers (PB Series) provide full torque at zero speed and are ideal for applications operating in the low to middle speed range or when operating in the middle to high torque range. Tandem Dynamometers are based on the combination of Eddy-current Dynamometers (WB  Series) and Powder Dynamometers (PB  Series) mounted in line on a common base and connected by an electromagnetic clutch. Both dynamometers are cooled by a water circulation system, which passes inside the stator to dissipate heat generated by the braking power, allowing a power rating up to 140 kW. Both WB and PB Dynamometers integrates a torque measurement system with accuracy ratings of ±  % to ±  % full 0.3  0.5  scale, depending on size and system configuration. APPLICATIONS Mounted on test benches, TANDEM Dynamometers allow performance and reliability testing on driving elements such as electric motors, servomotors, geared motors, reduction gears, pneumatic equipment, hydraulic transmission systems and starter motors. TANDEM OPERATING PRINCIPLES Because the characteristics of the WB and PB dynamometers are complementary, Magtrol is able to offer them mounted in a tandem setup. Each dynamometer (WB and PB) can autonomously operate according to its own characteristics (Please refer to specific data sheet). An electromagnetic clutch will automatically switches off at the maximum speed of the PB Powder Dynamometer and automatically switches on at zero speed. Once the system is working over the PB Powder Dynamometer speed limit, the clutch cannot be switched on before the system being at 0 rpm (no longer rotating). DUAL - DOUBLE WB DYNAMOMETER IN TANDEM OPTICAL SPEED SENSOR For application requiring higher power in a dedicated speed range, Magtrol offers some of the Eddy Current Dynamometer mounted in line on a common base. This would be for example the models 2 WB 65 + 2 WB 65 (rated torque 40 N·m, max  speed 24 000 rpm, max power 24 kW) or 2 WB 115 + 2 WB 115 (rated torque 200 N·m, max speed 15 000 rpm, max power 60 kW). Each TANDEM has an optical speed sensor delivered as standard. TANDEM  has an optical speed sensor with 43 30 PPR (Pulses Per Revolution); TANDEM 65, TANDEM 115 & TANDEM  has an optical speed sensor with a 60  15 PPR encoder.
