SBB 15 – Signal Breakout Box

Product Description
Magtrol’s SBB15 Signal Breakout Box is designed to assist in the monitoring of speed, torque, and index signals obtained from either a Magtrol dynamometer or torque transducer. The easy-to-use SBB15 is simply inserted in series between a Magtrol controller and any Magtrol dynamometer or torque transducer. Connections are made via D-Sub 15 signal cables.
Speed, torque, and index signals are outputted through BNC connectors to an oscilloscope or other DAQ instrumentation device. Switching to the external encoder will switch the Tach A, Tach B, and Index signals, while the Torque signal will still be passed through from the dynamometer or torque transducer. The SBB15 Signal Breakout Box is a convenient and reliable accessory that reduces the necessary wiring required for signal monitoring.
Features
- Two D-Sub 15 Connectors: provides an in-line connection between a Magtrol DSP Controller and a dynamometer or a torque transducer
- Four BNC Connectors: provides easy access to Tach A, Tach B, Torque, and Index signals for connecting to an oscilloscope or other data acquisition (DAQ) device
- Sturdy Assembly: packaged in an extruded aluminum case with metal mounting flanges
- An external encoder input is provided for connecting high resolution encoders
- A slide switch allows switching between a torque transducer and an external encoder

[post_content] => 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 DSP7000 Controller (which both have a maximum current output of 1 amp) and the HD-825 Dynamometer.

[post_content] => 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, providing high continuous power ratings (max. 140 kW). WB Series Dynamometers integrate a torque measuring system with accuracy ratings of ± 0.3 % to ± 0.5 % full scale, depending on size and system configuration.
Features
- 12 Models with Maximum Torque from 400 mN·m to 560 N·m (56.6 oz·in to 413 lb·ft)
- Braking Power: from 500 W to 140 kW
- Stable Braking Torque, without Shock
- Low Moment of Inertia
- Low Residual Torque
- Operating Direction CW / CCW
- Braking Torque Measurement Integrated
- High Rotational Speed (≤ 80 000)
- Integrated Optical Speed Sensor
- Special designs available upon request
Operating Principles
The WB Eddy-Current Dynamometers develop their full power at high rotation speeds. The WB Series is particularly intended for motors which rotate at high speeds, up to 80 000 rpm (up to 100 000 rpm with
WB 23 / 27; see specific datasheet). The braking torque depends on the rotation speed.
Optical Speed Sensor
Each WB Series Dynamometer is equipped with an optical speed sensor.
WB 32 is equipped with a 4 PPR (Pulses Per Revolution) encoder, WB 43 and WB 65 HS are equipped with a 30 PPR encoder; WB 65, WB 115 & WB 15 are equipped with a 60 PPR encoder.

[post_content] => Originally designed to test window lift gear motors, Magtrol’s FMF Series Fixed Motor Fixtures are used to secure motors in place while running any test. These versatile fixtures align the motor under test with Magtrol’s
HD-100, HD-106, HD-400, HD-500, HD-700 and HD-800 Series Dynamometers for easy setup and coupling—couplings can be provided upon request. Various adaptor rings (sold separately) can be customized to allow several different motors to be tested on the same fixture.
FMF Fixed Motor Fixtures can be mounted to any Magtrol Dynamometer T-slotted long base plate or any
Hysteresis Dynamometer Table with grooved table top (TAB 1457S, TAB 0800L and TAB 0825L). These fixtures are equipped with a precisely located rectangular key on the bottom of the plate for easy centering. Also included are four adjustable clamping levers and T-nuts.

[post_content] => The PC-150 Polarity Changer uses Magtrol’s M-TEST 7 Software to remotely switch the polarity of a DC power supply in order to reverse the direction of the motor under test. When switching polarity, the voltage sense lines will also change in order to maintain the proper polarity on the power supply sense terminals.
