5502/5503 – Manual Dynamometer Switch Box

Product Description

Magtrol Models 5502 and 5503 are manually-operated switch boxes that permit the connection of up to three Magtrol Dynamometers to a single Dynamometer Controller. Use of the switch boxes facilitates quick and easy interfacing to multiple dynamometers without the need to disconnect and reconnect the brake and control cables. For Magtrol WB Eddy-current or PB Powder Brake Dynamometers, BOTH a 5502 AND a 5503 Switch Box are necessary. Magtrol HD or ED Hysteresis Dynamometers only require the 5502.

The electrical current passing through the coil generates a magnetic field, which changes the property of the powder, thus producing a smooth braking torque through friction. They are ideal for applications operating in the low to middle speed range or when operating in the middle to high torque range. Like Hysteresis Brakes, Powder Brakes provide full torque at zero speed. Like the Eddy-Current Brake Dynamometers, the PB series are water-cooled, allowing for power ratings up to 48 kW. The PB Dynamometers have accuracy ratings of ± 0.3% to 0.5% full scale, depending on size and system configuration.

Features

  • 9 Models with Maximum Torque from 5 N·m to 1 200 N·m (3.69 lb·ft to 885 lb·ft)
  • Braking Power: 500 W to 48 kW
  • Stable Braking Torque
  • Low Moment of Inertia
  • Operation in Either Rotational Direction
  • Braking Torque Measurement Integrated
  • Integrated Optical Speed Sensor
  • Special designs available upon request

Operating Principles

The PB Series - Powder Dynamometers contain, as their name suggests, a magnetic powder. The electrical current passing through the coil generates a magnetic field, which changes the property of the powder, thus producing a smooth braking torque through friction between rotor and stator. The Powder Dynamometers (PB) produce their rated torque at zero speed. The element to be tested can be loaded at standstill to determine the starting torque. Optical Speed Sensor Each PB Series Dynamometer has a standard optical speed sensor. PB 43 has an optical speed sensor with a 30 PPR (Pulses Per Revolution); PB 65, PB 115 & PB 15 has an optical speed sensor with a 60 PPR. For higher speed resolution in low speed applications, Magtrol offers a 600 PPR or 6 000 PPR encoder as an option.

Magtrol offers three different types of external shunts for use with Magtrol Power Analyzers. The HA Series shunt, designed for power cable hook-up utilizing 3/8-16 screws, has an insulating base and can be mounted on conductive surfaces. The LAB Series shunt also comes with an insulating base, along with thumb screws for the power leads and knurled nuts on the sensing terminals. The FL Series is a relatively small bus, bar-mounted shunt with large end blocks. The comparatively large end blocks and short spacing aid in cooling and allow the shunt to operate in more extreme environments. All shunts are calibrated on equipment with current certifications traceable to N.I.S.T.
