DES Series – Power Supplies

Product Description

DES Series Power Supplies are specially designed for the full range of Magtrol’s Eddy-current and Powder brake dynamometers with the design goal providing the best response time. The DES Series supplies are packaged in an industrial housing made of cast aluminum. This offers superior protection against radiated emissions in order to avoid any disruption of the surrounding electronics modules. This housing must be installed directly on the test bench, next to the brake, as close as possible.

The DES Series supplies can be controlled by digital signals and analog set point coming from peripheral electronics. The DSP7010 Dynamometer Controller has been designed to work with the DES Series.

Control

The Power supply can be switched ON by remote control. The STAND-BY signal enables the output current to be delivered. This excitation current is controlled by a set-point in the 0-10 V DC range. The nominal value of the excitation current is set by internal resistors. There are two discrete outputs for alarms (open collector). The first is the “Temperature Alarm”. It will indicate if the cooling water of the Dynamometer or the inner temperature of the DES Series are out of limits. The second is the “Electrical Alarm”. It occurs when an over current or a short circuit is detected. The output current is immediately turned OFF and latched while the General Alarm Relay is set under its Alarm position. A low state for 200 ms of the Stand-by signal resets the latch.

For applications with TANDEM dynanometers, the DES Series units also control the power supply of the electromagnetic clutch.

Supply Voltage

The main supply voltage of the DES Series is in the 115/230 VAC – 50/60 Hz range. No selection is required.

The DES 410 power supply features a galvanic insulation between the main circuit and the dynamometer power.

The DES 411 does not have galvanic separation. For safety reasons, the DES Series case has to be grounded and the use of a ground fault current circuit breaker is recommended.

Ordering Information

When the DES Series is ordered separately from the dynamometer, it is absolutely necessary to specify which model of Eddy-current (WB Series) or Powder Brake (PB Series) Dynamometer will be used with the DES power supply in order to limit the operating current and prevent possible damage to the dynamometer brake. Mains voltage (115 VAC or 230 VAC) should also be defined when ordering.

Analog Input Measurement

Up to 128 thermocouples or analog sensors can be read and monitored during a motor test. Heat rise curves on the bearings, windings and housing of a motor can be performed and air flow/exhaust efficiencies can be measured with an air tool or internal combustion engine. M-TEST 7, with its complete dynamometer control, even allows for analog measurement while performing load simulation for duty cycle and life testing.

Applications

M-TEST 7—besides being well-suited for simulating loads, cycling the unit under test and motor ramping—is also ideal for production line and inspection applications, due to its pass/fail test function. Another time-saving feature that engineering labs will benefit from, is the ability to duplicate tests and run them automatically. This versatile program is extremely valuable to anyone involved in motor testing.

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). The WB dynamometers have accuracy ratings of ± 0.3% to 0.5% full scale (± 2% for WB 2.7), depending on size and system configuration. Additional options include: high-speed version, speed pickup, mechanical rotor blocking device, OEM version IS and vertical mounting.

Features

  • 13 Models with Maximum Torque from 300 mN·m to 560 N·m (42 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
  • 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 65 000 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 has an optical speed sensor delivered as standard. WB 2.7 & WB 43 has an optical speed sensor with a 30-PPR encoder; WB 65, WB 115 & WB 15 has an optical speed sensor with a 60-PPR encoder.

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 (± 2% for PB 2.7), depending on size and system configuration. Additional mounting possibilities include speed pickup and OEM version IS.

Features

  • 12 Models with Maximum Torque from 600 mN·m to 1 200 N·m (84 oz·in to 885 lb·ft)
  • Braking Power: 150 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 an optical speed sensor delivered as standard. PB 2.7 & PB 43 has an optical speed sensor with a 30-PPR encoder; PB 65, PB 115 & PB 15 has an optical speed sensor with a 60-bits pulse wheel. For higher speed resolution in low speed applications, Magtrol offers a 600-PPR or 6000-PPR encoder as an option.
