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] => 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.

With over 50 years’ experience in dynamometer design and torque measurement, Magtrol has revolutionized the industry. Magtrol’s new Micro Dyne, capable of measuring extremely low torques (2.0 mN·m can be resolved to 0.0004 mN·m), is designed exclusively for testing miniature and micro motors.

For the utmost convenience, the Micro Dyne is packaged as a complete motor testing system. Everything that is needed to accurately and efficiently test miniature motors and micro motors is included with the purchase of a Magtrol Micro Dyne. The only component that needs to be supplied by the customer is a laptop or desktop personal computer and a motor power supply.

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.
