SAKOR Tech Announces DYNOLAB™ EM Electric Motor Testing Systems

SAKOR Technologies, Inc. announced its DynoLAB™ EM electric motor test system. Designed to meet EPAct, NEMA, ISO, IEEE (112 and 115) and other international standards, the test systems themselves are described as extremely power efficient.

Utilizing SAKOR’s AccuDyne™ line of ac motoring dynamometers and a regenerative method of electrical loading, these systems are described as highly efficient at re-circulating absorbed power within the test system, resulting in a system that can test even the largest electric motors while drawing only minimal power from the electrical grid, and generating almost no waste heat. The company claims that these systems are equally efficient at testing alternators and generators, requiring only minimal electrical power and completely eliminating the need for diesel power plants and the inherent pollution and logistical problems they create in the test cell environment.

SAKOR offers a complete line of dynamometer-based systems to meet most all testing needs. Its DynoLAB™ EM systems are optimized for all types of electrical motor and rotating component testing. The DynoLAB™ PT system was specifically designed to meet the needs of engine and power-train test cells. Its AccuDyne™ ac motoring dynamometers offer full four-quadrant operation in sizes ranging from 5kW to over 1000kW, and the new MicroDyne™ line of very small ac dynamometers is optimized for testing devices as small as 10W full scale.
