Climate Chamber Dynamometer

A special dynamometer system has been developed which in one machine incorporates the capability of two or more dynamometer systems by permitting accurate testing of motor vehicles within an inertia range of 1500 to 7500 lbs. equivalent vehicle mass, with tractive efforts up to 10 000 N.

The unique load measurement system incorporating load platforms which measure tractive effort at the vehicle wheels, permits accurate simulation over this very wide range.

Twelve months of usage for driveability and lubricant tests have provided accurate results within a wide range of climatic conditions.
