Key Features:

• Enables a wide range of investigations into the characteristics of four-stroke, single-cylinder petrol and diesel engines
• Four-stroke diesel and four-stroke petrol engines available separately
• Includes comprehensive instrumentation
• Optional ancillaries available to extend the range of study even further
• Test bed trolley mounted for mobility
• Quick, convenient and accurate engine mounting and changeover
• Robust, simple hydraulic dynamometer
• No need for large electrical supplies
• Instrumentation and test bed are separate to avoid vibration being transmitted to measuring devices
• Self-sealing couplings enable quick and efficient connection and disconnection of fuel lines with minimum loss or spillage of fuel
• Works with TecQuipment’s Versatile Data Acquisition System (VDAS®)

Description:

• VDAS allow:
  • VDAS® enables accurate real-time data capture, monitoring and display
  • Calculation and charting of all relevant parameters on a computer
  • Tests quick and reliable
• The main components of the test set are:
  • a heavy fabricated portable bed
  • a bench-mounted instrumentation frame
• The bed sits on a trolley for portability. It includes a robust, precision-machined, trunnion-mounted hydraulic dynamometer. A significant advantage of using a hydraulic dynamometer is that no large electrical supplies are required as the engine power is dissipated into the water used to load the dynamometer.
• The engines (available separately) are supplied pre-mounted on a sturdy precision base plate
• Measure air flow, an air-box and orifice plate are located underneath the engine bed on the trolley.
• The instrumentation is mounted on a sturdy frame. The frame has a single power inlet and several power outlets to supply the various display units (either those provided as standard or those provided as optional extras). The
  instrumentation and test bed are separate in order to avoid vibration being transmitted from the engine to the measuring devices.
