The Test and Engineering Center (TEC) in Phoenix, Arizona, provides clients with two environmental chambers. The largest measures 56 ft long, 13 ft high, and 16 ft wide, and is home to our Clayton IM 240IL chassis dynamometer.
The dynamometer has unidirectional double rollers and can accommodate a single drive axle. The system is air-cooled, with a radial-designed eddy-current absorber. The rollers are 8.65 inches in diameter and 108 inches wide, with a center spacing of 30 inches and a vehicle axle weight capacity of 6000 lbs, which accommodates most vehicle designs. The dynamometer is ideal for conducting the Electric Vehicle Energy Consumption and Range Test Procedure (SAE J1634).
