Dynamometer

The Test and Engineering Center (TEC) in Phoenix, Arizona provides clients with two environmental chambers. The largest, measuring 56 feet long, 13 feet high and 16 feet wide. This large chamber is home to our Clayton IM 240IL chassis dynamometer.

The dynamometer has unidirectional double rollers and can accomidate a single drive axle. The system is air-cooled with a radial designed eddy current absorber. The rollers are 8.65" in diameter, have a width of 108", a center spacing of 30" and a vehicle axle weight capacity of 6000-lbs which accommodates most vehicle designs. The dynamometer is ideal for Electric Vehicle Energy Consumption and Range Test Procedure (SAE J1634) testing.
