Power Saving Test Systems
Because of the rising energy costs and the efforts for energy conservation, manufacturing industries are recommended to use an electric motor test system that could very well be power efficient when performing tests.
Sakor Technologies Incorporated is a company in the United States that manufactures and develops reliable and cost-effective automated test instrumentation systems that caters a wide range of applications. The said company has over 20 years of experience in the manufacture of quality products and superior customer service that cater to a variety of markets such as automotive, performance racing, military, aerospace, marine, heavy equipment, electric motor, and consumer appliance, among others.
In the production of industrial and electronic equipment, a zoom microscope may be used in order to check the quality of the production output. With an arm that can be adjusted to a wide range of distance, a zoom microscope allows the observer to check the products ergonomically. With a wide range of magnification, the zoom microscope enables the visual checking of the tiny mechanical and electrical components that are placed for observation.
Recently, Sakor has ventured into the production of power saving testing systems that are developed to meet the rising testing needs for the efficiency of electric motor processes. They offer specific product packages that are based on DynoLAB EM electric motor test system. Their product packages are in compliance with the requirements set by the EPAct, NEMA, ISO, IIEE112, IIEE115, and other international standards.
With the use of Sakor’s AccuDyne line of AC monitoring dynamometers, the company claims that their test systems are exceedingly power efficient. The product is also equipped with an innovative regenerative method of electrical loading. As such, there is an extremely efficient performance in the re-circulation of absorbed power within the test system. Such performance results to a test system that has the capability to check the largest electric motors with only the minimal use of power from the electrical grid and almost without waste heat. Furthermore, the said test system is equally efficient at checking alternators and generators with the use of minimal electrical power.
Another desirable feature of Sakor’s product is that the test system eliminates the need for diesel power plants. As such, the inherent pollution caused and the logistical problem they create in the environment of the test cell.
They eliminate 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. As stated before, Sakor also produces the DynoLAB EM systems. This product line is optimized for all types of electrical motor and rotating component testing. Another product of Sakor is the DynoLAB PT system. This line is specifically developed to answer the requirements for engine and power-train test cells. Yet another one of Sakor’s products is the AccuDyne AC motoring dynamometers. These function in full four-quadrant operation with sizes that range from 5kW to over 1000kW.
Sakor is also into the production of very small AC dynamometers, the MicroDyne line. This line is optimized for small testing devices at 10W full scale.
