High Speed Rotating Component Test Stands

Electric Power Equipment Company dominates a specific test stand market involved in simulation testing of high speed rotating components, primarily in the military ground vehicle and aerospace sectors. The common denominator is the high-speed direct drive system utilizing variable frequency drives in excess of 500 HZ and special precision balanced motors designed for speeds in excess of 20,000 RPM. We provide specific solutions to your needs by furnishing a special equipment survey to assist us in understanding your requirements. A brief description of some of the pre-engineered designs are listed below:

The SARG Series Test Stand

The SARG Series Test Stand drives, loads and monitors devices under test to provide precision simulation testing of starters, alternators, regulators and generators utilized by ground vehicles, including oil cooled generators found on tanks, self-propelled artillery and personnel tracked vehicles.

Model 1174

Model 1174 has a 100 -12,000 RPM, 55 HP variable speed drive, dual simultaneous 12/24 VDC 1000 Ampere combined resistive loading, simple touch screen HMI for monitoring and control with generator oil cool system capacity of 12 GPM and 200 PSI. The 1174 includes separate HMI's for simultaneous testing of a starter and a generator, an oscilloscope, automatic set controls for oil temperature by varying flow through oil to air heat exchangers. Special accessories allow scavenging of oil through the face of the direct drive generator under test.
