Description
Magtrol's Model 6200 is an Open-Loop Controller designed
for use with any Magtrol Hysteresis Dynamometer. The unit
provides open-loop control of the dynamometer via an internal
current-regulated power supply. With a high-quality vacuum
fluorescent readout, the Model 6200 displays torque, speed
and mechanical power values of the motor under test. In place
of mechanical power, it can also display auxiliary transducer
readings via the ± 5 V DC analog input. These displayed
values can be stored internally or output via the RS-232 or
IEEE-488 interface.
pass/Fail motor testing
The Model 6200 comes with an easy-to-use motor testing
Pass/Fail feature. This feature is ideal for quick pass/fail
(go/no go) testing in production and incoming inspection
applications.
When the 6200 is operated in the Pass/Fail mode, one of three
readings is used as the tested parameter: torque, speed or the
auxiliary transducer. The two parameters not used are set with
user-defined upper and lower acceptable limits. As the motor
is loaded to the tested parameter value (for example, speed),
the other two parameters (in this case, torque and transducer)
are measured. Test results (for the other 2 parameters) are
indicated with a “PASS” or “FAIL”, or the display can be
toggled to show the actual values.
