The Model 1908 Starter Motor and Alternator Tester is designed to perform research and product development testing on automotive starters in absorbing mode or on alternators in motoring mode. The standard version of this versatile dynamometer has a maximum shaft speed of 4,000 rpm, however it can optionally be configured with a maximum shaft speed of up to 20,000 rpm.
A rotary torque transducer is used to precisely measure torque up to 20 N-m (15 lb-ft). An optional output spindle can be used to allow side loads on the shaft for such applications as testing belt driven alternators or starter pinions engaging a ring gear.
This tester integrates user-customizable ProLink software and Windows-based computerized controls for ease of operation. Modular construction offers convenience and easy access to all machine and test components. The device under test is mounted to a fixture attached to the T-slotted base plate. A sliding heavy gauge steel sliding guard, with an observation window, protects the operator. An environmental chamber may be added for conducting extreme temperature tests from –40oC to +150°C.
