Description
- High-strength mechanical construction, with 6/8 mm sheet metal, use of only high-quality components from European production
- Can be converted into a 4wd test bench, adding the necessary parts at a later stage (progressive investment)
- Prepared for future installation of the mechanical connection of axes with cardan shaft
- Powerful 2,600 N eddy-current brake enables long test sessions without overheating
- It offers as an accessory, the additional support and vehicle positioning rollers, on the front axle to facilitate the loading/unloading of vehicles
- Customer's choice of colour included (RAL scale)
- It can be installed in the hole or podium (overfloor)
- Powder coating
CONTROL SOFTWARE FEATURES ( SPORT DEVICES models)
The SP5 control system is among the most advanced on the market. An evolved product, continuously updated according to the needs of our customers:
- Free software updates and downloadable directly from the Sport Devices website.
- Available test modes: Inertial, constant braking, ramp, road simulation, steady state, driving cycles.
- It allows compare an unlimited number of curves read from the database, which is assigned a different colour. This makes it possible to evaluate changes and improvements before and after modifications. An automatic pointer measures the difference between the curves along the entire graph in addition to the point measurement for each type of curve displayed.
- Calculate and display averages between tests or within a specific range.
- Up to 3 screens in REAL-TIME (PC with dedicated graphics card required).
- Correction factors: ISO1585, SAEJ1349, DIN70020, JISD1001, EC95-1, EWG 80/ 1269 (Also allows correction of curves according to air-intake temperature, via OBD interface or external probe).
- Units of measurement for power (Kw,hp), torque (Kg *m, N*m) is user selectable.
- Configurable estimated gear ratios: Engine caliper, OBDII / xDS / ECU, or estimation based on the vehicle's rev counter.
- Fully configurable analogue channels, either scale/offset or using an interpolation table.
- Connection High-speed Ethernet, CANBUS, Bluetooth (Optional), RS232.
- Vehicle OBDII interface, integrated or external weather station.
- Supports different models of exhaust analysers.
- The system implements a closed-loop' brake control. It also works without a computer (remote control).
- Remote control of accelerator actuator, clutch actuator, gearbox, fans etc. from PC software.
- Several options to configure the calculation process of power to vehicle characteristics, such as:
- Load cell deactivation during deceleration
- Maximum clutch filter: allows the clutch to be released for some vehicles, optimising its management
- Alarm function (channel supervision).
- Interface available in 10 languagesincluding Italian.
DATA ACQUISITION
- The Sport Devices control and acquisition system, offers several channels also under relay, dedicated to data acquisition from lambda, pressure, thermocouple probes; whether analogue or digital, system offers up to 24 channels, expandable with external recorders up to 112 channels.
- It can handle independently the ventilation systems in the test room, thanks to 4 controlled relays.
- Up to 16 channels calculated by the user. The function as wheel slip (based on the engine revolution channel).
- Target lambda correction and energy efficiency (on electric motors) can be automated.
EXECUTABLE TESTS
- Power Measurements (At the wheel, at the drive shaft, dissipate).
- Acceleration and Deceleration Test (To assess performance when the vehicle is subjected to external loads).
- Road simulation (To check vehicle performance, including with diagnostic tools).
- Inertial tests of acceleration and deceleration.
- Step tests, constant revolutions, programmable tests as lap/circuit simulation (CSV file).
