All our dynamometer are supplied complete with an 4,3,2,1 and 1/2 SAE bell-housing adapter and torsional damper assembly for direct attachment to an engine bell-housing and flywheel respectively. In some instances the customer may prefer a fixed base dynamometer which is bolted to a base in the test cell. A special range of mounting adapters have been designed for this purpose to suit our P1200 , P2400 and P4000 dynamometers. The engine is coupled to the dynamometer by means of a drive shaft, torsional damper assembly and SAE flywheel drive plate. One of each of these components is included with the relevant quoted part numbers. The torsional damper assembly bolts directly to any of our SAE flywheel drive plates which can purchased separately in addition to the one free issue drive plate. Part numbers PFBM - 1200 PFBM - 2400 PFBM - 4000

The basic system comprises the following major components: 1. PIPER P2400 dynamometer is mounted in double trunnions fixed to two vertical end support plates. The end support plates are connected to a horizontal connecting plate complete with two slider plates for bolting to the rail. 2. A hydraulic support trolley for lifting the above assembly. 3. PIPER P15 EDA computer based data logging system or any other instrument from the PIPER range of instrumentation. 4. Voith output adapter suitable for connection to the dynamometer cardan shaft. 5. Dynamometer water system including supply pump.

PIPER P10 Torque & Speed. Pedestal mounted instrument console utilising the latest electronic technology to display torque and speed. Fitted as standard with emergency stop button and starting/ignition key. PIPER P11 Torque, Speed & 6 Temperatures. Similar to P10 but fitted with additional 6 temperature channels which are displayed by selection on a single digital unit. Probes and interface box are supplied as standard equipment.
PIPER P15 Desk type instrument console digitally displaying torque, speed, horsepower, boost, oil, crankcase and fuel pressures and 6 temperatures. In-cell transducer box which transmits signals to console, is fitted with additional oil pressure and speed display for operator observation when in-cell. Stop/start/emergency buttons and various warning light are included. RS 232/485 interface ports can be specified for transmitting signals to a personal computer which utilises PIPER P15 EDA software for display, disc storage or print out.
PIPER P15 EDA The Engine Data Acquisition system is an interface system utilising the transducers, software and data transmission developed for the P15. Transducer signals are transmitted to the serial port of a personal computer via a 232/485 converter. The PIPER software allows the same P15 -13 channels to be displayed on the screen. The operator can add engine build specifications and other notes of importance manually. Data can be selected and stored on disk or output as hard copy via a dot matrix printer.

Water tank
The water tank can be manufactured from plate steel (protected against corrosion), plastic, concrete (suitably sealed) or any other material able to withstand temperatures up to 195F (90C) and not affected by an antifreeze solution. The tank is not subjected to any pressure other than the weight of water in it and therefore does not require any certification. A baffle in the middle of the tank will create a hot and cold well. This baffle acts as a buffer but not a sealant between the two wells. It separates the cold water required to supply the dynamometer and the engine cooling system from the returned hot water. If a cooling tower is fitted, the hot water is circulated through the cooling tower while the cooled water is returned to the cold well. The location of the tank is important. It is essential that the water level in the tank is below the outlet port of the dynamometer so that the water can run freely away from it without any back pressure. Any resistance in the return lines will create overheating of the dynamometer and can cause serious damage. The location of the tank will influence the actual overall dimensions of it. If a pit can be excavated, the overall surface area required can be kept to a minimum as the depth of the pit will give increased height and, therefore, volume. While an above ground tank is restricted in depth since this is dictated by the outlet port height of the dynamometer. This usually dictates a larger surface area for an equal volume. Ideally the total tank volume required is between 1200 and 1500 gallons, this equates to between 4.8 and 6 cubic metres respectively. For example, an above ground tank is limited to 0.6 metre in height (to stay below the outlet port of the dynamometer). We therefore require a surface area of:

PIPER dynamometers
P1200, P2400 and P4000 absorption unit are bolted directly onto and close coupled to the engine. Floor mounted adapters and drive shafts are available for all models. See dynamometer specification sheets.

Inlet air
Inlet air should enter the test cell just above ground level via trunking attached to, or incorporated in the test cell wall. Louvered vents, adjustable from the cell, will allow the trunking to be shut off from the atmosphere when not in use. Typical cross area dimensions for the trunking, if two are fitted, would 2 sq.ft. each.

Cooling Tower
PIPER can supply a range of cooling towers developed for use with our dynamometers. The sizing of these towers depends very much on local climatic conditions and may vary from our recommended units. We will require local humidity and average temperatures to advise on the most suitable unit. Please contact the factory for further details These units combined with its circulation pump, is an optional extra. It will need to be considered if extended test periods are required. Water is pumped from the warm well in the tank to the top of the tower where it falls over a broken surface and, with the aid of a fan, heat is evaporated and the cooled water is returned to the main tank. A local cooling tower manufacturer or supplier will require the following information before recommending the most suitable unit for a particular duty and environment. (i) Flow through tower. As a separate circulation pump is used for the tower the manufacturer should be able to advise on the tower flow capability. This information will be required by the pump supplier to size the cooling tower circulation pump. (ii) Temperature coolant range: For the system to maintain a constant temperature the cooling tower must be able to dissipate 4242 BTU/min for every 100 BHP absorbed in addition to the 1060 BTU/min generated by the engine cooling system or 320000BTU/hr. (iii) The design ambient and operating altitude will be required for the correct sizing.

Extraction fan
The extraction fan and ducting should be mounted high in the test room. The fan motor can drive the fan by means of "V" belts and therefore out of the hot air flow. The installation should be capable of 15000 C.M.F. at 1" static pressure. It is advisable to incorporate a back or aft damper and bird screen.
