Tractor PTO test, PTO dynamometer, power takeoff
Tractor PTO test (power takeoff test) refers to a series of tests performing on a dynamometer which is connect to a tractor power output shaft and the tractor is stationary. Agricultural tractor PTO output power test parameters include speed, torque, power, fuel consumption and so on. Tractor PTO test, PTO dynamometer can be applied to tractor as PTO test. Once the gearbox and torque sensor are removed, it can be the internal combustion engine bench test.
Tractor PTO test, PTO dynamometer for endurance test
According to PTO test requirements, the tractor output power takeoff test bench, using eddy current brake, consists of mechanical and control system. The mechanical parts are shown as below.
The PTO control system configuration diagram is as below.
Tractor PTO test, PTO dynamometer measurement parameters
- PTO torque
- PTO speed
- Engine speed
- Fuel consumption
- Ambient temperature
- Ambient atmospheric pressure
- Ambient humidity
- Oil temperature
- Air intake pressure
- Engine exhaust pressure
- Cooling medium inlet and outlet temperature
- Fuel pressure
- Engine exhaust temperature
The above parameters are measured by the corresponding sensor and FC2022 Data acquisition module to complete. The sensor accuracy is not less than 0.5%. Taking into account the measurement and control system is scalable, the following signals or data should be measured:
- Smoke signals or data from the opacimeter;
- Air intake and exhaust flow measurement signals or data;
- Emissions analyzer data (CO, NOx, HC, PM, CO2) signals or data.
