Testing and verifying level of efficiency of electric motors

SAKOR Technologies announces that it has provided its Electric Motor Efficiency Testing Dynamometer system to TÜV SÜD for testing and verifying the level of efficiency of electric motors in accordance with a variety of national and international standards, including IEC 60034-2-1; IEEE 112B; Canadian standard C390-93; and IS 12615. The SAKOR units can be used to test from two to eight pole motors ranging from 10 watts to more than 3 megawatts.

TÜV SÜD conducts necessary testing and certifies compliance with legal regulations and international standards. TÜV SÜD will use the new SAKOR motor efficiency testing dynamometer for its program of certification testing of single and three-phase AC electric motors for consumer, commercial, and industrial use. Each system has been optimised to test the widest possible range of motor sizes and still maintain required accuracy tolerances.

Capable of performing all existing international electric motor efficiency standard tests, the TÜV SÜD dynamometer systems provide an essential tool to engineers seeking to reduce fossil fuel consumption and enhance energy efficiency. They will be invaluable in helping to meet strict environmental standards and regulations that are now being enforced internationally.
