What is a
waterbrake? Some Dynamometers use water as a load mechanism during engine testing. Water flow proportional to desired applied load is used to create resistance to the engine or motor. A controlled flow of water is directed at the absorber center, and via centrifugal force, is expelled towards the outside of the dynamometer and into the stator. As the water hits the stator, it decelerates, causing an applied load to the input device. Through the water's continual acceleration and deceleration, load may be controlled and measured. This is a very effective and safe way to measure the performance of an engine running under a controlled load. The dynamometers feature water as a braking mechanism, (or absorber), hence the name waterbrake. |

THIS SETUP INCLUDES THE DATA ACQUISITION READOUT MODULE |
It is just the
dynamometer and not the computer, which can still be purchased very
easily. The dyno was made by precision dyno racing for ESP emissions
testing. Right now the dyno is set up for 250hp max but with a
different PAU can handle much more horsepower.

SUPERFLOW MODEL 800 DYNO. LIKE NEW CONDITION |
|
|
|
|
|
THIS IS AN OLDER MUSTANG CHASSIS DYNAMOMETER THAT WAS
ORIGINALLY USED FOR SPEEDOMETER CALIBRATION. IT ORIGINALLY USED A PANEL
THAT WOULD DISPLAY MPH AND AN ELECTRO/PNEUMATIC ACTUATOR THAT WOULD
APPLY THE DISK BRAKES TO STOP THE ROLLERS. IT HAS BEEN SINCE MODIFIED BY
ADDING A HAND ACTUATED BRAKE LEVER CONTROLLING THE DISK BRAKES TO ADD A
LOAD OR STOP THE ROLLERS. THE ORIGINAL CONTROL PANEL/DISPLAY POWERED UP
BUT DID NOT ACCURATELY DISPLAY THE MPH. IT WAS DISCONNECTED AFTER A
QUICK CHECK WITH MUSTANG DID NOT PRODUCE GOOD FEEDBACK AS TO THE
AVAILABILITY OF PARTS FOR A DYNO OF THIS AGE.
IT IS IN GOOD CONDITION AND WAS USED RECENTLY FOR TESTING SMALLER INDY TYPE RACE CARS. SOFTWARE WITH APPARATUS TO ACCURATELY MEASURE HORSEPOWER IS READILY AVAILABLE FROM A NUMBER OF SOURCES ONLINE. ONE WAS AS LOW AS $175. I INVESTIGATED IT'S USE AND THE KNOW LEGIBLE OPINION OF THOSE I SPOKE WITH WAS THAT CONSIDERING IT'S SIZE AND WEIGHT OF ROLLERS ETC. IT COULD ACCURATELY MEASURE HP IN THE 150HP RANGE. YOU CAN ADD A LOAD WITH THE BRAKE AND "ABSORB" MORE HP BUT WITHOUT ADDED MASS I.E. A FLYWHEEL OR SOMETHING IT WOULD NOT BE ACCURATE.
