DESCRIPTION
Magtrol’s Model DSP6001 High Speed Programmable
Dynamometer Controller employs state-of-the-art Digital
SignalProcessingTechnologytoprovidesuperiormotortesting
capabilities. Designed for usewithany MagtrolHysteresis,

APPLICATIONS
Inthelaboratory,theDSP6001’shighsamplerateprovides
superior resolution for data acquisition andcurve plotting.
Thisallowsforcapturingmoreusablemotortestdataduring
switching, breakdown and other transitional areas of the
motor test curve.For production and incoming inspection,
theDSP6001displaystorque,speedandpoweratalltimes,
allowingtheControllertobeusedasamanualstandalone
unitoraspartofacompletePCsystem.
MOTOR TESTING SOFTWARE
Magtrol’sM-TEST5.0Software(sold separately)isastate-
of-the-artmotortestingprogramforWindows®-baseddata

MagtrolM-TEST5.0Softwareprovidesthecontrolofany
MagtrolDynamometerandrunstestsequencesinamanner
bestsuitedtotheoverallaccuracyandefficiencyoftheMagtrol
MotorTestSystem.ThedatathatisgeneratedbyMagtrol’s
