AWD 500

The AWD-500-SE tests both axles of the test vehicle under the same imposed load; while at the same time providing for front-torear axle speed synchronization. Front-toback roller speed synchronization protects AWD center differentials, provides for a means to safely test vehicles with traction control, and allows for testing to performed under real-world load conditions. Without a transmission, an AWD dynamometer can only be used in steady state or ramp control mode - limiting its usefulness as a real-world testing tool.

AWD 500

With a maximum power measurement of 2,500 hp, the AWD-500-SE is designed to handle a broad range of performance tests, from truly high per-formance racecar testing to diagnostics and emissions repair on every day drivers.

The AWD-500-SE accommodates wheelbases from 88 to 118 inches without moving parts. A breakable coupling allows for a means to disengage the system from AWD mode. An optional air-clutch accomplishes the same feat with the push of a button.

The SE Model comes with a single Eddy Current Power Absorption Unit (PAU), but is completely upgradeable to the DE model, which provides for an additional PAU and a maximum load absorption increase in AWD Mode to 2,500 hp.
