    Test bench for measuring torque, rpm, volt and current.

    Well, this is my very own discussion? I've started the thread because I have some questions about building a testbench. The question about differential probes is related to my testbench.

    Test bench for measuring torque, rpm, volt and current.

    Thanks for the answers! I'm quite new in the world of power electronics, so I was wondering what the difference between a "normal" voltmeter and a differential probe is?

    Test bench for measuring torque, rpm, volt and current.

    You were right, thanks! Another question: I'm going to measure te voltage going from te VFD to the motor. Since te voltage doesn't have a perfect sinus-shape, I have to use true RMS to get the right measurment. I'm familiar with RMS, but how do I measure true RMS? I've read something about...

    Sorry, forgot that PLS is called PLC in english.

    Test bench for measuring torque, rpm, volt and current.

    Thanks for all the great tips! I think I'll just stick with the existing load cell, and use the 4-16mA signal. Another question, what is the actually the difference between PLS and DAQ? I know that the DAQ is much faster, but there must be other differences?

    Test bench for measuring torque, rpm, volt and current.

    I could use the old loadcell setup, and input the measurment to a DAQ, but I really would like to calculate the torqe without it.

    Test bench for measuring torque, rpm, volt and current.

    I forgot to say that I'm modifying an old test bench, which is built just like you decribed, with a loadcell to measure torque. The old bench is analog, and I want to convert it to digital, so that I can get the parameters on a touchscreen. The touchscreen will also be connected to a VFD so...

    Test bench for measuring torque, rpm, volt and current.

    Hi everybody! First of all I have to excuse my english, but I hope everybody can understand me. I'm building a test bench for AC motors, where the AC motor will be connected to a DC motor(will be running as an generator) with an adjustable load connected. I've been trying to find a formula for...
