OverviewHydra-Test transmission dynamometer system is a scalable, modular solution for controlled transmission testing and data acquisition. It integrates the HTC-S controller and HT-DCC Deluxe software to manage dyno operations, acquire test data and control transmission test sequences.
Product summaryThe Hydra-Dyno HD 400 is configurable for front-, rear- or all-wheel-drive automotive units, as well as larger on- or off-highway transmissions and high-volume fleet testing. The platform supports incremental scaling of motor and load unit capacity to match test requirements.
Key features- HTC-S controller for DAQ, dynamometer and transmission control.
- HT-DCC Deluxe control interface with advanced data collection and analysis options.
- Scalable architecture for FWD, RWD or AWD applications and larger on/off-highway units.
- Direct fitment with Axi-line mechanical adapters; adapter cables for Axi-line and Zoom test harnesses.
- Proven motor and load unit controls with ongoing controller and software development.
- Free software updates for 1 year from shipment.
Available configurations / Load & drive options- Drive capability configurable from 40 to 100 HP (40 HP base model; ~30 kW).
- Drive voltage options: 208 / 240 / 480 VAC.
- Variable electric brake load units available for RWD, FWD or AWD transmissions; load capacity scalable (base 500 lb-ft units).
CompatibilityMechanical adapters follow Axi-line dimensions and mounting; existing Axi-line master plates, spools and spacers directly fit Hydra-Dyno base fittings, simplifying integration with established test fixtures.
Model & base configuration notesBase configuration: 40 HP motor with 500 lb-ft load units. System is designed for straightforward upgrade to larger motor/load combinations depending on test scope.
