PTO shaft/engine output test bench HD 600  

The DLG Test Center's HORIBA SCHENCK HD 600 output test bench is an asynchronous machine that can be used as both a brake and a drive. It can be used to reliably determine the output and consumption parameters of the units under test.

To measure consumption on the PTO shaft test bench, loads are applied to the PTO shaft while the tractor is running at full load in order to obtain seven predefined engine speeds and engine torques. The specific diesel consumption in g/kWh is determined at the respective engine speed under full and partial load.

Fuel and AdBlue consumption measurement

We are able to measure the specific fuel and AdBlue consumption of tractors with up to 700 kW (1,000 hp) on the modern DLG chassis dynamometer.
