ELECTRIC POWER & CONTROLS


For over four decades, Lab-Volt has provided state-of-the-art<br />

systems for technician training in the basic and most advanced<br />

applications of electricity and electronics, fluid power, industrial<br />

controls, process control and instrumentation, mechatronics and<br />

telecommunications.<br />

Today, Lab-Volt’s highly effective approach to training and<br />

education has earned us the distinction as the leading North<br />

American producer of hands-on technical training systems. Key<br />

to our success has been our ability to anticipate the applications<br />

of new technologies and develop modular training systems that<br />

allow us to address the basic, as well as specialized, needs of<br />

industry and education. In our approach to training and education,<br />

we begin by carefully defining each new training need.<br />

Next, we methodically design and create the best curriculum,<br />

instrumentation, delivery method, management platform, and<br />

laboratory furniture and configuration to suit real-world training<br />

goals and the real needs of students and instructors. Lab-Volt<br />

training systems are carefully balanced to provide a solid theoretical<br />

grounding in the subject matter, along with numerous and<br />

diverse hands-on applications. By design, our first-quality,<br />

Building Training Systems<br />

for the Global Workplace<br />

industry-standard training systems are modular and open-ended<br />

so that students may enter or exit a program at many points. Lab-<br />

Volt training systems bring technical theory to life, teaching the<br />

latest technologies along with valuable troubleshooting, critical<br />

thinking, and reasoning skills.<br />

Lab-Volt maintains a staff of<br />

educators, instructional system<br />

designers, and engineers who are<br />

available to assist teachers, training<br />

directors, and administrators in<br />

designing program content, selecting<br />

or modifying equipment and<br />

software, and providing professional<br />

teacher training.<br />

In designing our laboratory<br />

equipment, we ensure compatibility<br />

with international power<br />

requirements that prevail throughout<br />

North America, Africa, Asia,<br />

Europe, the Middle East, South<br />

America, and Southeastern Asia.<br />

Whether at a high school or community<br />

commitment to high quality standards in product, design, development, production, installation, and service, our manufacturing<br />

and distribution facility has received the ISO 9001 certification.<br />

Lab-Volt is proud to continue the tradition of excellence that has become its international trademark.


Electromechanical Training Systems<br />

(EMS Series)<br />

Lab-Volt has developed a modular approach in the study of<br />

basic and advanced electric power technology. These systems,<br />

called EMS (Electromechanical Systems), contain many<br />

types of modules: loads, power supplies, transformers, measuring<br />

instruments, machines, etc. The modular approach<br />

allows the users to perform an unlimited number of setups.<br />

Lab-Volt offers four systems to learn electrical power technology.<br />

COMPUTER-ASSISTED 0.2-kW ELECTROMECHANICAL TRAINING<br />

SYSTEM<br />

To provide new opportunities for laboratory measurements<br />

and observations, Lab-Volt has developed the Computer-<br />

Assisted 0.2-kW Electromechanical Training System, Model<br />

8006. This system uses a data acquisition interface module,<br />

a computer, and a data acquisition and management software<br />

to measure, observe, and analyze electrical and mechanical<br />

parameters. The Data Acquisition and Management system<br />

(LVDAM-EMS) is specially developed by Lab-Volt to perform<br />

electrical measurements and observations in an educational<br />

context. This computer-based approach makes it possible to<br />

significantly decrease the time required by the students to<br />

perform the exercises and to produce laboratory<br />

reports. Moreover, this new approach allows students to<br />

integrate modern measuring instruments such as an 8-traces<br />

oscilloscope, phasor analyzer, harmonic analyzer, mechanical<br />

and VA power meters, which are not available in the 8001<br />

system.<br />

ELECTRIC POWER & CONTROLS<br />

0.2-kW ELECTROMECHANICAL TRAINING SYSTEM<br />

The 0.2-kW Electromechanical Training System, Model 8001,<br />

is a low-power educational system. The system allows the<br />

students to perform laboratory observations using pointer<br />

measuring instruments. With this type of measuring instruments,<br />

the students must read the data and manually transfer<br />

the results in data tables. Laboratory reports can then be<br />

produced manually or by using a personal computer.<br />

LVSIM ® -EMS SIMULATION SOFTWARE<br />

The exercises of the Computer-Assisted 0.2-kW<br />

Electromechanical Training System, Model 8006,<br />

can also be performed using the simulation software<br />

LVSIM-EMS developed by Lab-Volt. The<br />

LVSIM-EMS simulation software, Model 8970,<br />

integrates a 3D visual interface that provides<br />

faithful reproductions of all modules in the 8006<br />

system. Virtual modules are inserted into a virtual<br />

workstation by the students and interconnected<br />

using leads. Once a setup is completed, it is<br />

powered by a virtual power supply module, and<br />

the calculation engine, developed by Lab-Volt,<br />

determines the voltages, currents, speed, torque<br />

and all other parameters related to the modules<br />

in the setup. Since LVSIM-EMS includes the<br />

same computer-based instruments as in the<br />

Lab-Volt Data Acquisition and Management for<br />

Electromechanical Systems (LVDAM-EMS), students<br />

obtain the same results as those obtained<br />

with the actual equipment. Because the calculation engine operates in a continuous mode, students can immediately observe<br />

the effect of a parameter change in the equipment setup. Note that being familiar with the notions of conventional simulation<br />

software is not necessary for students to use the system.<br />

2-kW ELECTROMECHANICAL TRAINING SYSTEM<br />

For those who prefer to handle higher power<br />

machines, Lab-Volt offers the 2-kW<br />

Electromechanical Training System,<br />

Model 8013. This system is offered with<br />

pointer measuring instruments only.


0.2-kW Electromechanical Training System<br />

MODEL 8001<br />

The 0.2-kW Electromechanical Training System, Model 8001,<br />

was developed by educators to satisfy educational requirements<br />

that include industrial applications of electric power<br />

technology. The design objective was to develop a low-power<br />

educational system with equipment that operates like industrial<br />

equipment. Through careful attention to engineering<br />

detail, the Lab-Volt EMS System meets this objective, and in<br />

so doing, provides laboratory results that are easy to understand,<br />

with data values that are easily observed.<br />

The system’s modular approach allows new equipment<br />

to be added to existing EMS laboratories without needless<br />

duplication of equipment. There are two standard module<br />

sizes: full size, 308 mm (12.1 in) high, and half size, 154 mm<br />

(6.1 in) high. The modules are constructed of heavy-gauge<br />

steel, finished in baked enamel. Symbols and diagrams specific<br />

to each module are clearly silk-screened on the front<br />

panels. Standard, color-coded, 4-mm safety jacks are used to<br />

interconnect all system components.<br />

All machines have cutaway bell housings (front and rear)<br />

to permit visual inspection of the internal construction and<br />

observation of the machine during operation.<br />

The metering modules are designed to cover the complete<br />

range of required measurements with a minimum number of<br />

meters. The AC ammeter and voltmeter modules contain<br />

ELECTRIC POWER & CONTROLS<br />

three meters for simultaneously measuring all three currents<br />

and voltages in three-phase systems.<br />

Three-Phase Wound-Rotor Induction Motor<br />

All meters are designed to sustain starting currents even<br />

when used on a low range. Wattmeters are internally connected<br />

to read power directly when the input is connected<br />

to the source and the output to the load. Protection of vulnerable<br />

meter components is accomplished without fuses.<br />

ELECTRIC POWER & CONTROLS<br />

Data Acquisition and Management for Electromechanical Systems (LVDAM-EMS)<br />

MODEL 9062<br />

The Data Acquisition and Management for Electromechanical<br />

Systems (LVDAM-EMS), Model 9062, is a computer-based<br />

system for measuring, observing, and analyzing electrical and<br />

mechanical parameters in electric power systems and power<br />

electronics circuits. It allows training in various areas, such<br />

as electric power technology, AC/DC machines, and power<br />

electronics, using modern and versatile measuring instruments.<br />

The LVDAM-EMS system consists of a data acquisition<br />

interface (DAI) and the Lab-Volt software Data<br />

Acquisition and Management for Electromechanical<br />

Systems (LVDAM-EMS).<br />

Data Acquisition Interface<br />

The Data Acquisition Interface (DAI) consists of isolation and<br />

data acquisition units. The isolation unit converts high-level<br />

voltages and currents found in electric power systems and<br />

power electronics circuits into low-level signals, and routes<br />

these signals to the data acquisition unit. The data acquisition<br />

unit converts the low-level signals into digital numbers (data)<br />

that are sent to the personal computer that runs the LVDAM-<br />

EMS software.<br />

Interconnection between the DAI module and the computer<br />

is made through a supplied standard USB cable.<br />

The DAI module has isolated voltage and current inputs<br />

fitted with 4-mm banana safety jacks, which can be connected<br />

to AC or DC power circuits. Low-level inputs for<br />

torque and speed measurement can be connected to the<br />

Prime Mover / Dynamometer, Model 8960, which provides<br />

output signals proportional to torque and speed.<br />

Eight software-programmable, low-level, auxiliary analog<br />

inputs allow measurement of additional circuit parameters.<br />

Two analog outputs, also software-programmable, allow<br />

direct control of the Prime Mover / Dynamometer, or of the<br />

<strong>Power</strong> Electronics modules to which they are connected.<br />

LVDAM-EMS Software<br />

The LVDAM-EMS software consists of a set of conventional<br />

and specialized instruments that run on an IBM ® -compatible<br />

personal computer under the Microsoft<br />

® Windows ® operating<br />

environment. Each instrument appears as a window on the<br />

computer screen. The conventional instruments include<br />

AC/DC voltmeters and ammeters, power meters, and an<br />

eight-channel oscilloscope. The specialized instruments<br />

include a six-channel phasor analyzer, a harmonic analyzer,<br />

11


a spectrum analyzer, torque, speed, and mechanical power<br />

meters, and six user-programmable meters. The LVDAM-EMS<br />

software is also equipped with data-recording and graphplotting<br />

facilities. The various instruments are briefly described<br />

in the next section.<br />

Metering<br />

The Metering window can include up to eighteen meters,<br />

which can be configured for measuring voltage and current,<br />

electrical power (active, reactive, and apparent), torque,<br />

speed, mechanical power, etc. The voltage and current meters<br />

have several modes of operation that allow measurement of<br />

the mean (DC) value, Root Mean Square (RMS) value, crest<br />

factor, RMS value of a particular harmonic (up to the 15 th ),<br />

RMS value of the harmonics, and total harmonic distortion<br />

(THD). Six of the 18 meters are user-programmable for access<br />

to a larger variety of functions, allowing measurement of:<br />

power factor, efficiency, impedance, frequency, energy, phase<br />

shift, etc. The arrangement (layout) of the meters in the<br />

Metering window can be customized by the user.<br />

Data Table and Graph<br />

The values displayed by the various meters in the Metering<br />

window as well as values measured by the other instruments<br />

in LVDAM-EMS can be recorded in the Data Table window<br />

with a click of the mouse. The values recorded in the Data<br />

Table can be saved to a file (ASCII-formatted file). The recorded<br />

data also can be used to plot graphs by selecting<br />

which parameter(s) to plot in the Graph window. This allows<br />

lab results to be plotted quickly and easily. More sophisticated<br />

graphs can be created by exporting the contents of the Data<br />

Table window to any popular spreadsheet program, such as<br />

Microsoft ® Excel ® , directly through the Windows ® Clipboard.<br />

12<br />

Oscilloscope<br />

The Oscilloscope can display up to eight waveforms<br />

simultaneously. The waveforms are displayed using different<br />

colors to simplify identification. Each channel has independent<br />

vertical controls similar to those found on conventional<br />

oscilloscopes. An automatic scale-setting function allows<br />

the sensitivity of each channel to be set automatically according<br />

to the magnitude of the observed parameter. The time<br />

base and trigger controls are similar to those found on most<br />

oscilloscopes to simplify adjustment. The RMS value, average<br />

value, and frequency of each of the observed parameters can<br />

be displayed in a table in the Oscilloscope window. Two<br />

vertical cursors can be activated to perform precise measurements<br />

at particular points on the displayed waveforms. The<br />

Oscilloscope has two memories for saving the displayed<br />

waveforms.


Phasor Analyzer<br />

The innovative Phasor Analyzer allows students to analyze<br />

AC power circuits with the phasors related to voltages and<br />

currents instead of the values and waveforms of these voltages<br />

and currents. Circuit voltages and currents can be<br />

monitored easily for relative amplitudes and phase differences<br />

simply by looking at their respective phasors on the Phasor<br />

Analyzer display. This produces a unique and dynamic display<br />

of the voltages and currents in a circuit, especially in threephase<br />

circuits, that cannot be obtained with conventional<br />

instruments. The RMS value, phase angle, and frequency of<br />

the voltage or current related to each phasor is displayed in<br />

a table in the Phasor Analyzer window.<br />

Spectrum Analyzer<br />

The Spectrum Analyzer allows frequency-domain observation<br />

and analysis of voltages and currents. It is a frequency-selective<br />

instrument that measures the level of the frequency<br />

components in the selected voltage or current, and displays<br />

the results on a graduated screen. The vertical scale of the<br />

screen can be either linear or logarithmic. The center frequency<br />

is set manually or using the Seek function which<br />

searches for the next frequency component in the observed<br />

spectrum. Various frequency spans can be selected to display<br />

the observed frequency spectrum. Vertical and horizontal<br />

cursors can be activated to perform precise measurements at<br />

particular points on the frequency spectrum displayed on the<br />

graduated screen. The Spectrum Analyzer has two memories<br />

for saving frequency spectra.<br />

Harmonic Analyzer<br />

ELECTRIC POWER & CONTROLS<br />

The Harmonic Analyzer allows observation and analysis of the<br />

harmonic components in voltages and currents. The fundamental<br />

frequency can be set to the AC power network<br />

frequency, set manually by the user, or set automatically to<br />

the frequency of the fundamental component of the selected<br />

voltage or current. The number of harmonic components<br />

displayed can be varied between 5 and 40. The harmonic<br />

components of the selected voltage or current can be displayed<br />

using a vertical scale graduated in either absolute or<br />

relative values. Various vertical scale settings are available.<br />

A group of data displays in the Harmonic Analyzer indicates<br />

the values of the DC component, fundamental component,<br />

and harmonic components of the selected voltage or current,<br />

as well as the total harmonic distortion (THD). Vertical and<br />

horizontal cursors can be activated to perform precise measurements<br />

at particular points on the display.<br />

Electromechanical Systems Simulation Software (LVSIM ® -EMS)<br />

MODEL 8970<br />

The Lab-Volt Electromechanical Systems Simulation Software<br />

(LVSIM ® -EMS), Model 8970, is a Windows ® -based software<br />

that covers the same course work as the Computer-Assisted<br />

0.2-kW Electromechanical Training System, Model 8006.<br />

LVSIM ® -EMS recreates a three-dimensional classroom laboratory<br />

on a computer screen. Using the mouse, students can<br />

install an EMS training system in this virtual laboratory, set<br />

up equipment, and perform exercises in the same way as if<br />

actual EMS equipment were used.<br />

The EMS equipment that can be installed in the virtual<br />

laboratory faithfully reproduces the actual EMS equipment<br />

included in the Computer-Assisted 0.2-kW Electromechanical<br />

Training System (Model 8006).<br />

Sophisticated mathematical models fully simulate the<br />

electrical and mechanical characteristics of all the actual EMS<br />

modules: power supply, motors, generators, transformers, and<br />

electrical and mechanical loads. All modules contained in the<br />

LVSIM-EMS software feature the same front panel information<br />

as the actual EMS modules. Short-circuit connections, in the<br />

virtual equipment setup, cause the virtual circuit-breaker<br />

protection to trip as on the actual EMS modules.<br />

Used either as a complement to the actual EMS laboratory<br />

equipment or as a stand-alone product, LVSIM-EMS is a costeffective<br />

learning tool that enables students to perform the<br />

same exercises as in the Computer-Assisted 0.2-kW Electromechanical<br />

Training System, Model 8006, courseware.<br />

As a stand-alone package, the LVSIM-EMS software<br />

program provides hands-on activities to familiarize students<br />

with electrical power and machines, including active, reactive<br />

and apparent power, phasors, AC/DC motors and generators,<br />

three-phase circuits, and transformers.<br />

The LVSIM-EMS virtual equipment is so representative<br />

of the actual EMS laboratory equipment that by using it, the<br />

students can develop hands-on abilities as they would with<br />

actual equipment. By combining stations using virtual equipment<br />

with stations using actual equipment, the students can<br />

use each type alternately. This approach allows the establishment<br />

of a virtual/actual station ratio that corresponds to your<br />

budget while maintaining a training program of very high<br />

quality in power technology.<br />

Lab-Volt authorizes students to copy the software onto<br />

their personal computers to prepare their lab setups in advance.<br />

With this free copy of the software, students do not<br />

have access to measuring functions. However, they can<br />

determine the equipment connections associated with the<br />

schematic diagrams shown in the exercises. They can also<br />

check if the circuit is working, save the equipment setup on<br />

a floppy disk or any other data storage media, and print the<br />

equipment setup. This preparation will significantly reduce<br />

the time required to perform the exercises in the laboratory,<br />

and will result in the need for less physical hardware per<br />

student.


2-kW Electromechanical Training System<br />

MODEL 8013<br />

The 2-kW Electromechanical Training System, Model 8013,<br />

is a modular program in electric power technology. The<br />

system consists of several modules, which can be grouped<br />

to form three subsystems dealing with the different techniques<br />

associated with the generation and use of electrical<br />

energy.<br />

All modules can be inserted into a standard Mobile<br />

Workstation, Model 8110. The modules are constructed from<br />

heavy-gauge steel, finished in baked enamel. Symbols and<br />

diagrams specific to each module are clearly silk-screened on<br />

the front panel. Standard color-coded safety jacks are used to<br />

interconnect all system components.<br />

Each 2-kW machine is permanently mounted on a mobile<br />

cart, and includes a double-extension shaft ended with<br />

geared-type flanges. Different machines may be joined with<br />

a hard rubber coupling device and patented locking fasteners<br />

designed to eliminate vibrations. Any combination of machines<br />

may be studied simultaneously.<br />

ELECTRIC POWER & CONTROLS<br />

The machines have a high inertia to simulate high-power<br />

machines. The frame of the machines is equipped with transparent<br />

shatterproof shields for inspection of the interior.<br />

In addition, all machines are equipped with search coils<br />

through which the magnetic flux distribution, at various<br />

locations in the machine, can be observed on an oscilloscope.<br />

All machine windings are brought out to the faceplate of<br />

a connection module through a heavy-duty, interconnecting<br />

cable fitted with a keyed connector: therefore, a particular<br />

machine can only be connected to its associated connection<br />

module. All windings are individually accessible on the faceplate<br />

of the connection module associated with that machine.<br />

<strong>Power</strong> windings are ended on 4-mm color-coded safety<br />

banana jacks and search coils on 2-mm banana jacks. The<br />

different size jacks prevent accidental connections between<br />

power windings and search coils.<br />

15


The metering modules are designed to cover the complete<br />

range of measurements required with a minimum number of<br />

meters. The AC ammeter and voltmeter modules contain<br />

three meters each for simultaneously measuring all three<br />

currents and voltages in three-phase systems. All meters are<br />

designed to sustain starting currents even when used on a<br />

low range. Wattmeters are internally connected to read power<br />

directly when the input is connected to the source and the<br />

output to the load.<br />

Electromechanical Systems Computer-Based Learning (EMS-CBL)<br />

MODEL 8980<br />

The Electromechanical Systems Computer-Based Learning<br />

(EMS-CBL) program, Model 8980, is a modern instructional<br />

tool that runs under the Lab-Volt platform Tech-Lab System<br />

and Utilities. It makes learning the principles of electric power<br />

technology faster, easier, and more enjoyable than the more<br />

traditional, manual method.<br />

The EMS-CBL program consists of complete courses in<br />

electric power technology delivered on a CD-ROM. It is<br />

designed for use with the Computer-Assisted 0.2-kW Electromechanical<br />

Training System, Model 8006, or the Electromechanical<br />

Systems Simulation Software (LVSIM ® -EMS),<br />

Model 8970.<br />

Using the EMS-CBL program with LVSIM-EMS, students<br />

can follow a complete course in electric power technology at<br />

home, using their own computers and learning at their own<br />

pace. Throughout the course, students are prompted to<br />

answer questions to verify their understanding of the subject<br />

matter. Incorrect answers are rejected, feedback is given, and<br />

students are prompted to answer again until they give the<br />

correct answer.<br />

ELECTRIC POWER & CONTROLS<br />

This efficient self-guided method greatly reduces the time<br />

instructors must spend on assessing students progress while<br />

increasing the time they can spend helping students who<br />

experience difficulties with the course material.<br />

Instructors can assess students' knowledge by administering<br />

periodic hands-on exams that require students to<br />

demonstrate their knowledge on actual EMS laboratory<br />

equipment. This efficient approach to learning and instruction<br />

allows schools to offer remote courses, an educational trend<br />

that is gaining increasing acceptance throughout the world.<br />

FEATURES<br />

P Computer-based program makes learning faster and easier,<br />

and allows students to progress at their own pace.<br />

P Complete course prompts students to answer questions<br />

to verify their understanding of the course material.<br />

P More than 600 highly detailed color figures and animations<br />

clearly illustrate concepts and hands-on exercise procedures.<br />

8631, 8641, 8651, 8653, 8661, 8671, 8731<br />

Linear Motor, Model 8228<br />

The Linear Motor, Model 8228, is a useful teaching tool for<br />

instructors who wish to demonstrate the basic principles of<br />

magnetism as applied to the operation of linear induction<br />

motors. It can also be used by students for determining basic<br />

electrical characteristics of a linear induction motor and<br />

studying the dynamic behavior (tractive force, acceleration,<br />

top speed) of a linear induction motor. The simple construction<br />

of the Linear Motor also allows students to apply their<br />

theoretical knowledge of electromagnetism.<br />

The Linear Motor consists of a moveable vehicle and a<br />

stationary rail. The moveable vehicle, which is mounted on<br />

four bearing rollers, contains what is usually called the stator<br />

of a conventional induction motor. The stationary rail is<br />

referred to as the rotor in a conventional induction motor. At<br />

both ends of the stationary rail, a cushioned shock absorber<br />

and a lever mechanically coupled to a DPDT switch (mounted<br />

under the stationary rail) allow the direction of motion of the<br />

moveable vehicle to be changed. This is done by reversing the<br />

phase sequence of the voltages applied to the motor windings,<br />

allowing the moveable vehicle to go back and forth over<br />

the rail continuously when power is applied to the motor.<br />

Two-Phase Wound-Rotor Induction Motor, Model 8233<br />

Each phase of the stator windings of the Two-Phase Wound-<br />

Rotor Induction Motor, Model 8233, is independently terminated<br />

and identified on the faceplate to permit operation with<br />

a two-phase electric power source. The rotor windings are<br />

brought out to the faceplate via external slip rings and<br />

brushes.<br />

This machine can be used as a wound-rotor induction<br />

motor, phase shifter, single-phase variable coupling transformer,<br />

two-phase transformer, selsyn control, frequency<br />

converter or asynchronous induction generator.<br />

19


Schrage Motor, Model 8234<br />

The Schrage Motor, Model 8234, is a variable-speed<br />

polyphase AC motor with both high torque and efficiency.<br />

The motor is basically a special wound-rotor motor in<br />

which a built-in variable-frequency source is connected to one<br />

winding, while the network frequency is applied to the other<br />

winding. The voltage of the variable frequency source can be<br />

set over a certain range and the resulting speed of the motor<br />

depends upon this setting.<br />

Three-Phase Brushless AC Generator, Model 8243<br />

The Three-Phase Brushless AC Generator, Model 8243, is a<br />

synchronous generator without its conventional brush-gear<br />

for field excitation. It comprises an AC power generator and<br />

an exciter, which can be set in one of two modes: separately<br />

excited (PILOT) or self-excited (AUTO). The exciter voltage<br />

20<br />

is adjustable in both modes using a rheostat control on the<br />

module faceplate.<br />

A shaft-mounted rectifier assembly interconnects the<br />

exciter and generator rotors. Connections of these devices<br />

have been brought out to the faceplate through externally<br />

mounted slip rings and brushes.<br />

Each phase of the stator windings is independently<br />

terminated to permit operation in either delta or star (wye)<br />

configuration.<br />

Motor Winding Kit<br />

MODEL 8022<br />

The Motor Winding Kit, Model 8022, offers a new approach<br />

to teaching construction techniques for electrical machines.<br />

Starting with such basic components as laminations, motor<br />

ends, and magnet wire, the Motor Winding Kit permits the<br />

construction of a squirrel-cage induction motor, wound-rotor<br />

induction motor, three-phase synchronous machine, and splitphase<br />

capacitor-start motor.<br />

All parts necessary for assembly and construction of the<br />

four machines are included in the kit. Two types of stator<br />

laminations are included for winding a three-phase stator and<br />

a single-phase stator.<br />

Three types of rotors are included in the kit: a squirrelcage<br />

rotor (completely assembled), a rotor with open-slot<br />

laminations allowing winding of a wound rotor by the student,<br />

and a rotor with cruciform laminations and a damper assembly,<br />

allowing winding of a four-pole synchronous machine<br />

rotor by the student.<br />

Once the machine is mounted on the support module, it<br />

can be inserted into a Lab-Volt EMS Workstation and coupled<br />

to a prime mover or a dynamometer to check its electrical<br />

specifications and confirm that it is wound properly. A com-<br />

pleted machine can be used to perform exercises in the EMS<br />

student manual.<br />

When the characteristics of the machine have been<br />

verified, the windings are removed from the slots to salvage<br />

the stator and rotor laminations for the next student.<br />

<strong>Power</strong> Electronics and Drives<br />

THYRISTOR SPEED CONTROLLER AND VECTOR-CONTROL DRIVE CONVERTER MODULES<br />

<strong>Power</strong> electronics and motor drives occupy a significant place<br />

in the Lab-Volt product line. To provide a basic knowledge of<br />

power electronics and motor drives, Lab-Volt offers the following<br />

two training modules:<br />

The Thyristor Speed Controller, Model 9017, which allows<br />

control of a DC motor by using an AC-to-DC converter made<br />

of a thyristor single-phase half-bridge rectifier. This module<br />

is included in the 0.2-kW Electromechanical Training System,<br />

Model 8001. It is optional in the Computer-Assisted 0.2-kW<br />

Electromechanical Training System, Model 8006.<br />

The Vector-Control Drive Converter, Model 9013, which<br />

enables control of a three-phase induction motor by using an<br />

AC-to-DC converter made of a diode three-phase bridge<br />

rectifier, and an IGBT inverter that converts DC to AC. This<br />

module is an excellent addition to the Computer-Assisted<br />

0.2-kW Electromechanical Training System, Model 8006,<br />

because it makes it possible to study power electronics with<br />

a minimum of equipment.<br />

24<br />

Vector-Control Drive Converter Module<br />

POWER ELECTRONICS TRAINING SYSTEM<br />

For a more comprehensive study in power electronics, Lab-Volt offers the <strong>Power</strong><br />

Electronics Training System, Model 8032. This entirely modular system allows<br />

for complete comprehension of most power electronics circuits through the use<br />

of self-commutated and line-commutated converters. The system courseware<br />

consists of ten manuals (43 exercises).<br />

POWER ELECTRONICS SIMULATION SOFTWARE (PESIM)<br />

Many exercises in power electronics can also be performed using the <strong>Power</strong> Electronics<br />

Simulation Software (PESIM), Model 8971. This software also allows the simulation of<br />

power electronics circuits that cannot be implemented with the actual Lab-Volt equipment.<br />

DC VARIABLE SPEED DRIVE AND AC VARIABLE SPEED DRIVE<br />

Lab-Volt offers two other optional motor drive modules: the DC Variable Speed Drive, Model<br />

3250, and the AC Variable Speed Drive, Model 3260. Each module is an industrial drive<br />

mounted to a table-top chassis. Models 3250 and 3260 can be used with any one of the<br />

following three training systems: 0.2-kW Electromechanical Training System, Model 8001,<br />

Computer-Assisted 0.2-kW Electromechanical Training System, Model 8006, and Industrial<br />

<strong>Controls</strong> Training System, Model 8036.


0.2-kW <strong>Power</strong> Electronics Training System<br />

MODEL 8032<br />

The 0.2-kW <strong>Power</strong> Electronics Training System, Model 8032,<br />

is a versatile and flexible teaching system, covering many<br />

topics that can be included in any power electronics program.<br />

The 0.2-kW <strong>Power</strong> Electronics Training System uses the<br />

same modular approach as the Lab-Volt EMS Training Systems,<br />

Models 8001 and 8006. It even shares several modules<br />

with these systems. The modular design allows experiments<br />

other than those suggested in the courseware to be performed.<br />

Although the modules operate like industrial equipment,<br />

they are designed to satisfy the special needs of students. The<br />

equipment is easy to set up and operate. Because all of the<br />

important circuit points are readily accessible through frontpanel<br />

safety banana jacks, the interconnection between<br />

modules is simple and straightforward. Special attention has<br />

been given to the circuit protection provided in all modules,<br />

thus making it possible to perform many experiments with<br />

virtually no risk to equipment.<br />

Voltage and current isolators allow students to observe,<br />

on an oscilloscope (to be purchased separately), the high-level<br />

voltage and current waveforms found in power electronics<br />

circuits. The use of isolators allows the voltages and currents<br />

to be handled without risk of an electric shock, a short circuit,<br />

or equipment damage. Conventional voltmeters, ammeters,<br />

power meters, a tachometer, and an electrodynamometer are<br />

ELECTRIC POWER & CONTROLS<br />

provided for the measurement of electrical and mechanical<br />

parameters in power electronics circuits.<br />

As a highly modular, flexible, open-ended system, the<br />

0.2-kW <strong>Power</strong> Electronics Training System lends itself well<br />

to a wide variety of sophisticated applications not covered in<br />

the courseware. As a result, the equipment also can be used<br />

for comprehensive research work, allowing complex power<br />

electronics systems to be set up easily and in a relatively short<br />

time.<br />

The system courseware consists of a nine-volume educational<br />

program plus an equipment familiarization guide. The<br />

educational program is divided into two separate subjects<br />

covering line-commutated and self-commutated converters,<br />

which respectively use power thyristors (SCRs) and power<br />

IGBTs or power MOSFETs.<br />

The conventional voltmeters, ammeters, power meters,<br />

oscilloscope, and electrodynamometer used in the 0.2-kW<br />

<strong>Power</strong> Electronics Training System can be replaced with the<br />

Lab-Volt Data Acquisition and Management for Electromechanical<br />

Systems (LVDAM-EMS), Model 9062, and the Prime<br />

Mover / Dynamometer, Model 8960. This provides a complete<br />

set of versatile computer-based instruments that opens new<br />

opportunities for laboratory measurement, observation, and<br />

analysis.<br />

Thyristor Speed Controller<br />

MODEL 9017<br />

The Thyristor Speed Controller, Model 9017, is designed to<br />

control the speed of the DC Motor/Generator, Model 8211, in<br />

both the open-loop and closed-loop modes of control. It is<br />

included in the 0.2-kW Electromechanical Training System,<br />

Model 8001, and optional in the Computer-Assisted 0.2-kW<br />

Electromechanical Training System, Model 8006.<br />

The Thyristor Speed Controller contains a thyristor singlephase<br />

half-bridge rectifier installed in a full-height EMS module.<br />

Speed control of the DC motor is achieved by varying the firing<br />

angle of the thyristors. In the open-loop mode of control, the<br />

firing angle is set manually using a potentiometer. While in the<br />

closed-loop mode, it is set by a controller, which compares the<br />

motor armature voltage to a voltage reference set by the user.<br />

The mode of control is selectable using a toggle switch.<br />

Other characteristics that can be controlled using the Thyristor<br />

Speed Controller include ramp control, IR compensation,<br />

and current limitation. These controls are accessible directly on<br />

the faceplate of the module.<br />

Schematic symbols and their electrical interconnections are<br />

silk-screened on the faceplate of the module. Where student<br />

access is required, the components have been terminated by<br />

4-mm color-coded safety jacks.<br />

The Thyristor Speed Controller is similar to an industrial DC<br />

drive with protections against misconnections. Its operation is<br />

the same as the industrial drive included in the DC Variable<br />

Speed Drive, Model 3250 1 .<br />

Using the Thyristor Speed Controller in conjunction with the<br />

Computer-Assisted 0.2-kW Electromechanical Training System,<br />

Model 8006, provides students with a basic introduction to<br />

power electronics.<br />

Vector-Control Drive Converter<br />

MODEL 9013<br />

The Vector-Control Drive Converter, Model 9013, is a flux vectorcontrol<br />

inverter. It is the ultimate industrial AC motor drive,<br />

packaged and protected for rugged educational use. This compact<br />

drive features four control methods, which students can<br />

select through an alphanumeric digital operator: Open-Loop<br />

Volts per Hertz, Closed-Loop Volts per Hertz, Open-Loop Flux<br />

Vector, and Closed-Loop Flux Vector.<br />

The three-phase input and output, as well as the DC bus<br />

of the Vector-Control Drive Converter, are accessible through<br />

4-mm safety banana jacks fitted on the front panel of the module.<br />

Each phase of the three-phase input and output is individually<br />

protected by a quick-acting circuit breaker.<br />

Seven protected test points allow the user to observe the<br />

control signals of the Insulated-Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT)<br />

used to implement the inverter. The output currents of the IGBT<br />

inverter can be observed from three current sensors accessible<br />

through 2-mm banana jacks.<br />

The Vector-Control Drive Converter also includes a DC<br />

smoothing inductor and a braking resistor. Three output line<br />

inductors, not shown on the front panel, protect the motor<br />

windings and improve signal waveforms by preventing voltage<br />

transients.<br />

The Vector-Control Drive Converter is supplied with an<br />

alphanumeric digital operator, an RS-232 serial interface cable,<br />

software for entering and reading drive parameter values, a<br />

student manual, and an instructor guide.<br />

Adding the Vector-Control Drive Converter to the<br />

Computer-Assisted 0.2-kW Electromechanical Training System,<br />

Model 8006, is an excellent choice for those who wish to extend<br />

the teaching of basic electric power technology to power electronics.<br />

The Industrial <strong>Controls</strong> Training System, Model 8036, is a<br />

multilevel system that provides training in the operation and<br />

troubleshooting of conventional, electronic, and programmable<br />

industrial controls. Level 1 covers basic industrial controls<br />

as well as electromechanical and electronic starters for AC<br />

induction motors. Three other levels can be added to Level 1<br />

to cover programmable logic controller (PLC) control circuits,<br />

AC and DC motor drives, as well as mechanical and electronic<br />

sensors.<br />

The system allows students to select and interconnect<br />

control devices to form a large variety of industrial control<br />

circuits, and troubleshoot them once a fault is inserted by the<br />

instructor. All connections are made using flexible<br />

PVC-insulated connecting leads terminated with 4-mm safety<br />

banana plugs. These leads allow safe connections of components,<br />

since the live parts of their plugs are concealed and<br />

insulated so they cannot be contacted accidentally.<br />

System shown with optional equipment<br />

All training modules consist of actual industrial devices. Most training modules are<br />

provided with faults that can be inserted through switches mounted behind the module<br />

front panel. The faults have been carefully selected to properly reflect typical faulty<br />

situations commonly encountered in the field.<br />

The Industrial <strong>Controls</strong> Training System is autonomous and does not require any<br />

external equipment. However, the modules of the Industrial <strong>Controls</strong>Training System<br />

can be interconnected with those of other Lab-Volt training systems for interdisciplinary<br />

training applications.<br />

Other Lab-Volt industrial control training modules can be added to the Industrial <strong>Controls</strong> Training System to cover<br />

conventional (electromechanical) starters for two-speed AC induction motors, wound-rotor induction motors, synchronous motors,<br />

and DC motors.

Control of Industrial Motors Training System<br />

MODEL 8045<br />

The Control of Industrial Motors Training System is a complete instructional program that trains students in the concepts and<br />

applications of conventional (electromechanical) motor control through the use of block, wiring, and schematic diagrams. It<br />

is the perfect add-on to the 8001 EMS Training System for those who wish to extend the teaching of electromechanical systems<br />

to the control of industrial motors. Mechanical and electrical assembly of electromechanical control circuits is accomplished<br />

in the 8001 EMS Training System<br />

environment without the<br />

use of hand tools.<br />

All electromechanical control<br />

components have a patented<br />

metal extrusion which<br />

securely locks them into the<br />

desired position along a snap<br />

-track on two mounting modules.<br />

These modules, which are<br />

designed to be installed in the<br />

EMS Training System workstation,<br />

are provided with two<br />

sections of snap-track each.<br />

The student manual, included<br />

with the training system, guides students through a large variety of electromechanical control circuits, beginning with<br />

simple concepts and expanding them until the full sophistication of industrial motor control is reached. Students gain first-hand<br />

knowledge of the reasons why certain practices are followed, as well as how circuits operate. The manual is complete with a<br />

Glossary of terms containing the current NEMA, IEC, ANSI, and IEEE official definitions of electrical terms.<br />

FACET ® - <strong>Power</strong> Transistors and GTO Thyristor<br />

MODEL 91026<br />

The <strong>Power</strong> Transistors and GTO Thyristor training module,<br />

Model 91026, enables students to perform practical exercises<br />

that demonstrate the use of different types of power electronic<br />

self-commutated switches. The module contains six different<br />

types of power electronic self-commutated switches respectively<br />

implemented with a MOSFET, an isolated-gate bipolar<br />

transistor (IGBT), a fast IGBT, a bipolar transistor, a Darlington<br />

transistor, and a GTO thyristor. It also contains Driver and<br />

Load sections that help students to study the various<br />

switches. The Driver consists of an opto-isolator and a driver<br />

for power transistors. The Load consists of resistive and<br />

inductive components, as well as general-purpose, fast, and<br />

ultra-fast free-wheeling diodes.<br />

Using these power electronic switches, students learn the<br />

operation of power transistors and GTO thyristors, as well as<br />

how to test their junctions. They observe switching characteristics,<br />

conduction voltage drop, and losses of power electronic<br />

switches. Students also learn how to match free-wheeling<br />

diodes with the various types of power electronic switches.<br />

This module enables students to know which device<br />

should be used in a particular application according to the<br />

power levels and switching frequency. The GTO Thyristor<br />

integrated in this circuit block finally makes it possible to<br />

study GTO’s at a small scale, even at very low power levels.<br />

With the F.A.C.E.T. fault-insertion training system, students<br />

develop troubleshooting capabilities for all circuits included<br />

in the module, as well as for the switching components.<br />

Synchro-Servo Training System<br />

MODEL 8060<br />

The Synchro-Servo Training System, Model 8060, provides a<br />

basic understanding of operational theory, as well as the<br />

ability to analyze, troubleshoot, and demonstrate open- and<br />

closed-loop synchro-servo systems. System interconnections,<br />

operating signal states, trouble symptoms, and zeroing errors<br />

are easily conveyed and identified through the front-panel<br />

interconnection jacks and stacking leads. The front panels are<br />

clearly silk-screened with standard electrical and servomechanism<br />

symbols, representing each module's function.<br />

The Synchro-Servo Training System is primarily an analog<br />

positional control device. It operates on low voltages from the<br />

power supply, which is built into the system enclosure. The<br />

control modules are automatically energized when they are<br />

inserted into the enclosure. Solid state amplifier modules<br />

provide signal amplification, phase shift, and power gain<br />

typically required in practical systems.<br />

Both control modules and synchro-servo modules have<br />

fault-insertion capabilities that introduce common system or<br />

component malfunctions.<br />
