60-070 SMC

The 60-070-SMC consists of a Three Phase Synchronous Machine & Synchronising Module. The Three Phase Synchronous Machine can be used as a Motor or a Generator. Starting requirements, synchronisation, load and no-load characteristics and its use as a synchronous capacitor are some of the topics covered. In addition the Synchronising Module shows how the Three Phase generator can be synchronised to the existing power supply. The versatility of the 60-070 system allows sophisticated experiments to be performed, such as, running the machine up to synchronous speed, synchronising as a generator, changing the synchronous mode to a motor and studying the characteristics and pull-out torque.
