05 / Your measurements

The right dynamometer.
For your everyday work.

A dynamometer becomes part of your working routine. Your vehicles, required load conditions and available space should guide the decision.

Document performance clearly

A peak figure tells only part of the story. The curve and the conditions of the measurement matter too. Plan vehicle preparation, cooling and documentation as one consistent process.

Examine behaviour under load

Inertia runs and controlled load measurements answer different questions. Braked DYNOmax models add load-testing capabilities. Choose according to your regular measurements and the applicable operating limits.

Plan the complete installation

The platform needs space for vehicle access, overhang, cooling, exhaust extraction and safe operation. A room sketch and typical vehicle examples are useful starting points. Our planning guide explains what to prepare.

Before buying a chassis dyno

Which dynamometer suits my workshop?

Start with the vehicle type and drivetrain, then compare test methods, operating limits and space requirements. Power runs and controlled load tests call for different capabilities. The highest power rating alone is not enough to select a dyno.

What is the difference between an inertia dyno and a braked dyno?

An inertia dyno calculates power from roller acceleration. A braked dyno can also apply a controlled load. Available load points, test duration and procedures depend on the model and configuration.

Can any 4WD dyno test any AWD vehicle?

No. The vehicle controls, drivetrain and test method must be compatible with the dyno. The type of axle synchronisation matters too. Provide specific vehicles and intended tests so the proposed configuration can be assessed.

What should a dyno budget include?

Allow for the chosen equipment and preparation of the test area as well as the dyno itself. Clarify transport, unloading, positioning, installation and operator training. A quotation should clearly identify included equipment, services and costs.

How much room does a chassis dyno need?

The platform footprint is only part of the requirement. Allow space for the vehicle, access, restraint, cooling, exhaust extraction, operation and maintenance. A drawing with room dimensions, doors and utilities is a useful starting point.

Can I enquire about a project elsewhere in Europe?

Include the installation or delivery country in your enquiry. This allows delivery arrangements, technical requirements and responsibilities to be clarified for the location. Submitting an enquiry does not place an order.
