Amatrol’s Alternator/Synchronous Motor Learning System (85-MT2C) adds to the Basic Electrical Machines Learning System (85-MT2) to teach skills related to alternators and synchronous motors commonly found in industrial applications. Alternators provide a mobile source of AC electrical power while synchronous motors reduce power costs by correcting the overall power factor in a plant. Learners will study industry-relevant skills in industrial motor training, including how to operate, install, and analyze the performance of alternators and synchronous motors.
The alternator and synchronous motor training system includes capacitive load, combination synchronous motor/alternator, and synchronizing lights/switch units. The capacitive load unit combines with the 85-MT2 to provide operation under various types of loads. In addition to industrial components, this training system includes in-depth curriculum, an instructor’s guide, and a student reference guide. The highly-interactive, multimedia curriculum covers major topical areas such as alternator output voltage and frequency, three dark synchronization method, and reversing a synchronous motor.
