RS-8K Towing Dynamometer

RS-8K

DynoMotive is proud to introduce the RS-8K Towing Dynamometer. The RS-8K towing dynamometer uses an eddy current absorber built with special high temperature coils to absorb energy. The towing dynamometer is powered by an industrial generator instead of batteries. Therefore, there are no leaky batteries to charge and testing time is unlimited at low speeds.

Designed for today’s mid-sized cars and SUVs, the RS-8K towing dynamometer is built with an all aluminum frame, an aerodynamic body and it operates on an independent, air ride suspension. Contact Taylor Dynamometer/DynoMotive today to receive more information on this or any of our other industry leading towing dynamometers.
