General Description
The DC and AC Power Circuits Training System combines a modular design approach with computer-based data
acquisition and control to introduce students to the fundamentals of electricity, such as direct current (dc),
alternating current (ac), voltage, resistance, and Ohm's Law. The training system is designed to operate at a low
voltage to ensure the safety of students beginning their training in electric power technology.
The DC and AC Power Circuits Training System is part of the Electric Power Technology Training Systems, Series
8010. Each training system in Series 8010 is based on the Electric Power Technology Training Program and
provides a turn-key solution dealing with some aspects of the wide field of electrical energy. The exhaustive
courseware provided with each training system covers all the theory required to perform the laboratory
exercises, while review questions and unit tests allow students to test the knowledge they have gained.
The Electric Power Technology Training Program is highly modular in both courseware and hardware. Because of
this, courses and equipment from the program are available as required, either individually or in the context of a
specific training system. The program covers several different subjects in the field of electrical energy, such as
rotating machines, electrical power transmission, power electronics, home energy production from renewable
resources (wind and sunlight), large-scale electricity production from hydropower and wind power, smart-grid
technologies (SVC, STATCOM, HVDC transmission, etc.), storage of electrical energy in batteries, and drive
systems for small electric vehicles and cars.

Modular Approach
The modular approach for designing the training program and lab equipment enables instructors to start
building their electrical-energy laboratory with a basic package of courses and equipment and add new courses
and equipment over time without needless duplication of equipment.
All lab equipment consists of modules that can be inserted into a workstation. Module dimensions vary
between two standard EMS sizes: full-size and half-size. Symbols and diagrams representing the electrical
components in each module are clearly silk-screened on the front panel. Standard, color-coded safety banana
jacks are used to provide access to the various components in each module.

elearning Formats
The courseware is also available in three eLearning formats for users preferring a computer-based approach:

• Model 21001- E: eSeries format, facilitated by the Mind-Sight eLearning system.

• Model 21001-F: SCORM-based format, designed to be hosted by a third-party, SCORM 1.2 compliant management
system.
• Model 21001-G: Stand-alone format, available on CD-ROM. This format runs on a web browser and does not require
any management system.

Please refer to our website at www.labvolt.com for more information about the Mind-Sight, SCORM, and Stand-
Alone eLearning formats.

Equipment Description
Three-Module Workstation
579483 (8131-00)
The Three-Module Workstation is a fully assembled workstation
that serves the same purpose as the Mobile Workstation, Model
8110, but without any storage cabinet or pull-out work surface.
This workstation is intended for use on a bench (not supplied)
and is fitted with wooden feet to protect the bench top.
The Three-Module Workstation consists of a single row of three
full-height compartments that can accommodate up to three full-
size EMS modules or six half-size EMS modules.

Module Installation
The EMS modules are guided into position along stainless steel guide rails. Separators between each bay of the
workstation ensure perfect alignment of the EMS modules and allow their easy insertion in the workstation. A
holding mechanism ensures that each EMS module stays in place once it is installed in a compartment of the
workstation. A front-mounted push lever allows all EMS modules on the workstation to be released for easy
removal.

Safety Padlock Bars

Two safety padlock bars on the front of the workstation prevent students from removing EMS modules during
laboratory exercises. The bars can be removed and locked to the side of the workstation when the safety lock is
not necessary.

Capacitive Load
579545 (8331-05)
The Capacitive Load consists of a module housing nine
capacitors arranged in three identical banks. Each bank consists
of three capacitors connected in parallel that can be switched on
or off with toggle switches to obtain various capacitance values.
This allows the equivalent capacitance of each bank to be
increased or decreased by steps. Six safety banana jacks on the
module front panel provide access to each capacitor bank. The
three capacitor banks can be connected separately for operation
in three-phase circuits. Also, the three capacitor banks can be
connected together for operation in single-phase circuits.
A permanently connected discharge resistor reduces the voltage across the terminals of each bank of capacitors
to 5% of the applied voltage within 25 seconds after the load is disconnected from the supply. The Capacitive
Load may be used with both dc and ac power.
The Capacitive Load is commonly used in conjunction with the other basic load modules, the Resistive Load and
the Inductive Load to experiment with the effects of different types of load on a circuit.

Four-Quadrant Dynamometer/Power Supply

579651 (8960-C5)
The Four-Quadrant Dynamometer/Power Supply is a highly
versatile USB peripheral designed to be used in the Electric
Power Technology Training Systems. Two operating modes are
available: Dynamometer and Power Supply. A wide variety of
user-selectable functions is available in each operating mode.
In the Dynamometer mode, the unit becomes a four-quadrant
dynamometer that can act as either a fully configurable brake
(i.e., a mechanical load) or a fully configurable prime mover (i.e.,
a motor drive). In the Power Supply mode, the unit becomes a
four-quadrant power supply that can act as a dc voltage source,
dc current source, ac power source, etc.
In each operating mode, key parameters related to the selected function are displayed. Speed, torque,
mechanical power, and energy are displayed in the Dynamometer mode while voltage, current, electrical power,
and energy are displayed in the Power Supply mode. Optional functions, such as a small wind-turbine emulator,
a hydraulic turbine emulator, a solar panel emulator, battery chargers, an SDK (Software Development Kit) etc.,
can be added to the standard functions to further enhance the training possibilities of the Four-Quadrant
Dynamometer/Power Supply.
Two modes are available to control the function which the Four-Quadrant Dynamometer/Power Supply
performs: Manual and Computer-Based.
In the Manual control mode, the module operates as a stand-alone unit, and the function performed is selected,
set, and monitored using front-panel mounted controls and display. This mode provides access to all basic
functions. In the Computer-Based control mode, the function performed by the module is selected, set, and
monitored using the LVDAC-EMS software. In this mode, communication between the Four-Quadrant
Dynamometer/Power Supply and the host computer running the LVDAC-EMS software is achieved through a
USB connection. This mode provides access to all basic functions, as well as to additional advanced functions.
Model 8960-C includes the Four-Quadrant Dynamometer/Power Supply, Model 8960-3, with the following
function sets activated:

• Standard Functions (Manual Control), Model 8968-1

Optional Equipment Description

Mobile Workstation (Optional)
579755 (8110-20)
The Mobile Workstation is a ready-for-use workstation that consists of two
fully assembled modules: a Workstation, Model 8134-2, mounted on a Mobile
Storage Cabinet, Model 89117-1. Four rubber-tire swivel casters allow easy
movement of the workstation in the laboratory classroom. The lower portion of
the workstation serves as a storage cabinet with two hinged panels and a lock
handle. Immediately above the storage cabinet is a pullout work surface with a
scuff- and burn-resistant laminate finish. The upper portion of the workstation
consists of three rows of compartments designed to house EMS modules. Two
of these rows have full-height compartments while the other row has half-
height compartments. Each row of full-height compartments can
accommodate up to three full-size EMS modules or six half-size EMS modules,
whereas the row of half-height compartments can accommodate up to three
half-size EMS modules.

21 © Festo Didactic
 DC and AC Power Circuits Training System, LabVolt Series

Module Installation
The EMS modules are guided into position along stainless steel guide rails. Separators between each bay of the
workstation ensure perfect alignment of the EMS modules and allow their easy insertion in the workstation. A
holding mechanism ensures that each EMS module stays in place once it is installed in a compartment of the
workstation. Front-mounted push levers allow all EMS modules on a single row to be released for easy removal.

Safety Padlock Bars

Two safety padlock bars on the front of the workstation prevent students from removing EMS modules during
laboratory exercises. The bars can be removed and locked to the side of the workstation when the safety lock is
not necessary.

Additional Information
Six holes in the rear panel of the workstation allow connection to a power supply, as well as the connection of 2
kW machines to their interconnection modules. Assembly of the workstation before painting ensures that each
EMS module in the workstation is correctly grounded.

workstation can be mounted on either a Mobile Storage Cabinet,
Model 89117-1, to make a Mobile Workstation, Model 8110-2, or
on a Mobile Base, Model 88863, to make a mobile workstation
without storage cabinet. In that case, it is possible to mount and
lock a second Workstation, Model 8134-2, on top of the first
Workstation to double the space available for EMS modules.
The Workstation consists of three rows of compartments
designed to house EMS modules. Two of these rows have full-
height compartments while the other row has half-height
compartments. Each row of full-height compartments can
accommodate up to three full-size EMS modules or six half-size
EMS modules whereas the row of half-height compartments can accommodate up to three half-size EMS
modules.
