It is particularly suitable for low-speed applications up to 60kph.

Developing up to 250 Nm of torque over its 200mm length, it is then able to propel any light vehicle with passengers transported and is compatible with low voltages: from 48V to 200V. Its direct-drive configuration reduces the number of mechanical parts in systems and therefore production costs as well as potential sources of failure. At the same time, its gain in efficiency increases the range of electric vehicles. Its shaft can thus be adapted to fit any wheel.

This configuration also provides for quick maintenance and a very limited number of wear parts for a system that is easy to understand for technicians.

This method is currently not very widespread and is part of an ecological and technological transition process specific to our time.

There are many applications such as leisure vehicles like golf carts, personnel transport on industrial sites or even small autonomous buses.

The P154 model is a 20kW water turbine 100% “made in France”. The generator required nearly two years of R&D and its first production version left our workshops in Luzinay in 2018.

This machine has been in operation for two years now and has proven its worth and can be tailored to numerous configurations such as river or estuary.

It is the larger version of the P66 also marketed by Guinard Energies Nouvelles and designed by Keep’Motion which itself develops the 6kW version. Designed to withstand the most arduous marine conditions (marine breakwater, salt, shellfish), these machines are fully suited to estuary facilities with very little civil engineering. They also provide for operation with very little current or low head through their design, thus allowing for maximum use of renewable energy with minimum impact on the environment.

Particular attention has been given to the design and choice of materials in order to reduce its ecological impact with a high rate of recyclability and a contained volume for such power ranges.

From instrumentation to human/machine interface through mechanical design, we are able to design and automate professional benches that meet industrial needs in a short time and at a low cost.

This 10kW test bench was built in less than 6 months by our teams. Our customer needed a turnkey solution in a very short time frame. We were able to meet their needs with a fully instrumented bench incorporating:

Static tests
– Measuring the resistance between phases
– Monitoring of thermal probes
– Measuring the insulation resistance up to 50GΩ- Measuring continuous leakage current up to 6KV
– Dielectric tests up to 5KV
– Common mode capacitance measurement
– Automation of static tests and programming sequences.

Rotary tests
– Back EMF measurement up to 690Vrms between phases
– Measuring of mechanical and iron losses
– Measuring of the resolver offset

Load tests
– Power measurement
– Measuring of short-circuit losses

We take advantage of the pool of companies in Lyon to have all the mechanical parts and electrical cabinets made nearby thereby minimising supply times.
