This apparatus is useful for measurement of power transmitted for various input power conditions with varied belt tension. Belt slip or creep also can be measured. The apparatus consists of a variable speed d.c. Motor, driving pulley and driven pulley of equal diameters. The pulleys are mounted on input shaft (motor shaft) and output shaft. The driven pulley can slide on the base only with bearing block to change the initial tension in belt. Brake drum is mounted on the output shaft, which helps to measure power output. The motor speed is varied by thyristor control d.c. Drive. A double channel digital speed indicator indicates driving and driven pulley speeds. With the help of stroboscope (not in the scope of supply) it is possible to demonstrate the slip of belt on driving and driven pulley.
