2VS
The 2VS is mechanically identical to our most popular model, the 5VS. We build the 2VS with a 2 Hp motor instead of the 5 Hp of the 5VS allowing us to provide the fully computer controlled, variable motor speed feature at a lower cost. The 2VS is capable of testing at two specific strokes: 1.0 and 2.0 inches. The SHOCK6 Test Control and Damper Analysis software enables you to perform static and dynamic gas tests, temperature (with optional sensor) or time based warming of a damper, as well as stop at bottom dead center. A standard 2VS has force capacity up to +/- 1250 lbs. at 10 ips and damper velocities up to +/20 inches per second with a 2-inch stroke. Typical Motorsports Application The 2VS generates valuable information for teams preparing sprint cars, small-bore open-wheel cars, late-model stock cars, or any racecar mounting lower-force dampers. Completely portable, the 2VS is well suited for use at a race event or test session, where building and testing dampers is of primary importance to a race team engineer or crew chief.

Lower operating costs due to direct electric energy to motion conversion efficiencies. More accurate and repeatable results than comparable hydraulic or pneumatic systems Significantly reduced facility and installation costs Lightweight and portable
A unique advantage of the VSR Advanced Spring software is the ability to do continuous displacement-based data acquisition, which is user-configurable to obtain simultaneous force and displacement samples at increments as small as 0.0001 inch, regardless of velocity.
Typical Applications:
The ASR-80D10 has been optimized for use as a development and analysis tool by spring manufacturers and advanced engine builders. While the ASR-80D10 has been sized to handle the majority of the automotive engine market, other force and stroke configurations can easily by configured to meet your additional testing requirements.

Roehrig Engineering damper dynamometers use the industrys most advanced fully Microsoft Windows compliant, full 32 bit software, SHOCK6. All computer controlled Roehrig Engineering damper dynamometers use the SHOCK6 Test Control Software to set up and control damper testing. SHOCK6 Test Control offers a choice of three different data collection and display methods, the Continuous Velocity Plot (CVP) and the Peak Velocity Pick-off (PVP) and the all new Multiple CVP(MCVP). All Roehrig Engineering damper dynamometers use the SHOCK6 Damper Analysis SHOCK6.0 data display screen portion of the software for the collection, analysis and display of test data. The CVP method collects force, velocity, and displacement data continuously during a complete cycle of the damper, while the dynamometer is running at a constant motor speed. This data is stored and formatted by the SHOCK6 Damper Analysis software to produce a continuous plot of damper force versus displacement. All plots display the entire cycle of the collected data for each parameter including the four standard variations of damper force versus velocity plots. The PVP method of collection consists of performing a number of CVP collections at predetermined dynamometer speeds. The SHOCK6 Damper Analysis software produces a PVP force versus velocity plot that uses only the peak velocity and corresponding forces recorded at each dynamometer speed. At each individual speed of a PVP collection, an option is available to collect and perform a CVP collection and analysis, if desired. MCVP allows the user a new way to collect several settings on an adjustable shock under one collection. By running a selected speed several times, the user can change the adjuster on the shock as it pauses between each run. The user can define how many times to run depending on how many adjustments they have! SHOCK6 Test Control offers many features unique to the industry. The most significant of these is the fully automated Dynamic Gas Test. This is a procedure used to separate the true damping forces generated by a damper from the force resulting from static pressurization of the gas chamber. This process requires the measurement of the load cell at the mid-stroke of the dynamometer on both the compression and rebound side of the stroke to determine the gas force. The seal drag of the damper can also be determined during this testing.
