6310/CA

This rugged, battery-powered instrument provides the mechanic with an efficient and effective method to evaluate and determine secondary ignition system integrity, power cylinder combustion characteristics and peak pressure balance. The data collector/analyzer is packed with powerful features and has a large, backlit color display making the data easy to observe.  The menu-driven interface is simple to operate; simply scroll through the menu items, highlight the desired option, and hit the enter key.  In fact, by operating in the 6310/CA “lite” mode, a machine can be set up and ready for collecting data within a few minutes.  The 6310/CA mode, using the optional encoder, allows crank angle information and calculations such as ignition timing, peak pressure angle and indicated horsepower to be acquired

Power Cylinder Balancer

The Model 6310/CA Power Cylinder balancing function is easy to use and is the most comprehensive instrument available for balancing two-stroke and four-stroke internal combustion engines. The mechanic can select the number of continuous cycles of data from 10 to 250 to be used in the statistical calculations. The graphical display includes two pre-set viewing options, allowing the mechanic the choice of observing only the numerical peak pressure statistical data or adding simulated real-time pressure vs. time graphs for more detailed combustion analysis.  On the analyzer, the “As Found” statistical report provides the mechanic with all the necessary combustion information for making the proper adjustments.  The “As Left” statistical report conveys the final results of the balancing operation.  By using the 6310/CA with the optional encoder, this unique instrument will allow the mechanic the choice of balancing the engine using Peak Firing Pressure (PFP) with the angle, Mean Effective Pressure (MEP), or Indicated Horsepower (IHP). Cylinder exhaust temperatures and other panel informationcan be manually entered via the keypad so a comprehensive report can be generated.

Secondary Ignition Analyzer

The Model 6310/CA secondary ignition analyzing function provides the most efficient, accurate, and comprehensive survey in the industry.  Software, incorporating sophisticated algorithms, accurately measure and record parameters such as ionization rise time and voltage, arc duration, and ring-down characteristics automatically while displaying a detailed secondary ignition pattern.  The technician can select the number of continuous cycles of data from 10 to 250 to be used in the statistical calculations.  The statistical summary reports of the secondary ignition parameters immediately convey the condition of each spark plug, secondary lead, and coil.  This unique instrument with the optional encoder allows the technician to measure individual cylinder ignition timing.

With Addition of the Crank-Angle or Encoder Kit

The 6310/CA can be used to balance the engine using horsepower per cylinder instead of combustion pressure.  You may use Peak Firing Pressure with the angle, Mean Effective Pressure, or Indicated Horsepower.

Optional equipment includes:
   • shaft encoder kit with timing light and 50-foot encoder cable
   • once-per-turn signal conditioner with magnetic pickup

The addition of either of these options allows for a quick check of compressor IHP and acquisition of other crank-angle related data, such as ignition timing and peak pressure angle.

Other data available is:

  • Peak Pressure Angle Statistics
  • RPM Display
  • Engine Performance Report (IHP/IMEP)
  • Ignition Statistics vs. Crank Angle Position
  • Individual Cylinder Ignition Timing
  • Horsepower Calculations

Power Cylinder Balancer Features

  • For use in balancing two-stroke and four-stroke internal combustion engines.
  • On-machine analysis
  • Peak pressure statistics
  • Peak pressure balance
  • Pressure vs. crank angle pattern
  • Coefficient of variance (COV)
  •  “As left” report conveys the final results of the  balancing operation
  • “As found” report provides the combustion information necessary for making the proper adjustments
  • Cycle number may be set from 10 to 250 for statistical calculations
  • Manual entry of engine panel readings such as cylinder exhaust temperatures
  • 12 pre-defined and 6 user customizable panel points

Secondary Ignition Analyzer Features

  • Provides eight secondary ignition parameter reports
  • On-machine analysis
  • Secondary ignition peak level statistics
  • Detailed secondary ignition patterns
  • Cycle number may be set from 10 to 250 for statistical calculations

Upgradeable Design

Applying upgradeable design criteria, the 6310/CA is the base product in a line of portable Windrock analyzers.  Consequently, if your predictive maintenance program requires additional machine data in the future, the 6310/CA can be upgraded to the 6310/MA Maintenance Analyzer or the 6310/PA Performance Analyzer at a fraction of the cost of new equipment.

Windows Software

Windows-based software is provided to easily setup the machinery database for data storage, historical archiving, and trending.  Comprehensive statistical reports with graphical displays are accessible, including “As Found” and “As Left” combustion reports as well as eight secondary ignition parameter reports.
