DuraTester Drilling Motor Test Stand

The DuraTester motor dyno provides safe, efficient, and accurate verification of drilling motor performance prior to use downhole.

Description

The DuraTester™ is a drilling motor dynamometer test bench ready to ensure your motor is ready for operation and decrease possible nonproductive time (NPT). It is designed to be operated safely and efficiently by one person. The DuraTester offers easy clamping and support systems for either straight or bent motors. In addition, the DuraTester offers a fast and simple means to couple the motor to high-pressure fluid supply and easy connection of the motor output shaft to the dynamometer. Floor-to-floor time is therefore very short, so the unit offers a rapid turnaround on any test.
