Model 2020PL ProBalancer Analyzer

Increase your plane or helicopter’s performance today with the ACES Systems ProBalancer Analyzer.

For those who need a little more horsepower than the ProBalancer Sport, we offer the Model 2020PL ProBalancer Vibration Analyzer Balancer. It provides step-by-step on-screen instructions for performing propeller balancing, rotor track and balance measurements and vibration surveys at an affordable price.

Applications:

  • Dynamic Propeller Balance
  • Rotor Track & Balance
  • Vibration Surveys

Benefits of Balancing include:

  • Reduce Component Wear
  • Increase Aircraft Performance
  • Reduce Crew Fatigue
  • Increase Safety

The Model 2020 PL ProBalancer features:

  • One-shot balancing
  • Automated weight placement solutions
  • Stores reusable setups
  • Graphic spectral display with curser and backlit LED screen
  • Dual channel, expanded views and simultaneous inputs
  • Supports multiple sensor types
  • Includes an industry-unique 5-year warranty

The ACES 2020 ProBalancer Kit includes all the vibration analyzing and balancing equipment required to improve the performance of your helicopter or plane. Contact our sales team today for a quote on our high-performance ACES propeller balancer.

Accuracy Vibration Amplitude: ± 5%, 0-10 IPS
Frequency Range: 0-12 KHz (720,000 RPM) per channel when collecting on both channels simultaneously OR 0-20 KHz (1,200,000 RPM) when collecting on a single channel
Tachometer Inputs: ± 0.3%, 100-10,000 rpm
Power Supply Type: Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) 12V, 4.5 Amp-hour internal
Operation Time: 10 – 12 hours (optimum)
Charging Time: 2 hours
Voltage 12 V DC Battery or 14-28 V DC ship’s power
Physical Height: 9.3 inches
Width: 7.5 inches
Depth: 4.4 inches
Weight: 4.8 lbs.
Operating Temperature: 0 to +50C
AC Input The data acquisition system is capable of measuring AC values from 0.1 volt to 2.048 volts peak
Tachometer-
Synchronized Measurements		 The analyzer can use the tachometer input to synchronously sample and average data. These data contain phase information for vibration related to the tachometer. The analyzer can report phase to ±3 degrees for this vibration, which is reproducible to 1 degree.
Unconditioned
Tachometer
Input		 Tachometer signal processing electronics are capable of adjusting the full-scale input range to handle any available sensor for measuring speed. Adjustment of the tachometer conditioning electronics is performed automatically by the microprocessor and requires no user intervention. The voltage level that is used as a reference for detection of the start of the revolution can be adjusted from 120mV to 5 volts. The tachometer circuitry can detect speeds up to 10.000 RPM.
Auto-ranging Input The analyzer auto-ranges all signal inputs based on sensor sensitivity. That way, it can determine the optimum gain setting to achieve the maximum dynamic range. Gains are adjusted by factors of two (1 to 512) for all channels. This adjustment enables the analyzer to perform each measurement without overload and with maximum accuracy.
Sensor Types The analyzer will accept any vibration signal input (acceleration, velocity, or displacement). The input is then displayed as collected or integrated to another vibration unit. The vibration input will accept any voltage-generating sensor (must have external charge converter when required).
Analysis Range Data is accurately transformed from the time to frequency domain using a high roll-off, 8-pole elliptical, anti-aliasing filter with a Fast Fourier Transformer (FFT). The analyzer will perform FFT resolutions of 100, 200, 400, and 800 lines.

"...[balancing of the Bell Jet Ranger 206B3] was accomplished with one-third of the test flights that other systems required..."

Joe Landers

"...I have found the ACES Systems Model 2020 ProBalancer to be a very reliable piece of equipment.  It has an easy installation, it's easy to use and understand, not to mention that it's been a real time-saver.  It is not uncommon to have the Robinson R22 and R44 helicopters balanced to .02 IPS.  That's quite impressive!"

"...using another system, it took over 20 cycles and two days to track and balance our MD500D.  Since purchasing the Model 2020 (ProBalancer), we have properly balanced our MD500D in 5 cycles, and it took less than one day."

The equipment is so easy to use that we figured out how to use the equipment and successfully did the necessary job (TFE731 vibration survey).

An unanticipated bonus of this equipment...paid for itself with this usage alone (AStar, Citation SII, and Challenger 601).
