301 Platform Specifications
10/2009, rev 1.6
Derivation
The 301A motion platform was designed to carry one person, be powered from a 120 VAC 20A branch circuit, and not need to be bolted to the floor. These fundamental limitations lead to the following performance specifications:
Electrical
(The input current is determined by platform static loading and dynamics. The currents below are the maximum observed for a 100 kg (220 lb.) rider driving a racing simulation.)

35 A* |
*A thermal circuit breaker is necessary in the branch circuit supplying the machine because of high peak currents.
