Closest match I can think of is an Evo AFM-240-4, driven by a Rinehart PM150dx inverter.Hello, I hope some one here can help me out. I´m on a project to convert a Bus using a 190hp, 700 nm Torque diesel engine to electric.
My first though was to get an electric motor with the same power and torque, but is seems that it will be too much, but because such an electric motor is quite expensive.
I want to calculate how smaller I can go with the e motor without loosing performance vs. the diesel. We are planning to keep the gearbox.
Gearbox: 1st 6.7, 2nd 3.81, 3rd 2.29, 4th 1.48, 5th 1, 6th 0.73. Final drive 6.14
Diesel engine: 700 Nm torque from 1400 to 1600,
190 Hp @2200
I have calculated the "normal" acceleration" to be 25 sec. from 0-60km/h.
Wheel radius is 22in.
No clue what the motor costs (let me know!) but the inverter is about 7 grand or so.
