Introduction
The DYN-MS-100 is designed to provide dynamic force excitation for vibration and shock testing of small sized mechanical structures. The DYN-MS-100 is a compact, lightweight and powerful general purpose electrodynamic shaker with an integrated amplifier providing up to 100 N peak sine force.
General Information
Unpacking and Inspection

Theory of Operation
DYN-MS-100 is an electromagnetic actuator. Electro-magnetic actuators are basically voice coils consisting of a permanent magnet and coil. The moving element can be the coil or the magnet depending on the design requirements. The moving element is usually suspended by an elastic membrane.
DYN-MS-100 has a moving coil (driving coil) whose current is controlled for vibration generation. The stationary magnetic field is produced by a permanent magnet.

Outline Drawing
The dimensional properties of DYN-MS-100 shakers are given below.
Operation and Installation
General
The general shaker connector configuration is given below.
External Signal Mode
Connect DC power source and drive signal to shaker power input and signal input respectively. Start the external signal source. Adjust the Gain of the amplifier by turning the Gain Knob clockwise.
Internal Signal Mode
The amplifier can generate sine signal from 1Hz to 15 kHz with 1 Hz increments that the user can adjust with the Sine Frequency Generator Switch. Connect DC power source and drive signal to shaker power input. Pull the Gain Knob out.
Raise or lower the Sine Frequency Generator Switch to the desired Sine frequency. Adjust the Gain of the amplifier by turning the Gain Knob clockwise. The frequency of the generated sine signal will be visible on the LCD Screen.
Shaker-Structure Interaction (Stingers)
Stingers used in modal shakers are thin rods with a specific length yielding low lateral and high axial stiffness. The high axial stiffness is necessary to transmit the shaker force directly to the test structure with high efficiency whereas the low lateral stiffness is necessary for protecting the shaker from moment loads and to minimize shaker alignment issues. The stingers are mounted on the shaker via a chuck. Force or impedance head sensors can be mounted on the other side. The Dynalabs modal shakers stinger sets include 4 collet, 1 nut and 3 stinger rod sizes. The chuck consists of two pieces. The collet squeezes the stinger with the tightening effect of the nut. Choose a collet size as close to your stinger diameter as possible.
Shaker Alignment
Shaker alignment is a very important step of modal testing. Poor alignment can cause force components in unmeasured directions and can even damage the shaker. In order to overcome this problem, the trunnion can be adjusted for proper alignment. Furthermore, the tip of the stinger can be removed during the alignment process in order to reduce the free end deflection as shown above.
Shaker Mounting
The shaker is designed to rest on its rubber isolators. However, these isolators can be removed for rigid or semi-rigid mounting. If it is not possible to bolt down the shaker, hot glue is also a good mounting option. The shaker can also be suspended by elastic bungee cords for lateral testing. Additional inertial weight may be attached to the bottom of the shaker using hot glue.
Power Requirements
DYN-MS-100 has an integrated power amplifier which is powered by its power adaptor. Please note the output voltage and current ratings of the adaptor in a replacement adaptor is to be used.
Cooling
DYN-MS-100 does not require forced cooling. Air convection cooling is sufficient for the force levels given in the specifications.
Frequency Response
The following figure shows the Input voltage normalized acceleration levels versus frequency of the shaker.
Maintenance and Troubleshooting
The DYN-MS-100 shaker is a sealed device requiring no maintenance if the operating instructions described in this manual are followed. Repair of damage to the coil, exciter body or magnet core should not be attempted. Please return the shaker to Dynalabs for proper repair.
Safety
Please ensure that this manual section is reviewed and understood prior to installation, operation or maintenance of the equipment. The danger of electrical shock or fire always exists in electrical equipment. The DYN-MS-100 Shaker is designed for safe operation. Safety features such as electrical insulation on outer surfaces are provided for the safe operation of the shaker system.
Grounding
The shaker is internally grounded via the power adapter. However, if further grounding is necessary a grounding socket is available on the shaker as shown. Appropiate grounding cable is also supplied with the shaker.
