Diesel Engine Testing

Diesel Engine Testing

The aim of the newly developed diesel engine test rig was to construct a flexible and decentralized measurement system for diesel motors in a test cell. The system measures a series of standard signals such as temperature, pressure, force, torque, RPM...

Harmonics Analyser

Harmonics Analyser

The measurement of 50Hz or 60Hz voltage and current signals as well as the evaluation of such signals is necessary for assessing the quality of the power utility delivered. The testing required, however, is no easy task. There are standards...

High Temperature Fuel Cell Testing

High Temperature Fuel Cell Testing

In a Stack, a lot of cell voltage (approx. 120 single voltages), pressures and temperatures have to be measured very precise. During the conversion of the energy from the gas and the oxygen into electricity temperatures of 800 – 900 °C are appearing.

Achieve high signal density (A4-4 has 16 high performance thermocouple channels per module). The resolution of 19-bit fulfil future requirements.

Load Measurement System for Wind Turbines

Load Measurement System for Wind Turbines

Load Measurement System of Wind Turbines Unison Co. Ltd., a leading company in the field of new and renewable energy.

That means wind energy, photovoltaic and bio energy. At this application a lot of measurement quantities at wind turbines are monitored. The measurements are weather quantities like humidity, air pressure, ambient temperature, rain, wind direction and -speed, electrical quantities like the generated 3 phase voltage, current, frequency and the resulting power, as well as the mechanical quantities like material strain in the flap fixings, in the rotating shaft and in the lower and upper part of the tower, acceleration at the shaft, torque and RPM of the shaft, the azimuth angle of the flaps and the position of the turbine head.

M2D Control of Nuclear Seal Surface

M2D Control of Nuclear Seal Surface

Nuclear reactors need regular inspection and repair of the main sealing of the reactor tank. While the reactor cools down, every step in the inspection process is planned precisely. The Laser Scanner provides an automated surface inspection â€¦

M2D Seal Inspection Nuclear Reactor

M2D Seal Inspection Nuclear Reactor

M2D - Laser Scanner improves nuclear plant inspection. Nuclear reactors need inspection and repair of the main sealing of the reactor tank. They go through inspections in a regular schedule. Due to cost, the inspection

Mechanical Seal Quality Test

Mechanical Seal Quality Test

The test of a mechanical seal depends on its design and purpose. Several factors such as the rotational speed of the shaft or axel, the pressure, the temperature and the nature of the medium...

Nuclear Reactor Seal Inspection

Nuclear Reactor Seal Inspection

M2D - Laser Scanner improves nuclear plant inspection, automated surface inspection on the main sealing of the nuclear reactor

Nuclear reactors need inspection and repair of the main sealing of the reactor tank. They go through inspections in a regular schedule. Due to cost, the inspection team works under a very high pressure on the timing of the whole project. While the reactor cools down, every step is planned precisely. Finally the main reactor tank is opened.

Polares Power Analyzer

Polares Power Analyzer

IMC's Polares can be utilized as a power quality analyzer, power meter and an event analyzer.
