Your Partner for All Testing Tasks: Our Service Portfolio

Carry out your performance tests on our advanced test benches. With cutting-edge technology, we offer all necessary test runs – mechanical and electrical.

Test Stations for Generator Units

Our test platforms for generator sets enable testing of generators with up to 3,000 kWel output. The units are tested under real-world conditions. Through accurate measurements and in-depth analysis, we guarantee the optimal performance and reliability of the generators.

Stand-Alone Parallel Operation for up to Three Modules

Our service enables island parallel operation of up to three modules with a total capacity of up to 6,000 kWel, allowing for flexible testing of different engine configurations and systems. We can simulate various operating conditions and assess engine performance under different load scenarios.

Test Runs

Our test runs include various load scenarios with a power factor cos φ ranging from 0.8 inductive to 1. By conducting test runs with different power factors, we can simulate actual operations and test the engines under realistic conditions.

Nominal Voltage

We can test generators with nominal voltages of 400/690 V and frequencies of 50/60 Hz. This ensures that the machines meet the specified electrical requirements and operate reliably under the common operating conditions of 50 or 60 Hz.
