Independent Measurement for Vibration Control
By: Randall Bloom
Platinous Series
The Platinous series lets you select from a variety of sizes, ranges, and options to meet your specific environmental testing requirements. ESPEC Platinous series includes features for quality and reliable operation:
Stainless steel exterior
Energy-efficient refrigeration with an exclusive electronic expansion valve system
Specialized humidity generation and control
Unique thermal break construction for extreme testing
Casters, cable port, shelf, & USB port standard
ETL-listed electrical panel conforming to UL 508A
ESPEC can add safety options for testing lithium-ion batteries or other products. See the options tab for a list or the Battery brochure below
Improved programming and data collection via computer
Standard USB port for uploading and downloading test programs and operation datalogs.
Optional remote monitoring, programming, and data collection via our Ethernet/LAN-based Web Controller
Direct access via an optional RS-232 serial port.
Energy-saving operation
Built into the P-300 controller are improved control algorithms for more efficient chamber operation. Invisible to the end user, the P-300 uses advanced control of an electronic expansion valve to save energy and improve control of the refrigeration system. Additional improvements in refrigeration and heater operation make the new generation of ESPEC Platinous chambers the most energy efficient ever.

New OhmBox measures electrical contact resistance during the fastening process
The electrical contact resistance between two fastener components is a key quality parameter, especially when the bolted joints carry electrical current. If the resistance is too high, heat is generated between the elements. In vehicles, for example, this can lead to malfunctions or even trigger fires. In response to this problem, Kistler is adding the OhmBox to its tried-and-tested ANALYSE friction coefficient test stand. Users of the new OhmBox can measure electrical resistance while fastening is actually in progress. This enables developers to define optimal tightening parameters – so they can design safe and reliable current-carrying bolted joints.

The Critical Role of Wind Noise Testing in the EV Era
The increasing popularity and growing offering of electric vehicles (EVs), are changing many aspects associated with vehicle sound and acoustics (see our posts related to the in-cabin soundscape of the EV, for example). The classic issue of pass-by noise testing is no exception. Still a crucial aspect of automotive design and regulation, it has evolved to ensure that EVs (and other vehicles) not only meet the maximum noise limits set by various national and international regulations, but also adhere to new minimum noise requirements.
