Functionality
- electrical heating and classification of material and connection properties
- reproducible continuous current and/or short circuit current (incl. software monitoring)
- dynamic DC-application currents between 300A and 20.000A
- flexible adjustable current application (times adjustable down to 0.001s)
- data acquisition temperature (3x), current (1x) and voltage (1x)
- monitoring resolution (30s with 500 measuring points)
- data export as .csv data
Application segments
- test of joint – and geometry properties in current and high current applications
examples:
- simulation charging EV
- simulation dynamic racetrack application EV (stress profiles)
- defined heating of electrically conductive components (temperature-controlled)
