Custom heating system test standConstructive collaboration

We bring your test stand ideas for heat pumps, gas boilers, and other heating systems in the home sector to life. The test stands are used in development or manufacturing to analyse the function, performance, efficiency, and safety of the system under test.

Typically, our customers provide the software and control technology themselves. We handle everything else, such as the casing, piping, sensors, hydraulics, and electrical systems (including control cabinets and wiring).

SensorsTest data we can capture

As part of the testing, the test stands capture important operating data to evaluate the system under test, possibly in accordance with standards such as DIN EN 14511 and EN 14825 for heat pumps, or EN 15502 and EN 304 for gas boilers. The data can include:

Temperature

Measurement of the temperature, for example, at the inlets and outlets of the heating system, refrigerant, supply air, exhaust gases, or in the heat transfer medium circuit

Pressure

Measurement of pressure, for example, in the heat transfer medium and refrigerant circuits or in the fuel supply and exhaust systems

Flow rate

For example, flow rates of the heat transfer medium, refrigerants, fuels, or exhaust gases

Energy consumption

Determination of the required electrical power or the current gas, oil, or combustible consumption

Exhaust gases

Analysis of exhaust gas concentrations, for example, CO2, CO, nitrogen oxides (NOx), and other combustion products

Calculated metrics

Calculations such as heating and cooling capacity, coefficient of performance (COP), efficiency, or exhaust loss

Simulated componentsWhat we can simulate

The manufactured test stands simulate the real, future environment of the heating system, enabling comprehensive, precise, and repeatable tests. Important components may include:

Heat sources & sinks

Components to simulate heat sources and sinks, such as immersion heaters, solar thermal systems, or shower heat recovery

Air, water & brine circuits

Piping to simulate the heat transfer medium circuits (gas or liquid) of the building

Energy supply

For example, electrical voltage (with or without photovoltaic, battery, etc.) or fuel supply (e.g., gas feed) and exhaust lines

Types of testsWhere, when, and how do you want to test?

Development test stand

In research and development departments, there is usually a focus on comprehensive environmental simulation to allow prototypes to be compared extensively, objectively, and precisely. Our solutions can also be used as endurance test stands.

In-line test stand

Along the manufacturing line, the focus is typically on testing individual components (e. g., electrical function tests or leak tests).

End-of-line test stand

At the end of the production line, quality defects should be identified before delivery. Typical in-line tests that were not carried out earlier are made up for. Additionally, tests focussing on heating and cooling performance as well as product safety are performed.
