Optimized control system to save energy costs (eco-mode)


Doing a shocktest the basket (incl. test equipment) is for a longer period in one temperature
zone (hot/cold chamber). During the whole dwell time, the other chamber has to hold the
temperature, that cost a lot of energy.


If the electrical load in the non-active chamber will be switched off (heating elements in the
hot chamber and fan and compressor in the cold chamber) the power consumption can be
reduced a lot, unless the dwell time is long enough to achieve afterwards the necessary test
temperature in the chamber.

As an example, the following cycle with the following conditions was used in a shocktest
chamber:

Temperature cold chamber -40 C (Pre-tempering -50 C)

Temperature hot chamber +85 C

Dwell time for each chamber 1 h

Weight of test specimen 10 kg steel


Result:

With an assumed operation time of 6000 hours per year, you have to calculate the following
consumption of energy:


Without optimized control system approx. 34.800 kWh.

At identical operation with
Optimized control system approx. 23.100 kWh.

Data interfaces Networking of the CTS cabinets via ETHERNET
interface with customer network (incl. CID-
network-version) or RS 232 - interface for
communication via a pc.

As an option the cabinets can be cross-linked via
RS 485 - interfaces. This will require installation
of cabling by CTS. This method is necessary if
long distance cabling cannot be avoided and our
optional cross-linkage via ETHERNET is not
utilised.

Optional USB port instead of RS 232.










Note:

Company-specific standards and norms are not considered.

Clarifications with public authorities are on site. Costs are not included in the quotation.


The installation cannot be used for tests on explosive, corrosive, toxic or easy inflammable
materials or with specimens generating or releasing such materials. This applies particularly
to all tests with liquids that boil easily, fuel, hydraulic fluids, lubricants, etc.
In this case, please pay attention to the information of the material safety data sheet.

The operator has to check the material compatibility of the materials fitted in the testing room
(stainless steel 1.4301, non-ferrous metals, aluminium, silicone) to the materials/gases
which might be emitted by the test material. This can form acids or bases when exposed to
humidity. The leaking materials/gases can lead to extensive damage of the equipment.

CTS GmbH will not take responsibility (no warranty) for damages resulting of emission from
toxic or aggressive substances from test specimen.
