Motor & Turbine Intake Filter Testing for Harsh Environments
Testing systems compliant with ISO 5011 und ISO 29461 for evaluating engine and gas turbine intake filters under heavy dust loading and high airflow conditions.
Motor & Turbine Intake Filter Testing for Harsh Environments
Engine and turbine manufacturers face demanding intake environments with high dust loading, salt exposure, and fluctuating airflow conditions. Reliable filtration requires more than initial efficiency—it requires validated durability, pressure-drop stability, and dust-holding capacity.
SCPUR testing platforms support ISO 5011 und ISO 29461 procedures, enabling controlled continuous dust loading and precise airflow regulation for repeatable intake filter performance evaluation.
Herausforderungen der Branche & SCPUR-Lösungen
Converting complex dust-loading simulations into stable and repeatable durability testing data.
Manual dust refilling or feeder clogging can interrupt dust loading during testing, causing unstable airflow and inconsistent pressure-drop results.
SCPUR automated dust feeders provide continuous and controlled dust loading, ensuring stable test conditions and repeatable durability data across the full testing cycle.
Maintaining stable airflow becomes increasingly difficult as filter restriction rises during dust loading, often leading to inaccurate pressure-drop measurements.
By combining multi-nozzle flowmeters with variable-frequency airflow control, the system maintains stable airflow across the entire restriction range, ensuring accurate pressure-drop monitoring throughout the test.
Complex intake geometries often create sealing gaps at the test interface, allowing air bypass that leads to inaccurate efficiency measurements.
Custom quick-connect fixture adapters ensure reliable sealing for complex intake assemblies, eliminating air bypass and maintaining consistent testing conditions.

Die Herausforderung
Long-Cycle Testing Risks:
For engine and turbine intake filters, long-duration dust-loading tests are highly sensitive to dust feeding stability, airflow control, and sealing quality. Manual intervention increases the risk of inconsistent results.
Multiple Sources of Variation:
As filter restriction rises during testing, unstable airflow, fixture leakage, or interrupted dust loading can distort pressure-drop behavior and reduce the reliability of durability data.
Die SCPUR-Lösung
Stable Automated Dust Loading:
Automated feeders maintain continuous and repeatable dust loading throughout the test cycle.
