Measurements at -40°C ambient temperature

We just tested our Q.bloxx XL A104 TCK in the climate chamber at -40°C ambient temperature and it does a perfect job under these extreme conditions.

The Q.bloxx XL A104 TCK provides 8 channels for thermocouples (here as Type K, NiCr/Ni) with standard miniature front sockets.

During a day in the climate chamber at -40°C it was completely frozen. After connecting with power supply to the I/O module it was delivering stable and precise measurement values. When temperature was increasing it passed dew point. We observed no impact on the measurement quality or from condensation during this phase. Our I/O module passed this test successfully – even when the datasheet recommends only -20°C operating conditions.

IPERMON – Innovative Performance Monitoring System for Improved Reliability and Optimized Levelized Cost of Electricity

Currently, a vast amount of research institutions and organizations are focusing on ways to improve the operation, reliability and consequently the output of PV systems. An important aspect yet to be targeted remains the procedural and standardized approach to calculate accurately the factors behind the various performance loss mechanisms, while also detecting and diagnosing potential failures at early stages or before occurrence. Identification of degradation and failure modes at preliminary stages is important as these mechanisms directly influence the performance, lifetime and reliability of PV technology.

Our new fiber optic measurement – without the hassle

Fiber optic measurement methods come with the advantage of being insensitive to interference from the environment. We all know that. What we also know is that actually using them in test and monitoring projects was not so easy so far. Either because there were steep learning curves or simply no integrated DAQ solution available. However, we have great news for you!
