Insulating Oil Testers
The main functions of electrical insulating oils are heat dissipation and reliable insulation of energised parts of electrical installations. During the normal operation, moisture and other impurities penetrate into insulating oils, leading to a deterioration of their dielectric properties. This in turn may result in catastrophic failures of critical electrical equipment.

Test Data Management
When testing your products, the measurement and test data produced is invaluable in helping your improve your product quality. Most companies do nothing with their test data apart from storing on a hard drive somewhere. Accessing it and using this data is the most valuable way of gaining insights into your manufacturing performance and enabling you to make immediate improvements to help increase product quality whilst reducing the likelihood of unwelcome field failures and expensive product recall events.

Handheld Turns Ratio & Winding Resistance Tester
TWR-H Series
Handheld TWR-H device is DV Power single-phase instrument designed for measuring transformer winding resistance and turns ratio.The instrument has two output DC sources for measuring transformer winding resistance. The first DC source can output up to 2 A DC and is used for injecting current to the transformer’s high voltage winding. The second DC source can output up to 10 A DC and is used for testing the transformer’s low voltage winding. This is especially useful when measuring winding resistance of distribution transformers. These transformers have large turns ratio and therefore a big difference between resistances of high voltage and low voltage windings. Upon the winding resistance test, it is also possible to demagnetize the transformer core. The demagnetization process is completely automatic and safe.Together with the turns ratio, the instrument also measures excitation current and phase shift. This enables detecting transformer core or winding turns failures which cannot be spotted by measuring turns ratio only. The instrument can output test voltage up to 40 V AC for this test, but it can also output a very low test voltage of 1 V AC which is necessary for turns ratio verification of the majority of current transformers.TWR-H is powered by an internal Li-Ion battery. Up to 100 tests can be performed with a fully charged battery.

Bending Deflectometers For ISO 178, JIS K 7171, And ASTM D790 Compliant Testing
After tensile testing, flexural tests are the most common strength tests for plastics and other resins. The main standards for plastic flexural (bend) tests are ISO 178, JIS K 7171, and ASTM D790, which require very accurate test systems. These standards include flexural strain measurements using a deflectometer, ranging from micro-strain measurements in the elastic region, the reversible elongation at the beginning of tests, to larger strain measurements in the plastic region. Shimadzu's deflectometers integrate easily into AG-X plus series, AGS-X series, and EZ-X test frames and Trapezium X testing software. Since these deflectometers push up against the specimen from below, the specimen color is not a limiting factor, as can be for laser type non-contact deflectometers. Furthermore, these deflectometers can partially absorb the shock during specimen failure, preventing specimen fragments from scattering.

Accelerated Product Life Cycle
Delserro Engineering Solutions
Under normal conditions it may take years to gather failure data on the life cycle of new products. Through accelerated life testing the overall time to failure can be reduced to weeks by increasing the frequency of the field loads and by removing insignificant stress components. In addition, life cycle testing on a product can be reduced or accelerated dramatically by increasing the stress levels to higher than normal. Putting a product through Accelerated Life Testing can reduce test time from weeks to days while still achieving satisfactory results saving both time and money.
