Engine test facilities may require
refurbishment or upgrading for a variety of
reasons :
  |
Obsolescence
of the control and instrumentation
systems |
  |
Imposition
of more rigorous environmental noise and
vibration standards |
  |
Fatigue
failure of the exhaust system, noise
control structures or other key
components |
  |
Obsolescence
of the engines for which the facility was
designed |
  |
Advent
of more powerful engines outstripping the
capacity of the facility systems |
|
The scope and timing of a
refurbishment programme requires careful
consideration :
  |
Some
parts of a facility will need to be
replaced, but others might continue to be
serviceable, given an overhaul or an
appropriate upgrade. |
  |
The
work may have to be scheduled around
existing test facility commitments. |
Exign Technology
has extensive knowledge of engine test cells and
can apply this experience to provide
cost-effective solutions to a wide range of
requirements from individual system refurbishment
to the upgrade of a whole facilities.
