Dynamic Automotive Catalyst Oven

Emmissions catalysts are an integral part of automotive and truck motors. In particular for diesel motors, the development of effective NOx catalyts is critical. Increasingly-stringent norms are pressuring both automotive catalyst makers and car/truck-motor suppliers to come up with new solutions to effectively address this.
The task

ILS was approached by a client requiring exceptionally high heating and cooling rates required to simulate the latest automotive catalyst driving cycles.

Heating and cooling rates on the order of 50°C/s were required!
The ILS solution

ILS designed, constructed and operated an in-house developed test-stand to demonstrate the ability to meet these challenging new criteria.

The ILS automotive catalyst testing unit is unique in its ability to heat and cool with the above mentioned ramping rates.
The result

The successful ability to meet these criteria resulted in ILS being chosen as the preferred supplier for supplying an entire test facility to a major automotive manufacturer.

The overall time from start-to-finish of this project was 5 months.
