With more than 10 years of experience in electrification we constantly adapt AVL E-STORAGE to the market’s future needs. Our portfolio bridges the gap from low voltage to high voltage, and from a few kilowatts up to megawatt clusters. With that, you profit from intelligent solutions and robust interfaces with high levels of usability, enabling you to purely focus on your test application.
AVL E-STORAGE™ Portfolio
The AVL E-STORAGE solution portfolio provides a wide range of different devices that can be combined to provide maximum flexibility. All devices are on the cutting edge of technology in terms of dynamic performance thus enabling test results that reflect real world conditions. All our E-STORAGE devices are available as battery emulators. No matter if the unit-under-test (UUT) is an inverter, e-motor, e-axle, or any other electrical component. AVL E-STORAGE focuses on low output ripple and offers modes for high voltage dynamics or voltage stability. This ensures a stable DC power supply to master the challenges of UUT testing.
Testing Battery Cells
To improve and accelerate electric vehicle development, AVL has developed a series of battery cell cyclers. These are bi-directional, multi-channel DC power supplies that test, diagnose, characerize and validate battery cells. They can achieve an output current that ranges from ± 2 A to ± 2,400 A thanks to their multiple variants and the parallelization of their channels. The AVL CELL TESTER™ 600A uses a unique current measurement technique providing the best accuracy (0.01 % of actual value) among high current cell testers while using only one current measurement range.
The AVL Universal Charger™ is a breakthrough solution to revolutionize the electric vehicle (EV) industry. With a focus on comprehensive testing, and seamless emulation of the charging process, this innovative technology eliminates the complicated challenges and covers all global standards. Regardless of the type of battery-powered vehicle (PHEVs, BEVs, FCEVs), the Universal Charger provides an unparalleled platform for thorough evaluation. Its capabilities go beyond charging to include advanced features such as charge and discharge simulations, hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing, and seamless integration of vehicle-to-anything (V2X) communication systems.
AVL´s intuitive automation system for battery testing, from cell to module and pack.
Battery tester and emulator for research and development, testing and validation.
Battery tester and emulator for research and development, testing, and validation purposes.
Highly dynamic, regenerative power supply optimized for the testing of low-voltage micro and mild hybrid systems.
Bi-directional multi-channel DC power supply to test and validate battery cells.
Battery packs, modules and cells, fuel cells, e-motor and e-axle solutions must operate safely and reliably in any environment. This can include extreme temperatures and humidity, which cannot be reproduced on the test track or in real test scenarios on the road. This is why we developed the modular AVL Climate Chamber.
The AVL CELL FIXTURE™ is an ergonomic and easy-to-use platform that holds the battery cell in its testing environment and connects it to testing equipment. The cell can be easily installed on the fixture in a separate location. The fixture is then quickly mounted in the testing environment. This significantly reduces downtime. In addition, AVL has developed the cell tab contacting element with a 600A capability and low resistivity.
AVL is the world’s largest independent company for development, simulation and testing in the automotive industry. Drawing on its pioneering spirit, the E-STORAGE segment provides the capacity to shape future mobility trends, worldwide.
