products MORE INTELLIGENT EMISSION TESTING The AVL iGENERATION Series II takes emission testing to the next level and sets new standards for intelligent and intuitive emission systems. The AVL Series II brings together customer feedback and requirements, collected since the launch of the iGeneration in 2007, and thus improves the use of intelligent technologies for smart R&D and certification emission testing according to current worldwide emission regulations. Since its market introduction in 2007 the AVL iGENERATION is the benchmark for exhaust measurement 3 0 F O C U S systems especially with regard to uniform platform technology, performance and emission automation software for engine and chassis dyno testbeds. The outstanding experience in emission testing combined with the comprehensive know-how has led to high quality products. This is proven by a broad, globally installed base of emission equipment and emission automation systems (e.g. more than 1250 AMA i60 and 275 iGEM emission automation systems installed at customers’). To increase the gap to alternative solutions on the market again, numerous breakthrough innovations have been realized in this new iGENERATION Series II. Every aspect important for emission testing has been improved and the iGENERATION Series II continuous to be the benchmark for small floor space. An extended and enhanced portfolio of gas analyzers (e.g. QCL, FTIR spectrometer, HOT CLD up to 180 °C, combined FID and PMD analyzer) with special attention to sensitivity, response times, robustness, serviceability and cost of ownership is key to the exhaust measurement systems of the Series II. The CVS i60 SII full flow dilution system is optimized to run test cycles with regard to e.g. HEV/PHEV applications by an extended valve manifold with an increased number of phases (max. five phases). This allows for simultaneous analyzing, purging, evacuating and filling of bags. Increased bag filling rates and reduced evacuation times are also achieved. The new FTIR i60 spectrometer with its newly developed, proprietary gas cell provides better detection limits and faster response times at lower sample flow rates. Serviceability and down times of critical components (e.g. laser) were substantially improved so that the FTIR spectrometer now comes with 3 years warranty. The revised, intuitive and interactive iGEM device control software platform supports all essential service and diagnosis functions and issues warnings in case of pending maintenance intervals. The Quality-Center iQ is a diagnostic tool for monitoring freely selectable variables as well as statistical and historical evaluation of calibration and check data. Thanks to the latest technology and compliance to current and upcoming emission regulations the iGENERATION Series II as well as the flexible emission automation systems are a safe investment for the future. < > The AVL iGENERATION Series II comprises of AMA i60 SII, CVS i60 SII, PSS i60 SII and SESAM i60 FT SII.
