Understand emissions. Comply with limits.
Reproducible emission data as a basis for research, development, and homologation.
Stricter emission limits, new pollutant classes, and increasing requirements for measurement accuracy are fundamentally changing vehicle development. AIP offers a comprehensive portfolio of emission measurement systems for this purpose – from mobile RDE-PEMS to laboratory systems for gas, particle, evaporation, and brake dust measurements. All systems are ISO 17025 calibratable, legally compliant, and designed to meet current and future standards (Euro 7, China 7). This means they provide a reliable basis for type approval, research, and industrial quality assurance.

CVS – The international gold standard for exhaust gas dilution and type testing
In the field of homologation of vehicles with ICE or hybrid drive concepts, CVS (Constant Volume Sampling) technology continues to represent the gold standard in terms of exhaust gas dilution and volume flow measurement. In addition to gas conditioning, the CVS system also performs sampling of the gas sample for downstream gas analysis. The CVS system provides highly precise volume flow measurement and volume determination as a basis for determining the mass of the gas components contained or the particle load present in the exhaust gas. Critically operated Venturi nozzles guarantee robust system operation and ensure maximum measurement accuracy.
