Testek is pleased to announce a major player in small engines has chosen Testek to design and manufacture a Carburetor Test Stand. Why would a small engine manufacturer hire Testek to produce such a system? The answer is simple Testek has a proven history of providing flow measurement systems to many customers worldwide. One of those customers, Nikki Japan, a large carburetor manufacturer, gave a strong recommendation based on their many years of experience with Testek equipment and service. Over the last forty years, Testek has sold some 20 Carburetor Test Stands to the automotive and industrial industries.
The is a computer-controlled, precise measurement tool, used for measuring air flow, fuel flow, and outlet pressure at various throttle angles in all types of conditions. These operating conditions are simulated at test points that correlate to internal combustion engine operation. High precision measurement of airflow is accomplished by employing sonic nozzles, and high precision fuel flow ensures that fuel density remains constant, resulting in highly accurate test results.
Fuel supply pressure and carburetor outlet pressure measurement accuracy is important for setting the carburetor test points. The Data Acquisition System facilitates averaging of the fuel flow and vacuum measurements at each steady-state test point. The Testek software provides test data in Excel spreadsheet format to facilitate quality control of the OEM carburetors.
Testek’s outstanding past performance ratings will help ensure that we can continue supplying our customers with the best test equipment possible for years to come.
