Testing and calibration
First-class testing facilities
We have the following test facilities available at our UK headquarters:
- Freshwater test tanks
- Saltwater test tanks
- Acoustic pulse test and calibration centre
- Full ocean depth hydrostatic pressure test chamber
- Low temperature test chamber
All testing and calibrations are carried out and certified by our in-house mechanical and acoustic engineers. Through our network of strategic partners, we can also provide EMC testing, environmental testing including high temperature, high humidity and shock and vibration, mechanical load testing and certification.
Acoustic pulse test and calibration centre
Our acoustic test and calibration centre is purpose-built and features acoustically-baffled test tanks, providing accurate measurements through calibrated hydrophones and software designed by our in-house team.
Hydrostatic pressure test chamber
Our hydrostatic pressure test chamber is capable of simulating the huge force that equipment has to withstand when operating in a subsea environment. The chamber has interconnectivity to externally monitor internal equipment and sensors under pressure, with external data recording also available. An overhead hoist allows for loads of up to 500kg to be lowered into the chamber.
Dimensions: 400mm internal diameter 700mm internal length
Temperature: ambient
Operating medium: fresh water
Pressure rating: 6000m ocean depth
- 587 bar = 8500 psi (freshwater)
- 602 bar = 8736 psi (saltwater)
In-depth product testing
As the support arm to applied acoustics, we rigorously test all applied acoustics component parts, such as connectors, electronic housings and transducers, to the required pressure.
This service is also available for customer-owned equipment and components.
