Numerous measured variables that can be measured with standard sensors must also be acquired in the high-voltage environment. Find out here how, for example, accelerations, pressures, moisture, can be reliably measured.
Comprehensively analyzing fuel cell drives using measurement technology
When people talk about hydrogen-powered vehicles, they usually mean a fuel cell drive. This generates the electricity required to drive the electric motor directly in the vehicle from the hydrogen tank. Although the chemical reaction occurs with just a few substances, certain conditions must be met for an ideal result. These include the temperature as well as the quality of the reaction components supplied. Comprehensive measurements – some of them requiring high-voltage safety – must be carried out to ensure that the fuel cell drive can be operated as efficiently and safely as possible.

High-voltage-safe acceleration measurement in HV batteries
In the development of battery-powered electric vehicles, tests on high-voltage components must be performed in accordance with applicable standards and norms. To verify an electric vehicle for various national markets, accelerations inside and outside the traction battery must be measured during drop tests. If the HV battery does not pass the test according to the requirements – for example, because it is too severely damaged by the impact – further optimization is required. Green Testing Lab, a service provider in the field of battery testing, performs combined, synchronous measurements in special test environments using measurement technology from CSM.
