How Do Smart R&D Department Use Testing to Qualify a Filter Product?
Companies can spend millions of dollars on a faulty product. The testing that can be conducted before releasing a product into the market could save the company millions of dollars. A corporate research and development team may not have the facilities to test for all of the specifications that their product would have to meet. The research and development team may also not be aware of all of the standards that their product should meet.
A research and development team contracted IFTS to test their filter under different temperatures and also by adding constituents to the test fluids. The team was impressed by IFTS’ ability to use fuel icing tests and the depth of their knowledge in the testing and standards area.
The research and development team was extremely satisfied with the results of IFTS. The team’s design is now being produced in the hundreds of thousands for different divisions in the company. The group stated that IFTS tests are competitively priced and that the rigs are designed to complete almost any filtration test.
IFTS uses rigorous test equipments and validation process resulting in:
- Stability of operating parameters
- Real world settings in a test for a more reliable product for application.
- DFE varies the flow rates of the liquid to mimic the flow fatigue of a system, the temperature can also be altered.
