AOIP Micro-Ohmmeters are applying in Earth bonding and Metallization tests
- Customer: AIRBUS aircraft part production suppliers
- Goal: riveting door test / verify earth bonding
- Equipment: OM16
- Application: earth bonding and metallization.
- Measure under 10A with high resolution 0,1µohm.
- Small diameter kelvin test probes.
- Software is used in order to proceed to test onsite , save values and download when back to the office.
- Reproducibility: All parts of an aircraft, from flight commands to the undercarriage must be tested in earth bonding and continuity.
- All aircraft sub manufacturers must follow the rules
- Customer: EUROCOPTER (EADS group)
- Goal: verify that no electrostatic charges is stored on a particular points. NO CHARGE = NO EXPLOSION
- Equipment: OM16
- Application: earth bonding and metallization. Metallization is performed between several points of the aircraft or helicopter.
- Metal part: Test under 10A (not more than 10A)
- Composite part : Test under 1A (< 1A)
- For convenience, the OM16 has been modified to offer a removable top: It was easier to use in small volume as a cockpit of an helicopter.
Aoip Micro-Ohmmeters are applying in Carbon brush control
- Customer: Motor manufacturer
- Goal: control of carbon brushes
- Equipment: 2 x OM16 + Kelvin test probes
- Application:
- On a motor when current is crossing the brushes, a temperature rising can occur and the carbon brushes can melt, the resistance value must be very low.
- With OM16, a test can be performed on manufacturing process, threshold values are programmed and if one of them is crossed, the beeper indicates it to the operator.
- Test installed on a production site
AOIP Micro-Ohmmeters are applying in Welding lead control
- Customer: PSA, Renault
- Goal: cable test between power supply and the welding clamp of robot / preventive maintenance
- Equipment: OM16
- Application:
- The resistance measurement allows to determine the state of wear of cable. In this way it is possible to replace only the cable damaged.
AOIP Micro-Ohmmeters are applying in Coil test
- Customer: ITT Automotive
- Goal: coil test of solenoid valve
- Equipment: OM16
- Application:
- The value of coil resistance must be located between two values. Two thresholds are setup, on the production line when test is performed if the operator hears a beep, the product is rejected.
AOIP Micro-Ohmmeters are applying in Quality test
- Customer: LEGRAND
- Goal: circuit breaker quality test
- Equipment: OM21
- Application:
- Check whether the resistance of each pole of the circuit breaker is in the specified values.
- Test in end of production line
AOIP Micro-Ohmmeters are applying in Length cable test
- Customer: NEXANS
- Goal: verify the resistance of cable coil
- Equipment: OM21
- Application:
- Determine the real length of cable
- Before the shipment
Calculation:
L = Rm / RL
Rm= measured resistance
RL= linear resistance
The linear resistance is
knew by manufacturer.
AOIP Micro-Ohmmeters are applying in Maintenance
- Customer: RTE (Network Electricity Transportation France)
- Goal: Bonding / Earthing in substations
- Equipment: OM10 and OM16
- Application:
- In substations, bonding and earthing connections must be regularly measured to ensure safety, i.e. to achieve and maintain low resistance joint: Copper earthing systems are found on every equipment in substations and must be regularly controlled, as well as the electrical connection between components that must remain at the same potential.
