Altitude Test Chamber
Aircraft and its components are subject to extreme pressure and climatic conditions during flights. These parameters have a significant influence on the functioning of individual components, and they must be monitored and measured for safety reasons. CME Altitude chamber allow for the testing of aerospace components in an environment with controlled pressure, temperature and humidity parameters. An altitude of 100,000 feet [10 mbar] can be simulated in the test space.

Guided Wave Radar Level Transmitter
2291
The 2291 Guided Wave Radar level transmitter is designed for continuous level measuring of conductive or non-conductive liquids, pulps and solids. The 2291 level gauge operates based on the well-known TDR (Time Domain Reflectometry) principle. Micropulses are sent along a probe guide at the speed of light. As soon as the impulse reaches the surface of the medium, it is reflected back to the electronic module. Level distance is directly proportional to the flight time of the impulse.

Sensor
VL53L1
The VL53L1 is a state-of-art Time-of-Flight (ToF) laser-ranging miniature sensor. Housed in a miniature and reflowable package, it integrates a SPAD (Single Photon Avalanche Diodes) array, physical infrared filters and optics to achieve the best ranging performance in various ambient lighting conditions, with range of cover glass options.Unlike conventional IR sensors, VL53L1 uses ST’s latest generation direct ToF technology which allows absolute distance measurement whatever the target color and reflectance. It provides accurate ranging up to 4m and can work at fast speed (60Hz), which makes it the fastest miniature ToF sensor on the market.With patented algorithms and ingenious module construction, VL53L1 is also able to detect different objects within the Field-of-View with depth information (histogram) at 60Hz. Scene browsing and multi-zone detection is now possible with VL53L1, thanks to software customizable detection array for quicker “touch-to-focus” or mini depth-map use cases.
