MDLT-ONE

Micro Dilution Tunnel

The MDLT-ONE is designed to sample particulate emissions using the partial flow dilution method. A small portion of the total exhaust is diluted with HEPA* filtered air to create a constant flow rate through particulate filters to collect Particulate Matter (PM). Compliant to the latest regulations, the new MDLT-ONE is very compact and offers faster response by the use of high precision venturi flow meters and a piezo actuated valve.

*HEPA: High Efficiency Particulate Air

Segment: Automotive Test Systems

Division: Emission Measurement Systems

Manufacturing Company: HORIBA, Ltd.

Small package

Heated filter system and flow controllers installed in a single rack. Swivel connection of tunnel section to cabinet allows flexible installation. Auto filter changer* can also be mounted in the main rack for space efficiency.

Automatic calibration software enhances accuracy and ease of use

The MDLT-ONE series performs automatic calibration by flowing air in-series through the two venturi flow meters and correcting any difference to zero in the software. This can be included into an automated sequence within a test template.

Integrated Operating Platform

HORIBA ONE series systems employ a common use interface, “HORIBA ONE PLATFORM” offering future expandability and ease of integration into Test Automation Systems.

*1, For the filter face velocity in the regulations (less than 100 cm/s), the flow rate for the φ47 mm filter must be 65 standard L/min.
*2, Input the amount of PM collected on filter to calculate PM mass. It is necessary to input engine output (kW) to calculate the PM mass engine output (g/kWh).
*3, Please contact HORIBA, when you order.
