Research and Development

Reliable performance data you can count on. Since 2008, we have operated the Research & Development Center (FEC), which is equipped as a multifunctional facility across 2,000 m².

Perfect conditions for valid measurement results

In the laboratories, products are not only optimised and newly developed – all devices are also measured here in accordance with the relevant standards and guidelines. For reliable performance data you can count on.

The room airflow laboratory

For the realistic simulation of the air conditioning of rooms: walls, floor and ceiling can be heated or cooled independently of one another. Structural features can be replicated. The result is detailed findings on airflows and comfort.

The multi-purpose laboratory

At the heart of the multi-purpose laboratory is the chamber test rig for standard-compliant measurement of fan and resistance curves as well as of filters, dampers and ducts. Two climate simulation systems provide conditioned air of up to 14,000 m³/h for this purpose.

The industrial tower

In factory, assembly and storage halls, large ceiling heights are standard. This can raise doubts as to whether Unit Heaters or diffusers have the corresponding penetration depth to transport the air down to floor level. Kampmann demonstrates the thrust of its devices in the industrial tower: depending on the setting, warm air easily reaches the floor and cold air is distributed evenly beneath the ceiling before gently descending without draughts.

The system rooms

The two system rooms form a two-axis office and a three-axis office (axis dimension = 1.35 m). In them, customer projects can be simulated and measured or product demonstrations can be held. In product development, these are the rooms in which prototypes are tested. The room airflow laboratory later measures the performance values of the pilot series.

The sound measurement laboratory

Pssst! 300 mm of concrete, 400 mm of rock wool and glass wool, as well as 450 mm wedge absorbers ensure absolute silence in the sound measurement laboratory. The room needs these conditions in order to be able to measure the extremely quiet Kampmann devices.

The hall room

As impressive as entering the soundproof sound measurement laboratory with its almost oppressive silence is, being in the hall room is just the opposite: sound waves are constantly reflected from the acoustically hard wall surfaces, none of which is parallel to the one opposite. This creates strong reverberation, producing a uniform, diffuse sound field, ideal for determining the sound power of Fan Coils and other products. The partition wall integrated into the hall room separates the test rig into a source room and a receiving room. The building acoustics measurements possible here are an ideal addition to the portfolio of possibilities in the field of acoustic measurement.
