Measurements, tests, commissioning and acceptance

We provide support for the commissioning and the initial operation phases of ventilation installations; we plan and support the execution of ventilation tests for certifying functionality. By means of our comprehensive measurement and testing equipment we execute fire and smoke tests as well as aerodynamic and climate measurements in tunnels.
