WTC-100

WTC-100 is a wind tunnel controller device to control the air velocity in a chamber-like wind tunnel or card rack. The WTC-100™ helps automate thermal characterization of heat sinks, boards and components in a wind tunnel or card rack testing for different fan tray configurations. It has two independent sensors for determining air temperature and velocity to facilitate rapid feedback of the airflow inside the test chamber. The controller communicates with a PC through an RS-232 port, enabling the user to fully automate air flow testing. Uni-sensor based control and measurement enables the user to control the air flow anywhere inside the test chamber. The flow range, step increment and the dwell time are set from the stageCONTROL™ application software by the user.

• Fully automatic controller for components, heat sinks, and card rack characterization
• Easy flow setup
• Feed back control to maintain air velocity in the test domain +/- 0.5% of the set velocity
• Control velocities from 60 to 10,000ft/min depending on the system fan tray
• Measures temperatures from -10°C to 120°C
• WTC-100™ saves testing time by facilitating automatic air flow control and measurement
• 115V AC input power
• Dimension is (L X W X H) 13.8” x 10.4” x 4.5”
