Research and Development

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

Perfect conditions for valid measurement results

The laboratories are not only where products are optimized and newly developed – this is also where all devices are measured according to the applicable standards and guidelines. For reliable performance data you can count on.

The room airflow laboratory

For realistic simulation of room air conditioning: 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 supply conditioned air of up to 14,000 m³/h for this purpose.

The industrial tower

Large ceiling heights are standard in factories, assembly halls and warehouses. So it is natural to have doubts about whether Unit Heaters or diffusers have the corresponding penetration depth to transport the air down to floor level. Kampmann demonstrates the momentum of its devices in the industrial tower: depending on the setting, warm air easily reaches the floor and cold air is distributed evenly below the ceiling before gently descending without drafts.

The system rooms

The two system rooms reproduce a two-axis and a three-axis office layout (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 where 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 measure the extremely quiet Kampmann devices.

The hall room

As impressive as entering the anechoic sound measurement laboratory with its almost oppressive silence is, spending time in the hall room is the complete opposite: sound waves are constantly reflected off the sound-hard wall surfaces, none of which is parallel to the opposite one. This creates strong reverberation, producing a uniform, diffuse sound field that is 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 transmitting 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.
