Containerised Test Systems

JTS Ltd specializes in designing and building systems for temperature, humidity, rain, dust and vibration testing, with units ranging from small bench-top chambers to walk-in rooms, and air conditioning units to supply independent test rigs. We work closely with our clients to build test solutions for individual company requirements, often involving innovative approaches. One such project, currently, is for Swansea University’s Centre for Automotive and Power Systems Engineering (CAPSE). The team there are working with major companies to test new battery technologies, not only for the automotive industry but for National Grid and renewable energies too. JTS has to date converted twelve 30 ft shipping containers into specialist self-contained ‘test cells’ for temperature and humidity testing at CAPSE’s Pontypridd site. Battery testing can be highly volatile and to minimize risk in this case, JTS engineers designed an innovative CO2 cascade system, capable of achieving a range of +80 / -40c at high rates of temperature change. As an inert gas, CO2 has a major advantage in this application over alternative refrigerants which are either highly flammable, less efficient or have a far higher GWP (Global Warming Potential). Our relationship with CAPSE is ongoing, providing support and maintenance, and we’re now looking into training USW personnel to carry out simple troubleshooting and maintenance. Working closely with clients ensures the best outcomes for individual test needs, whether the requirement is for standard or bespoke chambers, containerised systems, or walk-in rooms. With experience across a wide range of industries, and a client base including manufacturers such as Dyson, BAE Systems, TRW Automotive and Red Bull, we are ready to help you achieve the best environmental test solutions for your products. Contact us if you have a special requirement, or are interested in knowing more about our containerised systems.
