More stringent emission legislations as well as new types of internal combustion engines such as the H2 ICE are increasing the complexity of engine testing. These elevated requirements will call for special measurement technology to master these challenging operating conditions. AVL's BLOW BY METER, an indispensable instrument with unique performance, meets these challenges. It is designed to be used in a broad range of applications, from small single cylinder combustion engines to high horsepower aggregates. This innovative and flexible device has the widest measurement range on the market and can fit seamlessly into different engine applications from conventional to H2 ICE depending on the chosen variant. Why You Need AVL BLOW BY METER The AVL BLOW BY METER measures the leaked gas that builds up between the gaps around pistons, piston rings and valve guides. These gases enter the crankcase and leak via the crankcase ventilation system. The volume of blow by gas has proven to be a sensitive indicator of the state of the piston rings, pistons, and cylinder walls. It is a valuable tool in both engines under development and engines out of production and already in use. The need for continuous measurement of the blow by flow to monitor the engine condition makes the AVL BLOW BY METER an indispensable instrument for engine testing.
