A year in the making, the purpose built facility at our Thomastown Melbourne lab represents a significant investment and uses a fully automated and custom designed data acquisition system providing highly accurate test results for compliance with Australian and International energy efficiency regulations.   Substantial effort has been expended to ensure tight measurement uncertainties and accurate system calibrations providing dependable and repeatable results.

Included in our R&D support, is the ability for us to easily change the water temperature from 20degC Cold Water to 15degC Cold Water to support both IEC/EU and AS/NZS standards.

The 4 bay facility allows for multiple sample testing and provides a wealth of raw data for manufacturers to fine-tune products so as to achieve the highest star ratings possible.

The opening of this facility demonstrates Austest’s continued support for Australian Industry, importers and international manufacturers.  An open day (by invitation) will be held shortly.  If you are interested in attending or interested in a quote, please ring us or email austest@austest
