Transportation Exhaust Component and System Level Testing

Comprehensive exhaust component and system level testing from SGS – from catalytic converter testing and exhaust component testing to hot vibration testing.

Highway in the dark
To confirm the compliance and performance of your exhaust system components, accurate testing and data is required. We provide both component and full system level testing services, including catalytic converter testing and exhaust component testing to all OEM specifications, as well as hot vibration testing on individual heavy duty components. Testing can be performed using thermal cycling with our burner systems, engine dynamometer or chassis vehicle dynamometer.

In addition, we can perform vibration testing for the entire after-treatment assembly on our slip-tables. Components can be evaluated using a vast array of test methods, including thermal and vibration durability, heat aging, cone fatigue, weld fatigue, and heat shield evaluation.
