Tests & measurement capabilities ENOTRAC has the capabilities to validate theoretical calculations by means of field tests and measurements. All test and measurement campaigns are prepared and planned meticulously. Thanks to our extensive network of contacts in the industry, we can coordinate and deploy the right team to perform the measurements according to plan, even under difficult conditions. Measurements are carried out using calibrated equipment from well-established manufacturers, motivated personnel and optimised time schedules. The test results are promptly analysed, assessed, and submitted in an appropriate format.
