At FKFS, we use three powerful climate test benches to simulate realistic environmental conditions and control individual test scenarios.
As well as regulating air temperature and humidity, we can also add water to the air flow and the wheels for rainwater management investigations.
Our testing competencies at a glance:
Hot Climate Testing
- Design and testing of cooling systems
- Heat protection investigations
- Air conditioning studies with solar load
- Thermal Comfort with a Thermal Comfort Manikin
- Durability investigations under aerodynamic load
Cold Climate Testing
- Heat up tests for passenger compartments and cabins
- Tests for window defrost according to EU 2021/535/Annex VI
- Tests for window defog according to EU 2021/535/Annex VI
- Weathering according to DIN 75 220
Water Management Tests
- Sealing and imperviousness testing under the influence of aerodynamic load
- Wiper functionality and wiping quality according to EU 2021/535/Annex IV
- Contamination of the air intake when driving in the rain
Conclusion: Whether it's desert heat, freezing cold, or heavy rain – we test to ensure that motorhomes remain reliable, safe, and comfortable even under extreme conditions.
