Darrera expands laboratory capabilities by adding a high-end wind tunnel

Darrera expands its laboratory capabilities with the recent acquisition of a high-end wind tunnel, which will allow to calibrate and to certificate wind equipment and to carry out internal aerodynamic testing and also upon request.

The incorporation of this new tool represents a firm step towards the goals set in Darrera’s growth strategy, allowing the company to broaden its services portfolio in the calibration area.

The Eiffel-type wind tunnel can be used to calibrate and to certificate Pitot tubes and hot-wire, propeller, wind turbine and cup anemometers in the wind speed range of 0 to 25 m/s. The additional external nozzle makes it possible to calibrate instruments with a larger diameter, such as ultrasonic anemometers, etc.
