imc MKAS - Cold Start System for Combustion Engines

IMC MKAS is a measuring system comprising of both software and hardware designed  to monitor cold start tests of internal combustion engines.   Suitable for both moving vehicles and test rigs, MKAS takes measurements of an engine's operating parameters.  The evaluation software computes derivative quantities from the raw data, such as speed from the tooth signal, opening times of the inlet and exhaust valves or characteristics such as the starting time and average initial speed.  All data whether measured directly or derived from computations can be mathematically evaluated and displayed in a graphical or tabular format for detailed analysis.

IMC MKAS consists of a central unit, a signal conditioning module and two terminal cartridges including cables.  The measurement signals are captured via standard thermoplugs and banana jacks and are connected to the unit by plugging in the pre-wired cartridges.  This makes it possible to use the same central unit in multiple vehicles while leaving the appropriate sensor cables and their terminal cartridges in each vehicle.
