With the support of the Canadian Foundation
of Innovation (CFI), the Government of Quebec and UQAC, ISOLIME
has purchased a certain number of equipments, include, but not limited:
|
Sweep Frequency Response Analyzer
FRAX101.
|
Dehydrating and degassing unit
developed at UQAC
|
|

|
Polarization/Depolarization Current Analyser developed at the UQAC
ISOLIME has also the opportunity of using important research facilities of
the International Research Centre on Atmospheric Icing and Power Network
Engineering (CENGIVRE), located on the campus of the University of
Quebec at Chicoutimi (UQAC), Qc, Canada. The HV laboratory at the UQAC is one
of the largest in Canada, with a very reputed faculty base and available
research support.
Diverse resources are also available on the UQAC’s campus. Additional
resources are also available from other laboratories/research centers, for
example:
- The CIGELE/INGIVRE for HV facilities (350 kV test
transformer, 120 kV test transformer, Modular impulse system up to 200 kV,
short-circuit transformer (up to 2000 A), standard lightning impulse 800
kV @ 60 kJ, Infrared camera, Corona camera, Photomultipliers, High speed
cameras, spectrograph, AFM,…).
- the chemistry laboratories for HPLC, infrared spectrometers,...
- and Aluminun research center (CURAL) and AMIL for mechanical testing
equipments (tensile strength, interfacial tension, DSC,…).
