Features
Comprehensive Environmental Measurement
Integrated sensors capture air temperature, air velocity, radiant heat flux, and humidity at 46+ points, providing complete cabin climate mapping.
Dual Application
Suitable for both automotive cabin testing and indoor building HVAC systems, enabling cross-industry thermal comfort evaluation.
High Precision & Real-Time Data
ThermDAC software enables real-time PMV/PPD comfort index reporting and statistical data visualization.
Flexible and Modular Design
The manikin disassembles easily at the waist and neck for installation in confined vehicle interiors or building setups.
Realistic Airflow Simulation
Flattened thigh sections and aerodynamic hand shapes ensure airflow around the manikin mimics that of a human occupant.
Wireless and Ethernet Communication
High-speed data transfer ensures stable operation during in-vehicle and laboratory tests.
Fully Jointed Body Structure
Ball-joint connections at shoulders, elbows, hips, knees, and ankles provide adjustable test postures.
Integration Capability
CAD geometry available for CFD and thermal simulation software, enhancing R&D efficiency.
Complete Turnkey System
Delivered with sensors, ThermDAC control software, power supply, laptop PC, and transport chair—ready for immediate use.
