Engine cell test benches
CERTAM is equipped with many test facilities including 7 wide engine cell tests which may host foreign experimental system and allow dynamic investigation protocols.
For the security, each test bench is equipped with fire sensors (flames, fumes), fuel fumes sensors and automatic fire extinguishing system based on FM200 gas.
