Linde PROSPEC™ Gases and Gas Delivery Systems Provide Reliability and Accuracy for Engine Emissions Testing

Oct 10, 2022
Air pollution may not always be seen, but we all too often see its effects. The pollutants that enter ambient air through tailpipes, chimney stacks and many other sources can also disrupt our ecosystems and contribute to climate change. As a result, engine manufacturers, their suppliers and testing centers need to perform more rigorous emissions analysis.
 
Federal, provincial and state vehicle emission regulations require certification of tailpipe emissions to prescribed levels. These regulations mainly deal with in-use certification for currently owned and licensed on-road vehicles.
 

PROSPEC™ by Linde

Linde is a leader in producing highly accurate calibration gas standards and ultra-pure zero gases for engine emissions testing. As the largest industrial and specialty gases company in North and South America, and one of the largest worldwide, we provide accurate, reliable NIST traceable calibration gases that meet or exceed regulatory standards for your engine bench testing needs.
