The Laboratory

The laboratory equipment in the Electrical Engineering Department provides the necessary in-depth experience and training of students in electrical, electronic and computing equipment as well as experimental techniques and skills in the use of modern laboratories.

The Electromechanical Training System equipment of Lab Volt combines a modular design approach with computer-based data acquisition and control to provide unparalleled training in electromechanical systems.

This equipment is oriented towards competence requirements which includes electricity fundamentals (i.e., dc power circuits), single-phase and three-phase ac power circuits, power transformers, three-phase transformer banks, dc machines, three-phase rotating machines (induction machine and synchronous machine), and power factor correction.

The system features the Dynamometer/Power Supply, and the Data Acquisition and Control Interface, and state-of- the-art USB peripherals that greatly enhance the learning experience of students.

The AC Power Transmission Training System equipment of Lab Volt combines a modular design approach with computer-based data acquisition and control to provide unparalleled training in ac power transmissions systems to students having a basic knowledge in power technology (dc power circuits, single-phase ac power circuits, and single-phase power transformers). The system features the Data Acquisition and Control Interface, Model 9063, a state-of-the-art USB peripheral that greatly enhance the learning experience of students.

The PLC and Electro-Pneumatics Trainer gives the students a hands-on experienced in programming PLC and integrating it to pneumatic devices and other I/O devices available in this trainer. The students may create their own simulation experiments on the freeware provided by the MELSEC, a Mitsubishi Electric PLC Series and apply the same to this PLC trainer which is powered by the Mitsubishi Electric F-Series.
