Our Testing Facility, Workbenches & Instrumentation
Located at 8 Station Avenue in Seaton, Victoria, our purpose-built engineering facility provides individual workstations configured for component-level ASIC repair, thermal airflow testing, and 3-phase electrical experimentation.
Equipped for Hands-On Learning
We maintain eight identical, fully equipped stations so that every participant performs all procedures independently.
Digital Oscilloscopes
Rigol 50MHz dual-channel oscilloscopes equipped with 10:1 passive probes for tracing 25MHz high-frequency clock pulses, reset triggers, and serial bus traffic.
Micro-Rework Stations
Temperature-calibrated hot air guns with magnetic nozzles, stereo zoom microscopes, pre-heating plates, and low-temperature lead-free solder pastes.
415V 3-Phase Test Rig
Industrial sub-board featuring transparent polycarbonate covers, individual power analyzers, clamp meters, and Type B RCBO breaker trip simulation.
Immersion Cooling Vat
Single-phase dielectric fluid tank equipped with variable speed pump, brazed plate heat exchanger, fluid temperature telemetry, and viscosity sample testing kits.
Acoustic Testing Box
Dual-chamber sound attenuation box with interchangeable baffle geometry and calibrated Type 2 sound level meters for residential decibel reduction experiments.
Wind Tunnel & Manometer
Test ducting equipped with hot-wire anemometers and differential digital manometers to measure airflow CFM and static pressure drops across various filter media.
Workshop Safety & PPE Requirements
Working around high-voltage power supplies and molten solder requires disciplined laboratory hygiene. All participants receive safety orientation prior to touching live circuits.
- Fume Extraction: Every solder bench is equipped with dedicated active carbon and HEPA fume extraction nozzles.
- ESD Protection: Grounded antistatic bench mats, wrist straps, and conductive floor coatings prevent silicon damage.
- Isolation Switches: Emergency stop buttons at each bench immediately disconnect AC line voltage.
