CEL Aerospace Test Equipment

CEL Aerospace Test Equipment designs and builds engine test cells, test benches and data systems for the aviation industry. The company is based in Canada. It has over 35 years of experience in turnkey engine test cells and specialised test equipment.

The company says it has delivered more than 1,500 projects. It also says it has a global network with locations in North America, Europe and Asia. This gives customers fast access to parts and technical resources.

Its engine test cells come in fixed and mobile versions. They cover APU, turboprop, turboshaft, turbojet and turbofan engines. They also cover industrial engines and new engine technologies. The company says its test cells are approved by major manufacturers and can test more than one make and type of engine. It also has wide experience in upgrading existing test facilities.

CEL Aerospace also designs and makes accessory test stands. These test equipment for many engine systems and components. The universal stands cover a wide range of fuel, oil and pneumatic components. They are built to the specifications of major engine makers.

The company makes its own data acquisition and control system, called CELDAS. It is made for aviation MRO, production and development work. It collects and processes data in a fast and accurate way. The system uses a distributed design to cut wiring runs. It produces as-found and as-left calibration reports with all channel setup details.

The company supports a wide variety of engines in its test beds. Examples include the GE J85, the Pratt and Whitney PW100, the T53 and the Pratt and Whitney Canada APS5000. Its customers include MROs and airlines, engine makers and military and government groups.
