Imes’ well-known EPM types (EPM-Peak, EPM-XP, EPMXPplus and EPM-XPplus-vibro) are battery powered, compact and lightweight handheld devices for 2– and 4– stroke diesel engines that convince with their ease of use, robustness and high accuracy. The new generation is a unique further development, that offers one common hardware for all EPM types. This enables a simple upgrade from peak pressure indicator EPM-Peak up to engine analyser EPM-XPplus-vibro. The user can purchase a licence file for an upgrade to a higher version and it is not necessary to send the device back to Imes. The collected data of all EPM types can be displayed and evaluated on the EPM visualization software.
Via USB port the device will be connected to a PC and the visualization software identifies the EPM type and activates the corresponding monitoring functions. Depending on the instrument peak pressure, pressure- and combustion behavior, performance data as well as valve time will be evaluated and analyzed. The created measurement files can be sent to the superintendent in the shipowner office who is able to download the visualization software from the Imes homepage free of charge. If the PC is connected to the Internet, the EPM will automatically check if there are any firmware- or visualization software updates. The user can install the updates which are free of charge. Further new features are a larger and more comprehensive display and two additional function keys for an easier menu handling.
