ITECH is the leader of power testing solutions, and we sponsors ETSEIB Motorsport in Spain, Motorsport E (Electrical Car Race Team) from the Polytechnic University of Catalonia. 

Polytechnic University of Catalonia (Catalan: Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya), currently referred to as Barcelona Tech and commonly named just as UPC, is the largest engineering university in Catalonia, Spain. It also offers programs in other disciplines such as mathematics and architecture. UPC's objectives are based on internationalization, as it is one of Europe's technical universities with the most international PhD students and the university with the largest share of international master's degree students. UPC is a university aiming at achieving the highest degree of engineering/technical excellence and has bilateral agreements with several top-ranked European universities. UPC is a member of the Top Industrial Managers for Europe network, which allows for student exchanges between leading European engineering schools. It is also a member of several university federations, including the Conference of European Schools for Advanced Engineering Education and Research (CESAER) and UNITECH.

ETSEIB Motorsport designs and competes a Formula Student car. Formula Student competitions take place every year around the world on summer. The team has participated in different European Formula Student events over the last 9 years. The number of electric participated normally is variable from 20 to 40. The last year, ETSEIB Motorsport attended Formula Student Czech Republic, Formula Student Italy and Formula Student Spain, and won 1st, 6th, 12th respectively. With these results, ETSEIB Motorsport became the first Spanish team that ever won a Formula Student competition. 

At ITECH, we strive to deliver quality, performance and value beyond comparison. This takes focus, dedication and continuous improvement. Motor racing is an excellent example of a sport that requires the same type of discipline and focus to achieve success. Itech sponsors ETSEIB Motorsport with our high performance DC power supply and electronic load, and help Motorsport achieve good scores.

Itech provides high-power DC electronic load IT8816C to do battery test. IT8800 is with the high resolution of voltage and current: 0.1mv and 0.01mA, adjustable current rising/descending speed 0.001 -2.5A/μs when 0-48A and 0.01-2.5A/μs when 0-480A. IT8800 test the battery capability in CC mode. In testing procedure, the battery voltage, discharge current, discharge time and discharged capability will display on the front panel.

ITECH DC power supply IT6942A also helps to test the battery in the racing car. And ITECH launched a new high-power DC power supply IT6500 series last year, the IT6500 series offers a full-featured high-performance power test solution. With fast response these DC power supplies provide users with a new level of power supply performance. From 800W to 30 kW, the whole series include more than 100 models. The maximum output voltage and current is up to 1000V and 1200A respectively. IT6500C provides fast and seamless switching across current outputting and sinking, combined with IT-E500 power dissipater unite, it is an ideal solution for EV braking current’s regenerative battery test.

Motorsport E (Electrical Car Race Team) also thanks ITECH to allow them to test the cells and modules in the new batteries. If you are interested, you can see our facebook homepage:
