Air conditioning technology

The ET 620 Air conditioning and ventilation system is equipped with a modern building management system for control. This corresponds to the state of the art for large air-conditioning systems and is advantageous when presenting complex learning content. The experimental plant is controlled by the PLC via touch screen. The user interface provides real-time visualization of the state variables in the h-x diagram.
Wind power - technology with a future
The utility of modern wind turbines is as varied as the theoretical principles required for their development. With GUNT, all subject areas - energy generation from wind power, plant control, aerodynamics, gear technology, machine monitoring - can be deepened in theory and practice.
Practical laboratory experiments are completed by a free » E‑Learning course.

GUNT Fluid Line - fundamentals of fluid mechanics

Remote teaching and learning
GUNT Fluid Line
GUNT offers the FLUID LINE series of innovative devices for the fundamentals of fluid mechanics. With the GUNT Fluid Line you can also carry out lab experiments: remote and digital.
How does that work?
Laboratory experiments are possible with sufficient distance via screen mirroring technology:
the experiment is carried out on one end device or directly on the base module. On the other end devices, such as notebook, smartphone or tablet, the experiments can be followed at a sufficient distance. Screen mirroring gives you access to ongoing experiments on up to 10 end devices.
