Airbag Inflator Testing

Smart decisions in milliseconds

The product range for inflator testing includes:


Microsys Inflator Test Tanks lead the industry in terms of features and productivity.

The SureFire Inflator Test System performs a safe and adjustable firing of an inflator within a test tank. SureFire typically records data from one or more pressure sensors along with squib current and squib voltage readback. High speed data acquisition of squib voltage and current enables a detailed analysis of ignition and energy transfer, critical to understand the underlying reasons for inflator performance.

Inflator Test Tanks - iTanks

Microsys Inflator Test Tanks lead the industry in terms of features and productivity.

The Microsys iTank includes a submarine style door for easy access without the need for power tools. A water cooling jacket allows for very fast test cycle times by rapidly bringing the tank wall temperature back to ambient level.

Main sizes are 28.3L (1 cubic foot) and 60L, but there are also several other popular sizes.

Microsys iTanks are designed to operate both independently or in conjunction with the SureFire Inflator Test System.

More information about how Microsys iTanks may be right for you is available here.

SureFire Inflator Test System

The SureFire Inflator Test System performs a safe, controlled firing of an inflator within a test tank. Squib firing pulses are easily adjusted within SureFire and can be quickly retrieved by selecting the appropriate test profile. SureFire will typically record data from one or more pressure sensors along with squib current and squib voltage readback. High speed data acquisition of squib voltage and current enables a detailed analysis of ignition and energy transfer, critical to understand the underlying reasons for inflator performance.

SureFire customers for inflator testing include most major airbag and inflator manufacturers. These customers benefit from the highest levels of test productivity in the industry.
