Backpack PEMS: Robust Data Solutions for Small ICE Applications

backpack-PEMS

Measures CO, CO₂, NO, HC, PM, and PN for Small ICE Engines

What is GlobalMRV’s Backpack?

One of the most flexible PEMS solutions conceived of in the last decade, Backpack measures mass-flow real-driving emissions in real-time. Using proprietary software and research-backed flow calculation methods, Backpack PEMS delivers large volumes of data in even the harshest and most isolating conditions.

Introducing the most flexible PEMS in decades. The Backpack will go where no other PEMS, iPEMS, or mini-PEMS has been able to go before.

More Flexibility, Less Set-Up, and Faster Results
Introducing GlobalMRV’s Backpack PEMS

How does GlobalMRV’s Backpack work?

Finally, a compact solution that delivers huge results. Whether testing lawnmowers or construction equipment, GlobalMRV’s Backpack is the first technology of its kind to help test small internal combustion engines (ICE) on and off the road.

We test it all: snowblowers, weed whackers, generators, leaf and debris blowers, chainsaws, push and riding lawnmowers, and much more.

Best of all, Backpack PEMS is built with your safety in mind. In case of a difficulty or emergency, a safety breakaway connection easily allows the wearer to separate from the equipment.

Powered by LabVIEW©-based proprietary software and supported by design and operational engineers with over 30 years of experience in the emissions sector, GlobalMRV’s Backpack PEMS delivers accurate and reliable PEMS flow data, all while reducing the need for bulky testing equipment.

Online, phone, and email support are included in the warranty with each Backpack purchase
