Welcome to Otech Engineering

Otech Engineering, Inc. operates three wind tunnel test laboratories located in Davis, California performing test and calibration of air speed measurement instruments. This laboratory is accredited in accordance with the recognised International Standard ISO/IEC 17025:2005. This accreditation demonstrates technical competence for a defined scope and the operation of a laboratory quality management system (refer joint ISO-ILAC-IAF Communiqué dated January 2009). Otech is currently conducting wind speed measurements up to 45 m/s, a common range covering most atmospheric wind distributions. Most instruments tested at Otech, such as cup anemometers, propeller anemometers, and sonic sensors, are deployed for measuring atmospheric winds that potentially contribute to wind energy resource. Otech has also tested instruments installed for FAA (Federal Aviation Authority) and even for low-speed HVAC applications.
