DENKweit B-LAB

The DENKweit B-LAB is a desktop tool for measuring the direction and strength of electrical currents. It is easy to use, fast,  non- contact and does not require the user to apply an electrical current during measurement. Data is highly precise, quantitative and in real time so hand held and in-situ options are also available.

The B-LAB can be combined with the DENKweit AI software DENKnetze to automatically identify faults and features. DENKnetze is affordable and easy to use.

Key Features

  • Quantitative magnetic field imaging
  • Non-contact and in real time
  • User friendly DENKweit platform with advanced data visualization and analysis
  • Can be combined with DENKnetze AI software
  • Hand held and in-situ options available

Application Examples

The DENKweit technology is used across a variety of different applications.

Shingled Modules (photovoltaics)

  • Measurement of the distribution of currents in connected Shingled Solar modules
  • Analysis of the quality of individual adhesive points by simply stroking the detector over
  • Quick detection of hidden shunts and other inhomogeneities
  • Optimization of series resistors and Shingle concepts
  • Use in production and free field


Cell Connectors (photovoltaics)

  • Measurement of a solar cell
  • The right busbar is not connected to the cross connector


Batteries (cylindrical cells)

  • Measurement of three cylindrical Li-Ion batteries during a charging process
  • The right battery shows an abnormality
  • The changed magnetic field indicates a locally changed current flow
  • MFI allows the detection of defects in accumulators


Batteries (pouch cell)

  • Measurement of a pouch cell during the charging process
  • MFI makes it possible for the first time to visualise the flow of electricity

Cracks (metal processing)

  • Measuring a crack in the metal with a handheld device
  • Measuring signal 3-4 orders of magnitude via signal-to-noise ratio
  • Live measurements possible
