ABOUT ESSOM

Introduction
ESSOM was founded in 1986 by a group of engineers. Our main objective was to market DeVilbiss paint spray equipment. A few
years later the company began to manufacture engineering education equipment. Over the years, paint spray equipment from Binks,
Ransburg and Nihon Parkerizer were added. At the same time, engineering education equipment has grown from import substitute to
worldwide export.

Location
Our head office is located on Taksin road in Bangkok metropolis while our factory is in Nakornpathom which is 30 km to the west. The
factory comprises machine shop, fabrication areas, electrical shop, paint shop, design office, test area, finished product warehouse,
show rooms, training room and factory administration office, covering a total area of ove r 2000 square meters.

Head Office Factory

Quality assurance
ESSOM has been certified ISO 9001 Quality Management System
since 1999. The scope of certification includes Design and
Manufacturing of engineering equipment as well as Sales and Service
of both engineering education and paint spray equipment. All our
engineering education products have been designed by our
experienced and well qualified engineers. Prototypes must pass
design test standards before market introduction. Parts and materials
are sourced from approved supplier/material lists and must pass
receipt inspection. In-process inspection is carried out at key
manufacturing stages with final inspection after completion. All new
products must pass strike design test before market introduction.

Products
Development of new products is based on market requirements as
well as trend in educational innovation and technological
development. Most of our equipments are available for inspection
and/or test run in our factory show room. Popular items are normally
deliverable from stock. In addition, we also build special equipment
for research and other purposes to meet client special requirement as
well as providing assistance in planning new laboratory.
All products are supplied with completed operating manuals.
Software with software manual are also available as optional items.

Services

We maintain over 20 well trained engineers and scientists and a

number of experienced technicians readily available to provide
services such as equipment set up, insta llation commissioning
and operation.
ISO Certificate
Market
With our global marketing network of agents and sales partners we
have now supplied our equipments to over 50 countries.

We are committed to strive towards excellence and to make ESSOM a

worldwide recognized brand name in the field of technical education.

MOVING FORWARD

Dear Customers,

Welcome to ESSOM 2017 brief catalog. Here products are arranged in sub-groups for quick reference. A relatively
new product group – Mechanical Engineering Test Sets (MM500) are expanded and overlap with other Theory of
Machine (MM) and Structures (ST) products. Also Structures (ST) products are now modified to include computer
assist sets. New products are added in Thermodynamics (TH), particularly in heat exchangers and refrigeration.

With the ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System, we are committed to th e Continuous Improvement policy
particularly on product design and appearance as well as instruction manual improvement to be among the world
leaders in this field of engineering education. We appreciate your continued suggestions and supports to help us serve
you better.

Please visit our website www.essom.com for more information.

Thank you

The advice I am giving always to all my engineering
students and colleagues is above all to study the lab
apparatuses overwhelmingly the state-of-the-art ESSOM
lab apparatuses for instructional purposes and students
utilisation are quantum leaps upward. I am confident that
ESSOM will not only be soon at par with the world-wide
giant manufacturers in this arena but will have leapfrog
products for science and engineering research as well.”

UNISA has purchased all its Thermodynamics equipment
from ESSOM, and herewith we would like to express our
satisfaction with the products.
The equipment is effective; experiments are repeatable
with a high degree of accuracy and a great deal more
value for money.
We have commissioned some of the equipment and are
now in the process on commissioning the Steam Power
Plant. The Boiler is working well.
I am pleased with the progress made so far. I hope we will
have a good working relationship, throughout the
considerable long life-span of this equipment.

TESTIMONIALS
The steam power plant trainer acquired by the Mapua
University is instrumental in conveying engineering
knowledge and skills to our engineering students.
Modern instrumentation and controls as well as data
processing were also integrated to its system.
experiments prescribed by our ME program are covered
by the equipment specifications and would require less
effort to modify the system to adopt to other requirement.
therefore, the equipment enhances our capability to do
research and provide a real life experience to our
students.
With this regard, we are greatly satisfied with the quality
and as well the after sales service of the manufacturer.

I have been using the essom laboratory equipment since
2011 and found these up to my full satisfaction. The
significant parameter is the value of money. The
equipment is cost effective and don’t compromise the
quality at any level. Quality sensors are used for precise
measurements in all of equipment while rugged and
durable parts increase the effective life of equipment.
Another advantage is the possibilities of equipment to be
tailored as per specific requirements/ situations. Their
aftersales service and response to queries is
exceptionally surpassing, at least, in our region of the
world. I am satisfied with the products I have used so far.

SOFTWARE AND MANUAL
ESSOM software is LabviewTM based and is available for most equipments. It is classified as Learning Software for equipment without live
signals and operating software for equipment and live signals

LEARNING SOFTWARE
The software provides information on equipment description, relevant theory, experiment procedures, typical data, to give required
calculations upon entering input data manually and to give hard copy printout.

SAMPLE LEARNING SOFTWARE

OPERATING SOFTWARE
There are two levels of the software i.e. Computer Interface and Computer Control.

For Computer Interface, sensors analog outputs are converted to digital by an interface module. The software is programmed for the
relevant digital signals to be displayed and analyzed by computer.

For Computer Control, an interface module, software program and motor are used in place of relevant manual adjustment. The software
data are displayed, analyzed and controlled by computer.

There are cases where only some relevant live signals are available and some data are entered manually. This is sometimes called
Computer Assist.
