在终年寒冷的南极，人类文明的唯一痕迹就是矗立在雪地上的塔楼。在如此恶劣的环境下，却仍然有人常年住在这里：冬季9个人，夏季50个人。他们就是德国南极科考队的成员。而他们在这里的住所是你所难以想象的：地基是厚达200m的冰层，墙体是三个90米长的铁制管道，上盖是一个厚厚的雪层。这便是德国南极科考队的科考站：Neumayer 站Ⅱ。
●南极探险的补给基地
德国极地科考站由位于Bremerhaven的Alfred-Wegener极地和海洋研究所运作，建于1992年，与旧有科考站相距仅几公里之遥。自建成以来，这个站点就一直扮演着极地科考（包括地理、气象、以及大气化学等领域）补给基地的重要角色。
●德图烟气分析仪testo 360：忠实战友
在气候恶劣的南极，用于提供热水、发电以及站内供暖的柴油发电机是必不可少的生存工具，所以负责科考站机械维护的工程师们须常年驻守在站内，他们戏称自己为“冬眠者”，而testo 360便是这些“冬眠者”们的忠实战友。Bremerhaven总部的科学和技术总监Saad EI Naggar博士说道：“作为一个致力于环境保护的科考站，其污染排放的水平必须要降到最低，我们希望通过对烟气的定期测量来实现这个目标。”
●经由德图培训
德图仪器为科考站的工程师们提供了很大的支持，对于这一点，大家毫不怀疑。正如Saad EI Naggar博士所说的：“我们和德图仪器在很多领域都有积极的合作，除了给最终用户提供完善的技术和服务支持外，德图还对我们的核心团队进行了了有效的培训。要知道，在一年的12个月里，有超过9个月的时间，电话、邮件或网络是队员们和外界联系的唯一方式，所以，我们必须充分依赖我们的仪器和设备，而我们的仪器设备正是可靠且值得信赖的。”
Testo 360 Provides Valuable Assistance to a German Research Station in the Antarctic
The only hint of human civilization in the Antarctic is the pylons standing only a few meters above the surface of the snow. And yet people live here year round; nine in the winter months and up to 50 in the summer. Their home, three 90 – meter long steel tubes, lies under a blanket of snow and is built on a 200-meter thick ice shelf foundation: Neumayer Station 2
●Supply station for expeditions
The german polar research station, which is run by the Alfred- Wegener- institute for Polar and marine research based in Bremerhaven, was built in 1992, only a few kilometers from the predecessor station. Since then, it has been doing duty as a supply base for expeditions and for research work in the areas of geophysics, meteorolo.
●Testo 360 as a constant companion
Diesel engines which prepare hot water and generate electricity, and whose exhaust is used to heat the station, are indispensable for life in the permafrost. That’s why the constant companion of the so-called “hiber-nators”, the engineers who each live in the neumayer station for a whole year and who are responsible for the technical maintenance of the station. “as a research station, we are committed to protecting the environment, the level of pollution emission should be kept low, explains dr. saad ei nagger. The scientific and technical director at headquarters in Bremerhaven emphasizes “our aim is to achieve this goal with regular exhaust gas measurements.”
●Trained by testo
There was never any question about whether testo instruments would support the engineers: we have had very positive experience with testo instruments in other areas, and testo 360 also provides huge support for the user. Our core team has also been trained by testo AG” according tosaad ei nagger, this is especially important for more than nine months of the year, the only contact our team on the ice shelf has with the outside world is via telephone, email and internet. So you really have to be able to rely on your equipment.
