From the very beginning of the establishment, scientists and engineers of Physical Instrumentation Division (PID) division are engaging with the cutting edge research on different widely used  laboratory instruments. In Bangladesh, research field is expanding and laboratories are increasing faster and faster. For this reason its demands of scientific equipment is increasing. In view of this mind, the primary aim of PID is to develop the laboratory equipment. Besides, PID also conducting some state-of-the-art research on design and development of microcontroller based Automatic Voltage Stabilizer, Smart Control and Monitoring System for Electrical and Electronic equipment using Internet of Things (IoT). Recently, scientist of PID is developing a high efficiency one dimensional multijunction solar cell simulator (MSCS-1d) for cost effective solar panel fabrication.

 

This division has 04(four) sections:

 

Besides the R&D activities, scientists of this division also provides some analytical and consulting service, such as: Physical properties analysis, Photomicrography, offering computer training and software development etc. For research human resource development, they are also involving in student supervision on B.S. and M.S. Thesis

 

 

                                                                                                                Recent innovations of PID scientist

 

 

The topics of PID research include, but are not limited to:

 

 

 

       List of electronic circuits/equipment developed in Physical Instrumentation Division are following:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

R&D activities are solely dependent on sound instrument facilities. The Scientists/Engineers of this division are capable of repairing, maintenance, installation and calibration of scientific/laboratory, biomedical and agricultural equipment.

 

Aim of this work is to repair or brought into working condition of defective/out of ordered instruments which will minimize the purchasing of new instruments. As a result a good amount of foreign currency will be saved.

 

During the period from 1st July, 2014 to 30th June 2017 services were provided to 131 laboratory/scientific equipment (such as: Sterilizer, Temperature humidity control chamber, Orbital Shaker, Autoclave, Digital multi-meter, Digital Balance, Oil free Air Compressor of AAS, Digester, Centrifuge, Relay, Boiler, Stabilizer, Blender, Autoclave machine, Chiller, Computer, Printer, Furnace, Timer, Water bath, UPS (On-line and Off-line), Hotplate, Oven, Digester, Aspirator, Vacuum pump, Magnetic stirrer, Heating mental, Water distillation plant, Photo voltaic, Photometer, Silicon graphics (workstation), Muffle furnace etc.)
