Rise in stringent emission norms, especially with respect to automotive industry to prevent the environmental impact is expected to drive the USA testing equipment market.
The trend is to develop test equipment and its implementation to detect the emission levels in accordance with the law. The permissible NOx emissions from a diesel vehicle have dipped 10 times through 6 legislations (Euro 1 to Euro 6).
There are emission standards that every vehicle must follow. The vehicle emission test system is used to test whether the vehicle follows the required standards of the industry.
Moreover, test equipment and related software can help in detecting the emission level of passenger cars and improve fuel efficiency at the same time.
Also, the US Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHSA) established a national program comprising new standards intended to reduce Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions and improve the fuel economy.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has also set GHG emissions standards under the Clean Air Act to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases.
Hence, the regulations about vehicular fuel consumption and emissions will boost the demand for the test equipment market.
Rising demand for leak detection in water and wastewater management applications across the USA is expected to drive market growth over the forecast period.
The United States is one of the highest consumers of water in the world. Approximately 80% of the water and wastewater treatment industry is owned and managed publicly in the country.
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) emphasizes on the improvement of water and sewage services, especially in the municipal wastewater treatment area, and plans to invest an estimated capital investment of about USD 600 billion toward its improvement over the coming two decades.
Adoption of advanced leak detection technologies and instruments is also likely to gain traction in other sectors, such as oil and gas, aerospace, pulp and paper, food and beverage, and power generation.
Moreover these industries need to monitor the leak and unwanted issues which involves use of testing equipments. This has led to increased usage of testing equipments in various sectors of the market.
In addition, the increased focus on modernizing the processes and operations in industries increased the demand for testing equipment.
The demand for OBD testing has increased in recent years, owing to the self-diagnostic capability of OBD equipment.
OBD provides complete control over the engine. In addition to detecting vehicle faults, OBD tools also offer emission control by providing early warnings about potential component failure.
The troubleshooting properties of OBD-II allow users or technicians to detect vehicle faults.
With the help of OBD tools, the user can read the status of the engine and diagnose the problem himself, rather than going to the auto shop to detect the problem.
Consumers tend to prefer application-based wireless devices, such as smartphones. Testing tool developers have developed various applications to work with OBD-II systems.
For instance, Actron (US), a company that provides repair and diagnostic equipment, has released an application called Torque Pro for mobile devices that will allow users to perform vehicle diagnostics using their mobile phones.
This application works wirelessly by connecting to the OBD-II serial port using Bluetooth technology. Torque Pro is also used to monitor the performance of the vehicle.
