Environmental Simulation Thermal Shock Test Chamber 200L Two Slot

1. Product Name and Purpose

2. Product Features

• Robust and Space-Efficient Design
  • The chamber is constructed with a heavy-duty framework, typically made of high-strength steel, ensuring its durability and stability during continuous operation. The exterior is designed to be both rugged and space-efficient, making it suitable for integration into laboratory or production environments. The interior of each slot is lined with a non-reactive and smooth material, such as stainless steel or a specialized thermal insulation coating, to prevent any interaction between the chamber and the tested specimens. The two-slot configuration allows for simultaneous testing of different samples or the comparison of two different test conditions, maximizing testing efficiency. The doors of the slots are engineered for a tight seal, featuring reliable locking mechanisms and heavy-duty gaskets. They also include large viewing windows, usually made of tempered glass with anti-fog and anti-scratch properties, enabling visual monitoring of the testing process without disturbing the internal temperature environment.
• Precision Temperature Control Systems
  • High-Temperature Zone: The high-temperature system can reach temperatures up to +180°C or even higher, with an accuracy of ±0.5°C. It utilizes advanced heating elements and a sophisticated temperature control loop, along with strategically placed temperature sensors. This ensures rapid and uniform heating of the samples, essential for effective thermal shock testing. The system also has built-in safety features to prevent overheating and protect both the samples and the chamber components.
  • Low-Temperature Zone: The low-temperature system can achieve extremely cold temperatures, typically down to -70°C or lower, with an accuracy of ±0.5°C. It employs advanced refrigeration technologies, such as cascade refrigeration, and a well-designed temperature control mechanism. The chamber is equipped with a powerful circulation system to ensure even cold air distribution throughout the slots. Similar to the high-temperature system, it has safety features to avoid overcooling and safeguard the integrity of the testing environment.
  • Temperature Transition: The key feature of this chamber is its ability to rapidly transition between the high and low-temperature zones. The temperature change rate can be as fast as 10°C to 20°C per minute, allowing for a realistic simulation of extreme thermal cycling. The control panel enables users to program and adjust the temperature profiles, including the duration of each temperature stage, the number of cycles, and the rate of temperature change.
• Advanced Instrumentation and Data Acquisition
  • The chamber is equipped with a comprehensive suite of sensors. Temperature sensors are distributed in each slot to monitor the temperature at different locations, ensuring that the samples experience the desired temperature conditions uniformly. These sensors are connected to a state-of-the-art data acquisition system that records and stores all the temperature data. The data can be accessed and analyzed in real-time or retrieved later for in-depth studies. The data acquisition system is highly flexible and can be integrated with external software and databases, facilitating seamless data transfer and analysis. It can also be configured to send notifications and reports automatically, saving time and effort for the users. Additionally, the control panel includes built-in alarms and safety features that alert users in case of any abnormal temperature conditions, power failures, or equipment malfunctions.

3. Specific Parameters

• Volume and Dimensions: With a total volume of 200 liters, each slot is carefully sized to optimize the use of space and ensure proper air circulation and temperature distribution. The external dimensions are configured to fit within a standard laboratory or production area, typically with a width of around 120 to 150 centimeters, a depth of 100 to 120 centimeters, and a height of 180 to 200 centimeters, depending on the specific design and manufacturer.
• Temperature Uniformity: The temperature uniformity within each slot is maintained within ±1°C during both high and low-temperature conditions. This ensures that all parts of the tested samples experience a similar thermal environment, which is crucial for obtaining accurate and reliable test results.
• Temperature Stability: Both the high and low-temperature systems offer excellent temperature stability, with minimal fluctuations over time. This allows for consistent and repeatable testing, enabling manufacturers to compare results accurately and make informed decisions about product improvements.
• Temperature Change Rate: The chamber can achieve a rapid temperature change rate, typically ranging from 10°C to 20°C per minute, depending on the specific requirements and settings. This fast transition capability is essential for simulating real-world scenarios where products may be exposed to sudden temperature changes.

4. Product Functions

• Accurate Simulation of Temperature Shock Conditions
  • The primary function of this chamber is to provide a highly accurate and realistic simulation of temperature shock conditions. By precisely controlling the temperature transitions, it allows users to evaluate how products and components will behave in various thermal stress situations. For example, in the electronics industry, it can test the integrity of printed circuit boards, the performance of microchips, and the durability of connectors under rapid temperature changes. In the automotive industry, it can assess the reliability of engine components, sensors, and control systems that may experience extreme temperature fluctuations during operation.
  • The ability to program complex temperature profiles, including multiple cycles of high and low-temperature shock, is also a valuable function. This can help in uncovering potential weaknesses or failure points in products that may not be evident under static temperature testing. For instance, a product that functions well at a constant temperature may develop cracks or experience performance degradation after several cycles of temperature shock, and this chamber can accurately replicate such scenarios.
• Enhanced Product Quality and Research Capabilities
  • Through comprehensive testing in the chamber, manufacturers can identify and address potential issues in their products. If a product shows signs of degradation or failure under specific temperature shock conditions, appropriate measures can be taken, such as modifying the design, changing the material composition, or improving the manufacturing process. This leads to the development of more stable and reliable products, reducing the risk of failures and recalls. In the research field, it allows for the exploration of new materials and the understanding of their properties under extreme thermal cycling, which can lead to significant scientific breakthroughs.
  • The test chamber also serves as a valuable tool for quality control. By subjecting products to standardized temperature shock tests, manufacturers can ensure that their products meet the required quality and performance standards. This helps in building customer trust and maintaining a good reputation in the market.
