Frequently Asked Questions
Have Question? We are here to help
What is a benchtop test chamber
A benchtop environmental chamber is a compact test chamber designed to control environmental conditions such as temperature and, depending on the configuration, humidity. Benchtop chambers are commonly used for laboratory, research, development, reliability, stability, and quality-control testing.
What are benchtop environmental chambers used for?
Benchtop environmental chambers are used to evaluate how products, components, materials, and devices perform under controlled environmental conditions. Common applications include temperature testing, humidity testing, reliability testing, stability testing, product development, and environmental conditioning.
What is the difference between a benchtop environmental chamber and a floor model chamber?
The primary difference is chamber size and footprint. Benchtop chambers are designed for smaller test volumes and can be placed on a laboratory bench or integrated into a rack system. Floor-standing chambers provide greater test volume for larger products or larger quantities of samples.
What types of testing can be performed in a benchtop environmental chamber?
Benchtop environmental chambers are available for a range of applications, including temperature, humidity, stability, salt spray, and thermal cycling testing.
