AES offers lab design support—including guidance on optimized layouts, safety prioritization, and power requirements—so you can get the most out of your environmental testing.
Read NowIndustry-leading temperature chambers for temperature cycling have powerful compressors, temperature ranges from -70°C to 180°C, reliable conditioning systems that control temperature within ±0.5°C, various cooling system options, and remote control to monitor testing from anywhere.
Read NowRamp rate refers to how quickly a test chamber can heat up while pull-down relates to how fast it can cool off, with an industry average 4.4°C/minute pull and 2.5°C/minute ramp, respectively.
Read NowConducting maintenance on the electrical, refrigeration, humidity, circulation, and control systems will help you identify and address any issues in your test chambers before they become expensive problems.
Read NowIf you’re looking to upgrade (or replace) your test chambers’ controllers, there are a few options to consider, including retrofitting with remote monitoring technology.
Read NowGenerally speaking, the base price of walk-in test chambers starts at around $85,000, but that number increases depending on size, performance, customizations, and the type of build.
Read NowWater demineralizer cartridges, stainless steel shelf clips, silicone sponge gaskets, access port plugs, and nichrome wire ceramic heaters are the most commonly replaced test chamber components. Look for signs of wear and tear and contact a reputable manufacturer to find replacement parts.
Read NowEnvironmental test chambers should typically be calibrated once every six months to a year, but this frequency depends on project size, case use, and volume capacity.
Read NowLearn about how various items from the Star Wars Galaxy might be tested, including lightsabers and spacecraft, and whether you can actually carbon freeze something using a temperature and humidity chamber.
Read NowDry air and dry nitrogen purges are used in temperature and humidity and temperature-only environmental test chambers to pull moisture out of the workspace so that tests are run with the proper RH conditions.
Read NowCompanies who own test chambers show a strong return on investment, but you may choose to outsource testing, at a rate of around $1500 per day, if you don’t have in-house capabilities.
