Xenon Arc Weathering Test Chamber for Automotive Parts Testing

Xenon lamp weathering test chamber is a comprehensive climate test device, in addition to climate aging test, but also high-light-resistant materials can be tested, that polymer material exposed to simulated sunlight through the artificial spectrum of artificial light down the evaluation Lightfastness of materials

FEATURES

1, Ventilation system: Automatic controlled by temperature controller, and inner chamber cooled by refrigerating system.

2, Back panel thermometer: adopt wired transmission technology, which highly improve the control accuracy.

3, Temperature sensor: PT100 platinum resistance thermocouple.

4, Equip with intelligent temperature and humidity controller, with PID adjustment and rapid self-turning. It can set several parameters to do cyclic test, directly digital temperature display for easy reading.

SPECIFICATION

The Xenon Arc Weathering Test Chamber is a device used to simulate the long-term exposure of materials to sunlight in a natural environment, as well as the effects of changes in light, temperature, and humidity. This type of testing is particularly important for automotive components, as these components must be able to withstand various weather conditions without experiencing performance degradation or appearance damage.

Purpose of Xenon Arc Aging Test for Automotive Parts

Evaluate durability: Determine the ability of materials and coatings to resist aging caused by sunlight.

Quality control: Ensure that the product meets the quality standards set by the manufacturer.

R&D: Assist in developing new materials and improving existing materials.

Compliance: Meet industry standards and regulatory requirements.

Testing process

Light source: Use a xenon lamp to simulate full spectrum sunlight, including ultraviolet (UV), visible light, and infrared (IR).

Temperature control: The internal temperature can be adjusted to simulate different environmental conditions.

Humidity and sprinkler system: Simulate the effects of humid environments and rainfall.

Sample rack: allows for the placement of samples of different shapes and sizes, and is typically rotatable to ensure uniform exposure.

Cycle setting: Different lighting, darkness, heating, and cooling cycles can be set according to actual needs.

Advantages of Xenon Arc Aging Test

Can accurately replicate the lighting conditions in nature.

Can accelerate the testing process and shorten the time to market for new products.

Providing reproducible results can help compare the performance of different materials.

When conducting xenon arc aging testing, appropriate testing parameters should be selected based on specific automotive parts and relevant standards such as ISO 4892-2 should be referenced, ASTM G155 or SAE J2527, etc. This will ensure that the test results are representative and reliable.
