Environmental Test Chambers - Climatic Chambers

Laboratory Equipment Manufacturing

Bionics Consortium Pvt. Ltd.

Purchasing a product that becomes damaged within a few weeks or even after the first use is risky due to factors such as temperature, humidity, and vibrations. Standards and reliability have become basic requirements today, since business can be done from the most remote areas. For example, from hot countries to cold ones, salt in a warm range will cause soil effects, which must be considered during development and design phases. Additionally, through packaging, transportation, and storage operations, different stress levels may further damage or limit the functionality of the product.

Environmental test chambers find their applications in various fields like insect and biological research, electronics production, and polymer testing, among others. Bionics Consortium manufactures environmental chambers and climate test chambers based on customer needs and supplies them worldwide at affordable prices. These chambers are strongly built and come equipped with modern devices ranging from crude benchtop cabinets to walk-in rooms with large capacity for storage.

Customized Environment Chambers Manufacturer in India

Customized equipment is always good; however, we at Bionic Consortium take care in creating environmental chambers that will best match your research needs best. Thus, our level of customization is defined as designing one single tailored unit along with alteration of the system through available options. Working directly with engineering allows our clients to build their environmental test chamber most effectively. Supported over years, we bring in professional engineers who help provide customers with successful research test chamber solutions. Custom manufacturing involves putting together a test chamber after providing architectural, dimensional, and temperature (heating, cooling, or freezing) requirements.

What is a Test Chamber?

A test chamber is an enclosed area designed for performing endurance, stability, and even practical tests on equipment, products, or chemicals under controlled conditions. It mimics environmental conditions where it can be set to create certain fluctuations such as temperature, humidity, and altitude. Also, they can be made to apply stress up to certain levels on the product in the case of inertia or vibration destructive impact test chambers. One of these tests done in test chambers includes the burst test, where the resistance pressure of a sample cardboard is tested before it breaks.

These are few Test Chamber Purposes:

  • Preparing products for additional testing.
  • Stand alone testing for material combinations.
  • Stress screening for prototype stage issues.

Types of Tests

Temperature testing is by far the most standard general product stress test since temperature changes causes either expansion or contraction of product under test. The rate of temperature fluctuation depends on the type of product being tested. The operating temperature range is from -80°C to 250°C, or -112°F to 482°F. It is primarily a process used to detect internal defects of products, especially for moisture, leakage causing oxidation and rusting.

  • Accelerated ageing testing uses ambient conditions to hasten aging in new items that would normally deteriorate with time. Some common tests under this include temperature, humidity, shake and vibration.
  • Confluence Testing combines temperature and humidity testing with vibration testing involving rapid temperature change accompanied by changing humidity which shows how the product behaves when in transit or being moved from one place to another.
  • Thermal shock testing demonstrates product performance during temperature changes as well as reveals bonding material durability.
  • Altitude testing assesses the performance of vehicles, computers and electronic parts for high-mountain and air transport packed under low pressure, high temperatures, high altitudes among others.
  • Humidity Testing is similar to water splash and rain water tests using waterproof enclosures with self-contained recirculation. It is used in testings, climatic humidity being referred to as a climatic humidity test chamber.
  • Electrodynamic vibration & shaker systems conduct shock, vibration & stress analysis if various products fail; many countries demand Electrodynamic Vibration Test Chamber for the emission of electromagnetic waves from a product; it’s done on production volumes of a product
  • Cyclic corrosion testing is where corrosion is accelerated more than it normally does under natural environmental conditions thus mostly employed by auto industry this can i) submerge ii) dry or iii) spray the material. This test involves multiple exposure methods, making it relatively complex.
  • Salt Spray Test exposes sample to salt spray/fog; sample stays in constant continuous indirect fog/spray effect.
  • Climactic Testing simulates all types of weather known so far to determine how much abuse a given product can take before breaking down. Climactic Tests encompass many other types such as temperature, humidity, sand, dust, corrosion etc.
  • Vacuum Testing is performed on equipment meant to be deployed in space and processes using vacuum like vacuum drying or film coating.
  • The purpose of cytogenetic testing is preparing in-situ and non-in-situ cell preparations for slide drying tests. Therefore duplication of environmental conditions for chromosome propagation by controlling temperature and humidity is crucial towards better chromatogram appearance check. The result of chromosome analysis is affected by the conditions under which the methyl acetate or ethyl acetate fixative is removed.
  • Stability testing evaluates a drug’s quality and longevity. This is normally affected by factors such as temperature, humidity, and light. It also provides instructions on how to handle and store the medicine, when it needs to be reanalyzed, and for how long it will last. There are other tests that are done like accelerated tests, intermediate tests, freeze and thaw tests, bulk holding tests, post-opening period tests among others which are usually carried out most of the times. Excursion testing is a test which depends on time whereby products are exposed to temperatures outside normal conditions thus conditions leading to excursions cannot be predicted. Environmental stress testing or stress testing ensures that products react or perform according to new factory specifications.

Industrial Applications

  • Auto industry: Test chambers in automotive provide an artificial space that simulates possible conditions vehicles may encounter throughout their life span including parts used in them too.Test chambers can be used by engineers who want to speed up the process of finding out what materials will endure under certain circumstances.

    Aerospace industry: Test chambers are used in aerospace engineering mainly because they have strict SAE standards for atmospheric condition compliance. Three things considered critical when testing aerospace equipment include quality, reliability, safety. Aerospace manufacturing calls for compliance with many regulations and requirements from different bodies.

    Pharmaceutical industry: The main forms of pharmaceutical testing include steady state, accelerated aging, shelf life & expiration date. Pharmaceuticals companies just like those in aerospace have very strict rules governing how they produce their stuff. Medicine testing is one area where no mistakes can be made at all.

    Battery industry: Battery test chambers help determine what happens when batteries undergo heat, vibration, and humidity. HASS & HALT forms of stress tests subject product through various failure modes. Exposing batteries to characterization plus evaluation is quite difficult due them being delicate placed. To ensure quality, batteries should be tested under every possible condition ranging from altitude simulation to thermal shock.

Why should you use Environmental test chambers?

Some of the benefits derived from carrying out environmental tests include shortening the time taken to develop a product, increasing its quality and reliability, estimating how long it will last under test and reducing costs which in turn raises revenues/profits for an organization.

Pre-Engineered offers various standard sizes as well as custom-designed units that will fit your testing requirements. Please provide detailed application information for appropriate selection assistance by our Product/Application Engineers.

  • Thermal and Humidity Chambers for Sea Level and High Altitude Testing
  • Deep Cold Chamber with temperatures as low as -120°C
  • General High Temperature Convection Ovens with temperatures up to 704°C
  • Altitude Chambers for simulating altitudes of up to 2,00,000 feet
  • Rain Chambers and Dust Chambers for Talcum powder usage during testing

Designs for test chambers

The designs for test chambers are dependent on the tests being conducted and can vary in size to suit different manufacturers’ needs. Present-day calibration involves technological settings that allow for immediate data collection and condition readings, which can then be adjusted by operators during the process. Chambers that have stood the test of time keep an even temperature throughout their enclosure while also having ducts and electrical controls. Most test chambers perform one or more types to cut down costs and save time – these include cycle testing (temperature & humidity), stress endurance/vibration testing among others such as HALT (highly accelerated life testing).
