Thermal Shock Test Chambers
To test the resistance to extreme environments, we utilize thermal shock test chambers here at Environment Associates. Thermal shock chambers are special chambers that take your product from a hot chamber to a cold chamber, creating thermal "shock." In most cases, this process will cause rapid expansion or contraction of the item due to the extreme change in temperature. Through the use of these test chambers, we can discover faults in workmanship and design, weak components, or poor metal viscosity at extreme temperatures. Thermal shock chambers essentially, then, provide optimum stress on the item to either bring out or rule out possible weaknesses in composition, design, or manufacturing so that the item can be perfected before it is introduced to the market. There are several kinds of thermal shock chambers, including liquid-to-liquid, air-to-air, and three-zone chambers. Liquid chambers use hot and cold liquids to test the resistance of your product, while air chambers move the item between hot and cold dry air environments. Three-zone chambers are the same as these, but they allow for exposure to room temperature between stints in hot and cold air environments. We can help you decide which testing is best for your product. For more information on our thermal shock test chambers, call us today at 818-709-0568 or 818-998-0653 in our LA County/Chatsworth offices.
