TEMPERATURE SHOCK CHAMBER – Aralab

Advanced Thermal Shock Testing with Dual-Chamber Design

The FitoTerm 150 CTE2 is composed of two independent chambers (hot/cold) in the same structure, allowing test objects to be exposed to ultra-fast temperature changes through an internal elevator that conducts the objects between the two chambers. This sophisticated testing chamber enables rapid temperature transitions with transfer speeds of less than 5 seconds between zones.

Superior Temperature Control and Performance

In the FitoTerm 150 CTE2 temperature shock test chamber, the upper chamber supports heat tests up to 200°C, with heating by means of electrical resistances and air circulation. The lower chamber is designed for cold tests from -75°C to +60°C, featuring dynamic ventilation of 2m/s for homogenization and temperature uniformity throughout the 125-liter internal volume.

Precision Engineering and Reliability

The thermal shock test is performed by transferring DUTs (Devices Under Test) between two internal chambers using an electromechanical elevator system. The chamber incorporates a mechanical deceleration system to eliminate vibrations during tests, ensuring accurate and reliable testing conditions. The test space dimensions of 410 mm x 470 mm x 650 mm accommodate a wide range of test specimens with a maximum cradle weight load of 50 kg.

Professional Power and Control

The FitoTerm 150 CTE2 operates on a 3-phase electrical supply (3PH, N/PE, 400V, 32Amp) and is designed for professional laboratory and industrial testing environments. This robust power configuration ensures consistent performance and reliability for demanding thermal shock testing applications.
