This is a powerful xenon arc aging test chamber ideally suited for 3D sample testing. It features three genuine U.S.-imported xenon lamps with daylight filters, fully meeting various international testing standards.

The BGD 867 Cabinet Xenon Test chamber can accommodate 25 standard test panels, equipped with both spray function and relative humidity control inside the working chamber.

Operators can freely set all required test parameters (irradiance energy, exposure time, black panel temperature, spray duration, relative humidity of working-room, etc.) through the human-machine interface, while monitoring the machine's operating status in real time. All operational parameters during testing can be directly downloaded to a computer via USB interface.

Characters

◆ Three xenon lamps imported from America can offer higher irradiance energy, meet with all test standards’ requirements.

◆ Can set and control automatically the relative humidity of working room.

◆ The test procedures can be programmed freely; and up to 6 predetermined procedures can be saved in one time. Every procedure includes up to 10 segments setting data.

◆ Can set the cumulative energy (total irradiance energy) obtained by sample to finish a test procedure.  

◆ With front spray function, can set spray time and spray interval time.

◆ Irradiance energy can be accurately controlled. The "Closed-Loop" control system can automatically compensate the change of light intensity caused by ageing or other factors.

◆ Users can easily calibrate and adjust the irradiance or the black panel temperature by themselves.

◆ With high precision Pt100 temperature sensor. Black panel temperature is auto-controlled during the whole process.

◆ Alarm function for protection: Over-temperature of BPT or BST, big irradiance difference, auto shut-down protection when opening door，spraying water shortage, big error of humidity, large deviation ofworking room temperature, air pressure protection of lamp cooling air.

◆ Touch screen and user-friendly operation interface allow operator to set the test parameters and monitor all the test process easily.

◆ Specimen mounting and evaluation is fast and easy with unique slide-out specimen tray.

◆ Real-time data can be collected and recorded. The incidental USB connector allows users to copy the test data into a USB drive, achieving unattended operation.
