2 types of Light Accelerated Aging Chamber exposure

2 types of Light Accelerated Aging Chamber exposure

When the UV aging accelerator tester does aging test, the surface temperature of the specimen is an important exposure parameter, in general, high temperature will accelerate the degradation process of the polymer, the allowable test temperature should be based on the material under test and aging performance evaluation index. Fluorescent UV lamps emit less infrared light than xenon and carbon arc lamps, and the heating effect on the surface of the specimen is basically formed by convection of hot air. Therefore, the temperature difference between the black plate thermometer, the black standard thermometer, the specimen surface and the air in the exposure chamber is small.

The following two UV Aging Test Chamber exposure methods are recommended:


Exposure method 1


Specimen after a period of light exposure, followed by a period of no irradiation (when the temperature changes and the formation of condensation on the specimen) cycle test. Test period in accordance with the relevant standards, such as no specified cycle conditions, the following cycle is recommended.


In the black standard temperature 60 ℃ ± 3 ℃ irradiation exposure for 4h or 8h, then, in the black standard temperature 50 ℃ ± 3 ℃ without irradiation condensation exposure for 4h.


Note: The aging degradation of some polymers (e.g., PVC) is temperature sensitive, in which case an irradiation exposure temperature below 60°C (e.g., 50°C) is recommended to simulate colder climates.


When selecting an irradiation exposure followed by condensation exposure procedure, the allowable irradiation or condensation exposure period is zuì short of 2 h to ensure that the conditions are balanced across the exposure periods.


Exposure method 2


The specimen is continuously exposed to irradiation and has a cycle test with regular water spray. The test period is specified in the relevant standards. If not specified, the following test conditions are recommended.

The secret of stable UV Accelerated Weathering Tester operation 1, the specification of  UV Accelerated Weathering Tester  placement site and location: in the installation of equipment in the site is not just the size of the site, in addition to the temperature, humidity and other conditions must be met, the site can not store flammable and explosive and fire-prone hazardous materials, when the site to meet the requirements, the installation location of the equipment also has requirements, as the equipment in operation will be Generate heat dissipation, so you can not stack items around the equipment, so as not to affect the test results, in addition to the site around the emergency treatment facilities such as fire extinguishing, in order to avoid unwanted accidents lead to serious consequences. 2, try to avoid improper operation: such as improper operation, the light may lead to inaccurate results, due to excessive weight may lead to failure, etc., so the operator should mas...

How to eliminate the safety hazards of xenon lamp test chamber? How to eliminate the xenon lamp test chamber safety hazards? xenon lamp test chamber has the following safety protection systems. 1. refrigeration system: leak detection test, compressor overheating, compressor overpressure; 2. Humidification system: heating tube dry burn, abnormal water supply, water shortage alarm; 3. Circuit system: over temperature protection, fan motor overheating, overall equipment under phase / reverse phase, overall equipment timing, leakage protection, overload and short circuit protection. When installing the xenon lamp test chamber, pay attention to the following points to ensure personal safety: 1. Power supply: The power supply of the equipment uses a three-phase five-wire system, and the equipment cable is four-core wire, three phase wires, and one neutral wire. Please pay attention to the distinction between neutral wires. Because part of the load and control system of the equipment is singl...

Tips for choosing an Ozone ageing chamber

图片
Tips for choosing an Ozone ageing chamber : The choice of environmental temperature: some products need to be tested in a temperature environment of minus degrees Celsius ozone resistance test, some are tested at room temperature, and some are tested at high temperatures. Users just need to understand their own products to test the common test temperature can be. It is important to note that testing at room temperature is more common. Conditions can be placed in the Ozone aging chamber premises equipped with air conditioning systems, it is recommended that users choose the test chamber with a refrigeration system when purchasing, to avoid the summer test, the temperature is too high resulting in inaccurate results. Chamber volume selection: because the Ozone aging chamber chamber materials and ozone concentration control accuracy difficulties will have a corresponding increase, so as long as the test products can be accommodated on, too large chamber will only cause waste.
