UV Aging Test Chamber
1. Introduction
UV aging test Chamber is designed for evaluating the resistant performance of non-metallic materials, organic materials (plastics, paints, coatings, rubbers, etc.) under the specified conditions such as sunlight, raining, and other climatic conditions. It creates a man-made testing environment imitating the natural light source such as sunlight and other damages in the nature, such as rain and dew damage, to impose on the materials and to assess the degree of color changing and fading under the accelerated environment conditions.
The UV aging test chamber is equip with UV fluorescent lamps to simulate the effects of short-wave UV part of sunlight on specimen, and built-in condensation and water spray systems to simulate the effects of rain and dew on the specimen.The temperature is controlled and adjustable throughout the test cycle.
