Temperature Shock Chamber and Temperature Shock Immersion Chambers

Temperature Shock Chambers and Temperature Shock Immersion Chambers

Our temperature shock chamber is designed for conducting highly dynamic thermal cycling tests with precisely defined transfer durations. It enables reproducible and standards-compliant temperature cycles with rapid transitions between low and high temperature ranges. The test specimen is deliberately subjected to thermomechanical stresses realized through abrupt air temperature changes or exposure in temperature-controlled liquids.

The transfer between temperature zones occurs within a defined and validatable time period, ensuring consistent test conditions

and high process reliability. The rapid temperature change effectively tests material stresses, differences in expansion coefficients, solder joints, encapsulations, and structural transitions. The system is therefore ideally suited for qualification, reliability assessment, and service life simulation of components and assemblies in research, development, and quality assurance.

The system is designed for high cycle stability and long-term operational reliability. Precise temperature control, homogeneous air circulation, and optimized insulation and sealing concepts ensure uniform temperature distribution and minimize unwanted temperature losses.

Reproducible test results are achieved while maintaining high energy efficiency.

A wide range of options and expansion possibilities is available to adapt to specific customer requirements.

We are pleased to provide personal consultation to configure the temperature shock chamber optimally for your individual testing requirements.

The unit features comprehensive standard equipment with two viewing windows including test chamber illumination, three insert shelves, and integrated ports for measurement and supply lines. This ensures flexible loading and continuous process monitoring while maintaining high sealing integrity. Both test chambers can be operated independently as standalone temperature chambers. The drive system enables secure sealing against ambient air and guarantees high cycle numbers without defrosting processes or additional auxiliary media. Maintenance requirements and downtime are thereby minimized. A large test basket volume enables testing of multiple specimens per cycle, thus increasing the overall system’s cost-effectiveness.
