Environmental Test Chamber

Two-Zone Thermal Shock Test Chamber

The Two-Zone Thermal Shock Test Chamber (also known as a High-Low Temperature Impact Test Chamber) is engineered to evaluate the resilience of products under extreme and rapid temperature variations. Utilizing a basket transfer system, it swiftly moves test samples between pre-set high and low temperature zones, simulating sudden environmental changes. This chamber is critical for identifying potential failures caused by thermal expansion and contraction in materials and components, ensuring product reliability in industries such as electronics, automotive, aerospace, and defense.

Two-Zone Thermal Shock Test Chamber – High-Speed Temperature Cycling

Compliant Standards

Our Two-Zone Thermal Shock Test Chamber meets rigorous international and industry-specific standards, including:

  • GB/T 2423.22 (Chinese National Standard)
  • IEC 60068-2-14 (International Electrotechnical Commission)
  • MIL-STD-202 (US Military Standard for Electronic Components)
  • MIL-STD-883 (US Military Standard for Microcircuits)
  • JESD22-A104 (JEDEC Standard for Temperature Cycling)
  • GJB 150.5 (Chinese Military Standard)
  • EIA-364-32 (Electrical Connector Thermal Shock Testing)

Applications

This chamber is widely used for validating product performance under extreme temperature fluctuations in:

  • Electronics & Semiconductors: PCB soldering integrity, IC packaging defects, passive components, connectors, and consumer devices (e.g., smartphones, batteries).
  • Automotive: ECU, sensors, LED lights, plastic components, and other parts subjected to seasonal temperature variations.
  • Aerospace & Defense: Avionics, military communication equipment, weapons systems, and material reliability under rapid descent/ascent conditions.
  • Research & Quality Assurance: Material development, prototype validation, and compliance testing in certified laboratories.

Key Features

  1. Ultra-Fast Transition Time: Achieves temperature switching in ≤10 seconds (exceeding the ≤15s requirement per GB standards), delivering intense thermal shock effects.
  2. Extreme Rate of Temperature Change: Samples are directly exposed to stabilized extreme environments, ensuring a significantly higher temperature change rate compared to conventional rapid-rate chambers.
  3. Rapid Temperature Recovery: Both high and low temperature zones remain stable at all times, enabling quick recovery after each test cycle and ensuring high testing efficiency.
  4. Energy-Efficient Design: Unlike three-zone chambers, the two-zone design eliminates the need for large pre-heating/pre-cooling zones, reducing power consumption and offering a compact structure.
  5. Superior Testing Accuracy: A fully sealed chamber minimizes thermal exchange, ensuring exceptional temperature stability and repeatability.
  6. Advanced Construction:
    • Inner Chamber: Fully welded SUS#304 stainless steel (1.2mm thick) for durability and corrosion resistance.
    • Outer Casing: 1.5mm cold-rolled steel with anti-scratch brushed, polished, and painted finish.
    • Insulation: 100mm thick polyurethane foam for maximum thermal efficiency.
    • Sealing: Double-layer silicone rubber door seals.
    • Observation Window: Multi-layer tempered glass with built-in heating wire to prevent frost formation.
  7. Safety & Control Features:
    • Programmable timer, over-temperature protection, power-cut alarm, data logging, emergency stop, and test duration display.
    • Customizable testing programs and optional real-time monitoring capabilities (with intermediate zone return).
