      The high and low-temperature impact test chamber is designed for reliability testing of industrial products under both high and low temperatures. It is used to evaluate the performance of components and materials in industries such as electronics, automotive, aerospace, shipbuilding, and weaponry, as well as in higher education and research institutions, under alternating cycles of high and low temperatures. The main features include: Excellent Conductivity: The alloy cable, made by adding rare earth elements and copper, iron, silicon, and other elements from China, undergoes special processing to achieve a conductivity 62% higher than that of copper. After this process, the cross-sectional area of the alloy conductor is increased by 1.28 to 1.5 times, making the cable's current-carrying capacity and voltage drop comparable to those of copper cables, effectively replacing copper with new alloy materials. Superior Mechanical Properties: Compared to copper cables, the rebound performance of the high and low-temperature impact test chamber is 40% lower, and its flexibility is 25% higher. It also has excellent bending properties, allowing for a much smaller installation radius compared to copper cables, making it easier to install and connect terminals. The special formulation and heat treatment process significantly reduce the creep of the conductor under heat and pressure, ensuring that the electrical connections of the alloy cable are as stable as those of copper cables. Reliable Safety Performance: The high and low-temperature impact test chamber has been rigorously certified by UL in the United States and has been in use for 40 years in countries like the United States, Canada, and Mexico without any issues. Based on advanced American technology, the test chamber has been tested and inspected by multiple domestic institutions, ensuring its reliable safety. Economic Performance Savings: When achieving the same electrical performance, the direct procurement cost of high and low-temperature impact test chambers is 20% to 30% lower than that of copper cables. Since alloy cables are only half the weight of copper cables and have excellent mechanical properties, using alloy cables can reduce transportation and installation costs by more than 20% in general buildings and over 40% in large-span buildings. Using high and low-temperature impact test chambers will have an immeasurable impact on building a resource-efficient society. Excellent Anti-corrosion Performance: When exposed to air at high temperatures, alloy cables immediately form a dense oxide layer that is highly resistant to various forms of corrosion, making them suitable for harsh environments. Additionally, the optimized internal structure of the alloy conductor and the use of silane cross-linked polyethylene insulation material extend the service life of alloy cables by more than 10 years compared to copper cables.

    1. Dust adhering to the condenser can cause the high-pressure switch of the compressor to trip and issue false alarms. Therefore, dust attached to the cooling grid of the condenser can be removed with a vacuum cleaner every month, or by using a hard-bristled brush after turning on the machine, or by blowing it off with a high-pressure air nozzle.2. The area around the machine and the ground at the bottom should be kept clean at all times to prevent a large amount of dust from being sucked into the unit or reducing equipment performance and causing accidents.3. When opening or closing the door or taking samples from the test chamber, do not touch the sealing strip on the door.4. The core of the constant temperature and humidity test chamber - the refrigeration system should be inspected once a year. Check for leaks in the copper tubes and at each joint and interface. If there are any, inform the manufacturer.5. The humidifier and water tank should be cleaned frequently to avoid scaling and affecting steam emission. Clean them after each test. Timely descaling helps extend the lifespan of the humidification tube and ensures smooth water flow. When cleaning, use a copper brush and then rinse with water.6. The distribution room should be cleaned and inspected more than once a year. Loose nodes can put the entire equipment in a dangerous working state, burn out components, cause fires, alarms, and endanger lives.7. The dry and wet bulb wicks should be checked frequently. Replace them promptly if they become hard or dirty. It is recommended to replace them every three months.8. Inspection and maintenance of the water circuit. The water pipes in the water circuit are prone to clogging and leakage. Regularly check for leaks or blockages. If found, remove them promptly or notify the manufacturer.

  • Two reasons why the constant temperature and humidity test chamber does not refrigerate Two reasons why the constant temperature and humidity test chamber does not refrigerate
    Jun 10, 2025
    One reason 1. Because the temperature of the constant temperature and humidity test chamber cannot be maintained, observe whether the refrigeration compressor can start when the test chamber is running, and whether the compressor can start when the environmental test equipment is running, indicating that the circuit from the main power supply to each compressor is normal and the electrical system has no problem. 2. There is no fault in the electrical system. Continue to check the refrigeration system. First, check whether the exhaust and suction pressure of the low temperature (R23) compressor of the two sets of refrigeration units are lower than the normal value, and whether the suction pressure is in the vacuum state, indicating that the refrigeration dose of the main refrigeration unit is insufficient. 3. Touch the exhaust pipe and suction pipe of the R23 compressor with your hand, and find that the temperature of the exhaust pipe is not high, and the temperature of the suction pipe is not low (no frost), which also indicates that the R23 refrigerant in the host is insufficient. Another reason: 1. The cause of the failure has not been determined, and further confirmation is made in combination with the control process of the constant temperature and humidity test chamber. The test chamber has two sets of refrigeration units. One is the main unit, and the other is the auxiliary unit. When the cooling rate is high, both units operate simultaneously at the beginning of the temperature maintenance phase. Once the temperature stabilizes, the auxiliary unit stops, and the main unit maintains the temperature. If the R23 refrigerant leaks from the main unit, its cooling efficiency will be significantly reduced. During the cooling process, both units operate simultaneously, ensuring stable temperatures and a gradual decrease in cooling rate. In the insulation phase, if the auxiliary unit stops, the main unit loses its cooling function, causing the air inside the test chamber to rise slowly. When the temperature reaches a certain level, the control system activates the auxiliary unit to cool down, after which the auxiliary unit stops again. The cause of the production failure has been identified as a low-temperature (R23) refrigerant leak from the main unit. Upon checking the refrigeration system for leaks, a crack was found on the valve stem of the hot gas bypass solenoid valve, measuring about 1cm in length. After replacing the solenoid valve and recharging the system with refrigerant, the system returned to normal operation. This analysis shows that the fault diagnosis follows a step-by-step approach, starting from the 'external' aspects and moving inward, then focusing on 'electricity' and finally on 'cooling.' A thorough understanding of the test chamber's principles and operational processes is essential for accurate fault diagnosis.
