What are the Benefits of Walk-In Testing Chambers?
What is a Walk-in Test Chamber?
Whether you’re just now learning about them or are curious to learn more, Associated Environmental Systems has a full range of walk-in chambers. These prefabricated walk-in chambers are designed for large items needing tight-tolerance environmental controls. Similar to other variations of environmental test chambers, they simulate specific environmental conditions, such as temperature and humidity, to ensure precision and reliability.
Available Walk-In Chambers
At AES, we offer a wide range of walk-in chambers, from walk-in temperature chambers, walk-in humidity chambers, and stability walk-in chambers to performance cycling walk-in chambers., for various industries. Depending on your need, each one supports testing regulations and requirements.
Stability Walk-In Chamber
If you need to run tests constantly for long periods, a stability walk-in chamber can help. These chambers are ideal for most industries, from healthcare to food and beverage. These steady-state chambers commonly reach up to 1,122.6 cu ft but can easily be customized to your specifications.
Temperature Cycling Walk-In Chamber
Performance chambers support iterative testing by simulating fluctuating conditions to ensure comprehensive product evaluations They also come in various sizes, allowing for temperature-only and temperature-and-humidity testing. These chambers can be available in extended temperature ranges, reaching up to +150°C, and customized by integrating a wide range of power packages to increase these chambers' rise and pull-down rates.
Panel Walk-In Chamber
Gain the most flexibility with a panel-constructed walk-in chamber. Free-supporting and cost-effective, these chambers can easily be built on-site and interchanged to meet your needs. The construction is made of polyurethane-injected core with a polyurethane frame for a highly dense, 2.5 pounds per cubic foot substrate that is 101 millimeters thick. Panel walk-in chambers are best for temperatures ranging from -65°C to +85°C (-85°F to +185°F) with relative humidity as high as 85%, although they can be customized.
Structural Walk-In Chamber
Always made custom, structural build walk-in chambers require thorough engineering and planning time. For complex testing projects that require quick temperature rates, high humidity, and explosion-resistant applications, these walk-in chambers are optimal with the support of their wielded-steel structural frame. Temperatures typically range from -73°C to +538°C, and relative humidity ranges from 10-95%.
What are the Walk-In Test Chamber Features?
Stability Walk-In Chamber
Medical equipment has to meet high standards before going to market. Walk-in chambers are essential to ensure equipment can meet performance expectations in hospitals, dentist offices, and more. Their ability to run for long amounts of time at a consistent temperature and or humidity level ensures that the device under testing can withstand extreme conditions over time and not fail.
Performance Cycling Walk-In Chamber
The food and beverage industry is expected to create and distribute products that can withstand fluctuating temperatures, from extreme heat to extreme cold. A performance cycling walk-in chamber can provide reassurance that a product can do well within a variety of conditions, and our extended temperature range options give industries, including the food and beverage industry, the opportunity to understand how your product will do in transport getting from the facility to grocery stores, restaurants and more.
Panel Walk-In Chamber
The automotive industry is rapidly changing, and the call for new and improved EVs is high. A panel walk-in chamber from AES can allow automotive companies to test the vehicle's durability and have the flexibility to meet evolving needs. This type of chamber can adapt, allowing you to test different products at various conditions.
Structural Walk-In Chamber
Known for long-term durability, a structural walk-in chamber is ideal for industries such as aerospace that want to test a product’s ability to withstand quick temperature changes, different altitudes, and more. You can feel assured that heavy or oversized products will be accurately tested within these chambers.
