Xenon Test Chamber

Weathering test chamber used for climate aging test with xenon arc lamp

 Highlight
  • Pioneering National Standard Compliance: Beier Labs proudly announces the successful development and upcoming manufacturing launch of China's first xenon test chamber fully compliant with the latest national standard, GB/T 2423.24-2022. Our equipment employs a long-arc xenon lamp as a full-spectrum light source (290–2450nm), allowing for precise simulation and acceleration of product weather resistance and aging. This process quickly yields results that closely mimic natural outdoor exposure. (Key Feature: Full-spectrum 290–2450nm) This represents a significant advancement, as prior designs and research often focused on a narrower 290–1100nm spectrum for many years.
  • 22 Years of R&D Expertise & Customization: With over two decades of dedicated technical research and development experience, Beier Labs offers extensive customization options for our equipment to meet specific customer requirements. We are equipped to bring virtually any experimental testing concept to fruition through our tailored solutions.
  • National Standard Contributor: Our company has played an active role in shaping relevant national standards, including GB/T 2423.24-2022 (Guidelines for Simulated Ground Solar Radiation and Solar Radiation Testing and Climate Aging Testing).
Xenon Test Chamber

Certificate & Standards
CE certification
Standards: GB/T16422-2, ASTMD529, ISO4892-2

Xenon test chamber is an accelerated weathering tester by simulating true environmental conditions. It utilizes xenon arc lamp capable of simulating the full sunlight spectrum to replicate destructive light waves present in different environments. Using a long arc xenon lamp as the light source, it is designed to simulate and intensify weathering and accelerated aging tests, enabling rapid acquisition of near-atmospheric aging test results. By precisely controlling test conditions, this test chamber can simulate various climate conditions in the laboratory and perform repeated tests to validate the reliability of the results, making the xenon test chamber an effective tool for evaluating the weather resistance performance of materials.
Applications
  • Applications
    In the field of materials science, xenon test chamber is used to evaluate the weather resistance, heat resistance, and light stability of various materials.
  • Applications
    In the automotive industry, xenon test chamber is used to test the durability and appearance changes of automotive components, coatings, and interior materials.
Configurations
  • Ventilation cooling system: it is automatically controlled by a temperature controller to regulate the equipment temperature.
  • Spraying system: it includes a water pump, time relay, and adjustable spraying cycle.
  • BPT black panel thermometer: it uses wireless transmission technology to improve the control accuracy.
  • Fiber optic transmission measuring lamp radiation intensity: this avoids the measurement errors caused by temperature.
  • Xenon lamp water-cooling system: a chiller unit is used, and the water can be recycled.
  • Test rack: it rotates around the light source at a speed of 1r/min. Installed with a BPT black panel thermometer or BST black standard thermometer.
  • Timing device: controls the equipment time and automatically shuts down the equipment.
  • Protection device: adopts a circuit linked to the cooling water to ensure the xenon arc lamp operates normally.
Functions
  • Xenon test chamber supports various simulated environmental conditions and accelerated exposure testing.
  • Determine the changes in materials exposed to sunlight under different environmental conditions to evaluate the durability changes after material composition changes, etc.
  • As a weathering and accelerated aging tester, this xenon test chamber allows for rapid obtaining of the results of near-atmospheric aging tests.
Features
  • Xenon test chamber utilizes xenon arc lamps capable of simulating the full spectrum solar radiation to replicate destructive light waves present in different environmental conditions.
  • The interior chamber is made of advanced stainless steel sanding plate, and the exterior of chamber is made of SUS304# stainless steel with an oil-finished surface.
  • An imported intelligent temperature and humidity controller is used for temperature control, featuring PID adjustment, quick self-tuning, and the ability to set various parameters. The temperature is displayed directly in digits for easy reading.
  • Features a filter light observation window, harmful gas exhaust port, bimetal black panel thermometer, and multiple safety protection devices.

Generally, they are categorized into two main types: flat-panel xenon test chambers and rotating drum-type test chambers!

  • Flat-Panel Xenon Test Chambers: These are suitable for testing flat samples where extremely high uniformity of light exposure isn't the primary concern. They are simpler to operate and typically more cost-effective. These models commonly feature three lamps positioned at the top.
  • Rotating Drum-Type Test Chambers: These are ideal for testing various sample shapes that demand superior uniformity of light exposure and higher testing precision. They offer robust functionality and are generally priced higher. These units typically feature one lamp located in the center.

Yes, absolutely. We can customize and enlarge the working chamber dimensions to design a walk-in xenon test chamber specifically tailored for your requirements! For a detailed design proposal, please contact our sales and technical departments for further discussion.

These model numbers refer to the power output of the xenon lamp (e.g., 4000W and 6500W, assuming kW was a typo and should be W for lamp power) in the aging test chamber.

  • If your testing needs primarily involve small-area samples of indoor products, and you don't require exceptionally high light intensity or uniformity, the 4000W xenon test chamber would be a suitable choice. This model typically employs air cooling.
  • If you need to test outdoor products, or if your requirements for light intensity, uniformity, and the overall testing environment are higher, we recommend opting for the 6500W xenon test chamber. This model commonly utilizes water cooling, which effectively controls the lamp temperature and ensures the stability and accuracy of your test results!

Our equipment is manufactured under our proprietary Beier brand. While we produce our own equipment, if a customer specifically requests it, our machines can be made compatible with imported filters and original Atlas imported lamps.

The number of samples that can be accommodated varies with different test chamber models and designs, and can be adjusted based on customer requirements! For instance, our BR-XD6500, with a working chamber size of 750×750×750mm, can test up to 67 standard samples, each measuring 70x150 mm! The actual number of samples tested can be less than or equal to 67 pieces.

Pricing varies depending on the specific model, working chamber dimensions, and technical precision parameters. For a detailed technical proposal and the most competitive pricing, please contact our sales department at sales@beierlab.cn
