Applicable industries
The Xenon Accelerated Weathering Test Chamber - ToronXTC-6500H is widely used in industries such as paint, automotive, and plastic manufacturing to evaluate the weather resistance of various coatings. It is designed to simulate the effects of full-spectrum sunlight, high temperatures, and humidity on materials like hull paint, marine waterline paint, polyurethane wood paint, UV-curing wood paint, and more. The chamber is essential for assessing the durability and performance of coatings, ensuring that they meet the national standards for outdoor weathering, including colorfastness and aging resistance testing. Typical applications include testing for paint coatings, automotive components, plastic, wood products, and adhesives.
Key Features
- The xenon light source and original filters, made in the United States, simulate the full spectrum of sunlight with greater realism and efficiency. The stable light source ensures consistency and reproducibility of test data.
- The drum-shaped sample holder rotates automatically, ensuring uniform irradiation energy distribution across all test panels within the chamber.
- Fully automatic irradiation energy control system (using the sun-eye control system) offers precise stability, compensating for energy fluctuations caused by lamp aging or other factors. The energy control range is wide:
- 0.30W/m²-1.5 W/m² @ 340nm
- 0.75 W/m²-2.8 W/m² @ 420nm
- 30W/m²-150 W/m² @ 300-400nm
- The xenon lamp has a service life of up to 2000 hours, meeting the highest international standards.
- A variety of internal and external optical filters are available, and they can be replaced during testing to ensure consistent light transmittance and optical parameters, meeting both domestic and international standards.
- Precise control of irradiance, temperature, and humidity, with the ability to set control targets for black panel temperature, black scale temperature, or inner chamber temperature. The humidity control range is 30% - 95%.
- Up to 9 customizable test programs and 6 preset international standard programs can be stored. Each of the 9 programmable programs allows for 10 data segments.
- Real-time data collection and storage, with automatic recording and saving in EXCEL format, enabling easy data export via USB. This allows for truly unattended operation.
- The intuitive touch screen interface allows operators to adjust test parameters and monitor the testing process with ease.
- The high-precision Pt 100 black panel temperature sensor and black scale temperature sensor provide automatic temperature control within the sample room, with a range from room temperature to 100°C.
- Built-in alarm protection functions include warnings for large irradiance errors, high electrical conductivity of pure water, excessive cooling water temperature, water shortage in the cooling tank, low cooling water flow, overheating, and heating overload.
- The Xenon Accelerated Weathering Test Chamber - ToronXTC-6500H is user-friendly and virtually maintenance-free, with easy setup in any room.
- The adjustable test plate frame ensures optimal irradiation uniformity, improving data comparability across test panels.
- Fast results: Unlike outdoor exposure, which requires several hours of direct sunlight, the B-SUN test chamber provides 24/7 exposure equivalent to noon sunlight in summer, allowing for rapid aging of samples.
- Cost-effective: The ToronXTC-6500H delivers high value with a low purchase price, affordable lamp costs, and low operational expenses, making xenon arc testing accessible for even small labs.
