Temperature Chambers and Humidity Chambers Walk-In with Solid Construction – Customized Design/Build – The W-Series
ASK US ABOUT OUR ENERGY SAVINGS PACKAGE! Russells unitized solid construction temperature/humidity test chambers give the maximum durability and performance for your most demanding test requirements. Moisture build up can be very damaging to many products, especially electronics, causing corrosion and oxidation. Russells W-Series chambers allow manufacturers to simulate how their products will perform in the most extreme temperature and humidity conditions.Russells W-Series humidity / temperature chambers can provide the following combination of controlled testing environments:
- Steady state temperature and temperature/humidity tests
- Rapid rate temp./humidity cycling tests (>9°F/5°C/min.)
- Elevated temperature heat aging (>350°F/177°C)
Cabinet Features
- Brushed 304 stainless steel liner, heliarc welded and dye checked
- Welded steel frame, removable access panels to serviceable components, durable enamel finish
- Fiberglass insulation, 0.25K factor
- Full opening door with dual gaskets (many door configurations available)
Performance
- Temperature range for single stage refrigeration:
-13°F/-25°C to 350°F/177°C - Temperature range for cascade refrigeration:
-100°F/-73°C to 350°F/177°C - Humidity Range: 10% to 95% RH within the bounds of a 185°F/85°C max. dry bulb and a 40°F/4°C min. dewpoint.
Russells W-Series humidity and temperature chambers are available in sizes from 225 cu./ft. (6,371L) to drive in sizes. A Russells application engineer can assist you in selecting the chamber configuration and size that is most economical for your custom testing needs. Let Russells give you the competitive edge!
