Unitemp has this week completed the sale of its first-ever Non Nitrogen HALT (Highly Accelerated Life Testing) chamber in the UK.

While we can’t name the customer, this is a significant moment for both Unitemp and the UK market — a high-value system, representing a new era of accessibility for HALT testing without the hurdles of traditional infrastructure.

The system is a non-nitrogen system that uses advanced cascade refrigeration from ESPEC, eliminating the need for liquid nitrogen — often the main barrier to adopting HALT testing.

From aerospace to automotive and advanced electronics, this chamber enables engineers to push products to failure faster, safer, and more efficiently — catching issues before they reach the field.

Key Features at a Glance

6DoF repetitive shock table for full mechanical stress exposure

Temperature cycling up to 15°C/min — no LN2 required

Integrated dry-air purge (or optional nitrogen)

Air-cooled models for flexible installation

P-300 touchscreen controller with web and USB access

This self-contained system delivers true HALT performance with lower running costs and simpler site requirements — ideal for facilities that previously couldn’t support this kind of testing.

For Unitemp, this sale is a milestone — and a sign of growing demand for advanced product validation tools in the UK.

As companies face tighter development cycles and higher reliability demands, HALT is becoming a go-to strategy. And with nitrogen-free systems, it’s finally practical for more organisations.
