Shock Test Chambers

Temperature changes from -80°C to +220°C can be achieved within seconds.

This level of testing provides the level of environmental stress screening (ESS) needed to induce latent flaws in the product prior to shipment from the factory.

The environmental stress screening process is designed to screen out pass/fail components and is consistent with standards such as IEC 60068-2-14, DIN and MIL.

The two (or three) temperature chambers are vertically arranged with a ball spindle drive guiding the test basket from one temperature enclosure to the other.

High air circulating rates result in rapid temperature cycles and a uniform distribution of temperature in the test enclosure.

Up to 1000 cycles are possible without defrosting. This means that we can guarantee virtually constant availability of the system.

As well as a 120 litre and 300 litre system we also supply a brand new 60 litre system.

Contactless sensors ensure exact limit positions and provides exact tightness between the individual zones, therefore minimising energy consumption.

All zones can be operated as individual temperature enclosures.

Weiss Gallenkamp can now offer the newly developed VT3 7006 S2 Shock Test Chamber, and Weiss Technik TS60. These small shock test chambers (60 litre test space) have been especially designed for use in development and/or quality control laboratories.

In addition to temperature stressing, extremely rapid temperature cycling rates in the range of -80 °C to +220 °C result in the extremely high mechanical stressing of test specimens.

If electronic components are exposed to this severe temperature cycling, weak points are revealed rapidly. By assigning our shock test chamber, you not only reduce the number of premature failures but also increase the reliability of your products.

These new chambers fulfil the requirements of international testing standards such as DIN, IEC and MIL. The powerful chambers are particularly suitable for users who have to test either small test specimens or only a small number of test specimens.

The principle of the vertical arrangement of the test zones of the VT3 7006 S2 and TS60 shock test chambers have proved to be highly successful. A ball spindle drive ensures reliable guidance of the cradle. Air guidance facilities, designed according to experience gained from the field, combined with high air circulating rates result in rapid temperature cycles and a uniform distribution of temperature in the test space. This chamber guarantees fast temperature adjustment of the air and the test specimens, which results in shorter cycle times and thus, reduced test times.
1000 cycles are possible without defrosting. This means we can guarantee virtually constant availability of the system.
