UV Light Accelerated Weathering Tester (Touch Screen)

UV Light Accelerated Weathering Tester

Polymer products usually damage when exposed to various environmental conditions which are formed from the atmosphere.  This directly affects the actual life of the product. Hence, it is necessary to test the quality of the polymers to calculate their real life of the product when placed years outside. This can be done proficiently with the help of a testing instrument known as UV Light Accelerated Weathering Tester. This UV test machine is widely used to create simulated climatic conditions and to study the weather resistant properties of the material inside the laboratory. It has become a very effective method to measure the effect of environmental conditions on the products. Two models of Ultraviolet accelerated weathering testers are available namely,

• PSPL 855 It is a Basic Ultraviolet Light Accelerated Weathering Cabinet that does not provide irradiance control.
• PSPL 856 It is an Ultraviolet Light Accelerated Weathering Cabinet that offers Irradiance control along with the facility of automatic calibration.

Optional Accessories: UVB lamps (40w/313nm) / UVA lamps (40W/340nm)

Both PSPL 855 & 856 model are equipped with fluorescent UV lamp to provide the light source inside the chamber. The humidity and the temperature of the instrument can be controlled easily to achieve the periodic condensation on the test specimen to evaluate the damaging factor completely which are caused due to the moisture, sunlight, temperature and various material ageing phenomenon that includes intensity reduction, fading, cracking, flaking, cracking, oxidation and chalking. The Fluorescent UV light creates the effect of sunlight whereas the water spray and condensation creates the impact of dew and rain.

At the time of the test, temperature and radiation energy can be controlled easily. The difficult test cycle usually carries out under the strong ultraviolet radiations and in wet and dark condensation period having relative humidity 100 percent. These types of tests are generally performed in the field of automotive industry, paint, and plating industry, automotive industry, plastic, glue, wood industry, etc.

Presto UV light accelerated weathering tester has been made with an excellent control system with the latest HMI touchscreen that helps the manufacturers to conduct the test. The temperature settings along with preset timer functions have also been embedded in this UV Light Test Chamber which helps the manufacturers to conduct weathering tests on the specimen with ease. With its robust construction and easy-to-use operational features, one can easily test their sample under different testing conditions with this UV test chamber

Besides this, the UV lamps have also been embedded in this testing instrument that will help the manufacturers to stimulate short-wave ultraviolet light as a part of sunlight. This weathering test chamber has been made in accordance with industry standards that include ISO 4892-3:2012, ASTM D4329-13, ASTM D4587-11, and ASTM G-151-10.

Users can easily perform the test easily with the help of this fully automatic UV Test Chamber. The UVA & UVB lamps will help to ensure the comparability of testing results. This highly accurate lab testing instrument has been designed with alarm and protection features with creep-age, water breaking, overloading, and over-temperature.

The inner cabinet of this testing instrument has been fabricated with stainless steel SUS 304 stainless steel material. This will help the manufacturers to conduct weather tests on the materials and ensure that this lab testing instrument will be used for a longer time. Presto offers the best UV light accelerated weathering tester price to clients.
