ASTM ISO Standard Box-Type UV Aging Chamber with Touch Screen Simulation Sunlight Rain and Dew Test Equipment (RT-308B)

RT-308B UV Accelerated Aging Test Chamber

UVA-340 Accelerated Aging Test Chamber

The UVA-340 fluorescent UV lamp is used as the light source to simulate sunlight, rain, and dew, reproducing outdoor weathering in a controlled and accelerated environment.

During the test, samples are exposed to alternating cycles of UV light and moisture at a set temperature. Within days or weeks, the chamber can simulate months or years of natural aging. Typical damages include fading, discoloration, cracking, chalking, turbidity, brittleness, and oxidation.

The chamber features a spraying device to simulate rainfall and can recreate multiple environmental conditions such as UV, high temperature, humidity, condensation, and darkness.

It automatically monitors black panel temperature and water bath temperature for stability. With an optional irradiance control system, the light intensity can be kept at 0.76 W/m² @ 340 nm or a preset value, extending the lamp lifespan and ensuring consistent test results.

I. Equipment Summary

(1) The QUV is the most widely used weathering test machine globally.
(2) It has become the global standard for accelerated weathering testing in laboratories: compliant with ISO, ASTM, DIN, JIS, SAE, BS, ANSI, GM, U.S. GOVT, and other national standards.
(3) Rapidly and realistically replicates the damage caused by sunlight, rain, and dew to materials: In just a few days or weeks, the QUV can replicate the damage that would take months or years to occur outdoors, including fading, discoloration, loss of brightness, chalking, cracking, blurring, brittleness, loss of strength, and oxidation.
(4) Reliable aging test data from the QUV can accurately predict the weather resistance (aging resistance) of products and assist in the selection and optimization of materials and formulations.
(5) Widely applicable across industries, such as: coatings, inks, paints, resins, plastics, printing and packaging, adhesives, automotive motorcycle industries, cosmetics, metals, electronics, electroplating, pharmaceuticals, etc.

4. Low-water protection
5. Over-temperature protection.

VII. Temperature Control

UV: First-order optical reactions are insensitive to changes in temperature. However, the subsequent second-order reaction rate is closely related to temperature variations. Generally, reaction speed increases with rising temperature. Therefore, temperature control is critical during UV exposure testing. More importantly, the accelerated test temperature must match the maximum temperature the material will encounter in actual application. The UV process temperature within the equipment is set to any point between 50°C and 70°C, depending on the irradiance level and ambient room temperature. Temperature regulation is achieved through a microprocessor-based controller that directs systems such as air heaters and water heaters within the unit.
Humidity: The destructive effect of moisture on materials increases dramatically with rising temperature. Therefore, temperature control is the fundamental requirement during the humidity process. Furthermore, achieving accelerated effects necessitates maintaining a high-temperature environment throughout the humidity cycle. Consequently, the condensation process temperature is set to any point between 40°C and 60°C.

VIII.Heating System

1. Utilizes U-shaped titanium alloy high-speed heating tubes.
2. Temperature control and illumination operate as completely independent systems.
3. Temperature control output power is calculated by a microcomputer to achieve high precision and energy efficiency.
4. The heating system features over-temperature protection:
1) Black panel temperature is controlled via a color touchscreen programmable controller or digital keypad temperature controller. Output power is calculated by a microcomputer with PID self-tuning. Monitoring uses a standard PT100 black panel temperature sensor.

2) Water bath temperature is controlled by a color touchscreen programmable Korean temperature controller. The water bath is located at the bottom of the chamber and incorporates an electric water heater. During testing, one phase involves a dark condensation process requiring the chamber to generate saturated water vapor at elevated temperatures. When this vapor encounters the relatively cooler specimen surface, condensation forms dew on the specimen.
