Test Condition

1.Sample Mounting Method:The test sample is fixed on the test frame, and when the sample holder is not filled with a fluorescent lamp, the sample holder needs to be filled with a blackboard to keep the inner wall of the test chamber closed.

 

2.Test Temperature:When the light can be used 50, 60, 70℃ three kinds of temperature, the priority is to use 60℃;The temperature of the condensation phase is 50°C and the tolerance uniformity of the temperature is ±3.

 

3.Light each condensation cycle:You can choose between 4H illumination, 4H condensation or 8H illumination and 4H condensation

After the first illumination of 400~450H, each row of lamps needs to replace a fluorescent lamp, and other lamps compensate for the loss caused by lamp aging according to the lamp cycle and replacement method.This mode of operation ensures that the service life of each lamp is 1600~1800H.

 

4.Precautions when replacing lamps:When replacing the lamp, the water tray should be dried and cleaned to avoid the formation of scale.

Test Sample and Performance Evaluation

1.Evaluation of appearance:The coating is mainly the appearance assessment, plastic and rubber can also be evaluated when necessary, the inspection items are mainly gloss, color change, chalking, spots, blistering, cracks and dimensional stability.Instruments should be used as much as possible for quantitative item detection, such as gloss, colorimeter.

 

2.Evaluation of mechanics and other properties:General rubber materials for tensile strength, elongation, hardness measurement, plastic measurement of impact strength, elongation at break, tensile strength, bending strength, if necessary, can specify other performance test items.

Machine Features

1. The inner tank of the shell is made of high-quality stainless steel material, and the specimen frame is composed of aluminum alloy frame base frame liner and extension spring.

2. The main controller is an intelligent digital display controller, humanized design of the operation method, easy to learn and use.

3. The input adopts a digital correction system, and the built-in thermocouple measurement is accurate and stable.

4. There are position adjustment and AI artificial intelligence adjustment function, a variety of alarm modes.

5. Although ultraviolet (UV) light accounts for only 5% of sunlight, it is the main light factor that causes the durability of outdoor to decrease, because the photochemical reaction effect of sunlight increases with the decrease of wavelength, so when simulating the destructive effects of sunlight on the physical properties of materials, it is not necessary to reproduce the entire sunlight spectrum, and in some cases, only short-wave UV light needs to be simulated.

6. UV lamps are used because they are more stable than other lamps and can reproduce test results better.

7. The use of fluorescent ultraviolet lamps to simulate the effects of light on physical properties such as brightness decrease, fading, peeling, etc., is the best method, most of the number of ultraviolet fluorescent tubes produce ultraviolet light, not visible light and infrared light UVA-340 analog sunlight ultraviolet rays are the best choice.

8. UVA-340 can excellent simulation of the critical shortwave wavelength range sunlight spectrum, that is, the wavelength range of 295 to 360 nm, UVA-340 only produces the spectrum of UV wavelengths found in sunlight.

9. UVB-313 is used to maximize acceleration testing, UVB-313 can provide test results quickly, they use short-wavelength UV rays that are more intense than the UV light waves commonly found on the Earth’s surface today. Although these UV rays, which are much shorter than natural wavelengths, can speed up the test to the greatest extent.

10. The UV weathering test chamber is equipped with ultraviolet irradiation sensor, which is a high-precision photometric control system, which allows users to select the desired illuminance, continuous monitoring of light intensity and fully automatic accurate maintenance.

Temperature Control

UV

The first-stage optical reaction is not sensitive to temperature changes, however, the speed of the ensuing secondary reaction is closely related to temperature changes.

In general, as the temperature rises, the reaction speed will increase, so in the UV exposure test, temperature control is very important, and it is more important to match the test temperature used in the accelerated test with the maximum temperature encountered by the material in the actual application.

The temperature of the UV process in the device is set to any point of 50 °C ~ 70 °C, depending on the illuminance level and indoor ambient temperature.

The temperature regulation of the equipment is completed by a controller with a microcomputer calculation function to command a series of systems such as air heaters and water heaters in the equipment.

Dampness:

As the temperature increases, the destructive force of moisture on the material increases dramatically.

Therefore, in the wet overmolding, temperature control is the most basic requirement.Furthermore, to produce an acceleration effect, it is necessary to maintain a high temperature environment during wet processes.Therefore, the temperature of the condensation process is set to any point of 40 °C ~ 60 °C
