We've got a batch of rubber compounds coming in next week that need to be qualified for outdoor exposure, and the old setup just wasn't it for the UV compnent—this HD-E704 handles both thermal aging and UV degradation in one cycle, which saves us form running two separate tests and cross-referencing data that never quite lines up.
The chamber runs a 300W UV bulb with a turntable spinning at 10±2 rpm, so sample exposure is pretty uniform across the shelf boards, and the temperature control is ±3°C with uniformity at ±1°C when you're holding at 100°C, which is tight enough for most of our ASTM D1148 work, though the ambient to 200°C range means our company can push it for some higher-temp yellowing studies too.

It's not ideal for very thin films or samples that degrade quickly below 50°C—the hot air circulation can dry them out faster than you'd want, so we'll stick with the sealed desiccator method for those, but for molded rubber plaques and thick elastomers, this is actually better than the old forced-convection oven we had.
What you get when ordering is the unit itself, 140 kg net weight, with two stainles steel shelf boards—internal chamber is SUS304, so no rust worries at high humidity—and the timer runs up to 999 hours, which is overkill for most of our 48-hour cycles, but we usually have stock on these, though confirm lead time (usually 2-4 weeks) because the 220V, 15A power requirement might need a dedicated circuit in our lab.
The external finish is baking varnish, which holds up fine to lab solvents, and the controller displays temperature to 0.1°C, but honestly, the ±3°C accuracy means we're not splitting hairs at that resolution—basically, it's a workhorse for standard aging tests, not a research-grade instrument.
We require a minimum order of 1 unit for this model, but we can discuss larger volumes if you need a fleet for your lab.
Standard lead time is around 15-20 working days from order confirmation, depending on current production load and stock.
Yes, we can supply a certificate of compliance for ASTM D1148 and JIS-P8127 standards upon request, and we also offer third-party calibration reports if needed.
That spec means that when the chamber is set to 100°C, the temperature across your test space won't vary more than 1°C, so your samples experience consistent heat exposure during aging tests.
The 300W UV bulb is fixed inside the chamber, and the turntable rotates at 10±2 rpm to ensure even exposure. You can place samples on the included shelf boards or directly on the turntable, just make sure they don't block the bulb.
