LIB Industry Xenon Arc Accelerated Aging Test Chamber: Accurate, Customizable, and Standards-Compliant

When it comes to testing the outdoor durability of materials, precision matters. Sunlight, temperature fluctuations, and humidity can significantly degrade plastics, coatings, films, and automotive components over time. Manufacturers and R&D teams need reliable, repeatable testing to accelerate aging without compromising accuracy.

The LIB Industry Xenon Arc Accelerated Aging Test Chamber offers the ultimate solution. This advanced Xenon Arc Test Chamber replicates full-spectrum natural sunlight to deliver precise, standards-compliant results for your materials.

Key Operational Parameters:

Parameter	Specification
Irradiation Source	4500 W water-cooled xenon arc lamp with quartz inner tube & borosilicate outer filter
Irradiance Range	35–150 W/㎡
Bandwidth Measurement	280–800 nm
Chamber Temperature	Ambient ~ 100 °C ±2 °C
Black Panel Temperature (BPT)	35–85 °C ±2 °C
Humidity Range	50–98 % RH
Water Spray Cycle	1–9999 H 59 M (Adjustable)
Sample Holder	Rotating, adjustable speed 1 r/min

Filter clarification: The borosilicate filter surrounding the quartz lamp is an optical component, not the lamp itself. It ensures emitted light stays within 280–800 nm for standard-compliant, repeatable testing.

Meet 5 Key International Standards with LIB Xenon Arc Test Chamber

LIB Industry Xenon Arc Test Chambers meet international standards, including ASTM G151, D6695, G155, ISO 11341, and D7869. These standards ensure laboratory exposure replicates the aging trends materials would experience outdoors.

Light control: 35–150 W/m²·nm irradiance with Daylight or Window Glass filters
BPT control: 35–85 °C ±2 °C
Humidity cycles: 50–98 % RH
Flexible exposure cycles: e.g., 102 min illumination + 18 min spray

This precise control guarantees reliable, repeatable, and traceable data for coatings, plastics, and automotive materials.

FAQ – Common Questions About LIB Industry Xenon Arc Test Chambers

Q1: Can xenon lamp life be extended?

A1: Beyond 1600 hours, lamps can operate with reduced light intensity. For precise testing, replacement is recommended.

Q2: What is a gas discharge lamp?

A2: A gas discharge lamp produces light via electrical discharge in a sealed gas-filled tube, creating a high-temperature plasma that emits visible light.

Q3: How does the filter work?

A3: The borosilicate outer layer filters the lamp's output to maintain a controlled spectrum (280–800 nm) for standard-compliant simulation.

Q4: What sample thickness is supported?

A4: Standard rotating racks: 3 cm; custom racks: up to 11 cm.
