A Hot & Cold Chamber is a specialized environmental testing system designed to simulate extreme temperature variations, allowing for the assessment of product reliability, durability, and performance. These chambers alternate between high and low temperatures, often at rapid rates, to simulate real-world conditions where products are exposed to thermal stress. This testing is also known as thermal cycling or temperature cycling.
Hot & Cold Chambers are essential in industries like electronics, automotive, aerospace, defence, and pharmaceuticals. They enable the identification of material expansion, contraction, and potential failures due to rapid temperature changes. The chambers comply with industry standards like ISO 9001:2015, CE, NABL and other industry standards, making them essential for regulatory compliance.
