CLIMATIC TESTING FOR BALLISTIC PERFORMANCE OF BALLISTIC VESTS. CCK-20/1000T CLIMATIC CHAMBER

 A client wanted to evaluate the ballistic performance of bulletproof vests over time according to NIJ Standard-0101.06. To do this, they planned to acquire a Tumbler drum unit to combine with a climatic chamber that met the climatic and environmental requirements for the various testing procedures for flexible (soft) and rigid (hard) armor.

The required conditions were:
👉 Adequate interior volume to accommodate the Tumbler drum.
👉 Reinforced floor to support the weight of the Tumbler drum.
👉 Compliance with the environmental conditions specified in NIJ Standard-0101.06.
👉 Extended temperature range for conditioning rigid armor (ballistic plates), Phase 2 cold cycle.
👉 Communication capability with the external drum control system.

OUR SOLUTION: The CCK-20/1000T climate test chamber, adapted in its internal dimensions to the drum's dimensions. The chamber features a front opening of over 180º, allowing access to the test area. Its extended range allows for testing both flexible armor and rigid shielding (phase 1 and phase 2 cold cycle). The system includes an Ethernet port as well as communication signals with the customer's remote control system for the Tumbler drum. All of this is controlled by the advanced control system based on a 7” touchscreen panel.

HOW TO TEST EXTERNAL THERMAL INSULATION SYSTEMS (ETICS)? CCK-25/6800T CLIMATIC CHAMBER

 Our client, a renowned Spanish Certification Center for construction materials, already had several pieces of equipment for performing validation and certification tests on External Thermal Insulation Systems (ETICS). However, due to the workload of the existing equipment, they needed an additional system to increase their validation capacity.

The requirements they were looking for were:
👉 Compliance with European guidelines EAD 040083-00-0404.
👉 Equipment identical to the previously supplied systems.
👉 Ability to test two samples in parallel.
👉 Enclosures for both sides of the chamber for when the chamber is only evaluating one sample or for use as a conventional climatic chamber.

OUR SOLUTION: Our climatic test chamber, model CCK-25/6800T, features a standardized design compliant with European guidelines EAD 040083-00-0404. With an internal volume of 6800 liters, it can test two thermal insulation systems in parallel. The system includes a thermostatically controlled bath to condition the water to the specified temperature and then recirculate it. All of this is controlled by our advanced system, which features a 7” touchscreen panel and associated logging software for PC-based control and recording.

THERMAL SHOCK TESTING OF VEHICLE ACCESS COMPONENTS. CRT2V-40/166T THERMAL SHOCK CHAMBER

 Every vehicle must withstand extreme temperature conditions, from the coldest mornings with sub-zero temperatures to the hottest parts of the day. In this case, our client, a manufacturer of advanced vehicle access, security, and control systems, was looking for a thermal shock chamber for their quality control testing.

The required specifications were:
👉 Medium-sized interior volume.
👉 Thermal shock from -40°C to +200°C.
👉 Compliance with IEC standards.
👉 Compact size.

OUR SOLUTION: Our CRT2V-40/166T thermal shock chamber. In this case, we reduced the camera height using a basket transfer system different from the traditional pneumatic piston system, which allowed us to significantly lower the overall height. The system performed exceptionally well under thermal shock, operating from -40°C to +200°C. All of this was controlled via our advanced 7” touchscreen control system and associated software.

CLIMATIC TESTING FOR DERMATOLOGICAL STUDIES. CLIMATIC CHAMBER CM-10/695T

A leading global pharmaceutical company focused on medical dermatology contacted us to request a climate chamber for stability testing. The project, initially straightforward, had a unique challenge: the installation space was difficult to access.

The requirements were:

👉 Custom design to facilitate equipment access.
👉 Temperature and humidity control.
👉 Demineralized water reserve tank.
 
👉 4 reinforced trays.
👉 Independent communication with their data logging system.

 

OUR SOLUTION: The CCK-10/695T climatic testing chamber. We redesigned this climatic chamber both internally and externally to allow access to the installation area without compromising the chamber's usable volume. The airflow system was redesigned, placing the technical components on the side of the chamber instead of the rear, without sacrificing usable volume. A vertical space was added for storing tall samples. The interior dimensions are 1240 x 585 x 960 mm (H x W x D). It features a security lock to prevent tampering and a 7” touchscreen control system with data transmission to your recording system.
