FREEZE-THAWING CHAMBER FOR BUILDING MATERIALS, CHD-896

 Building materials installed outdoors have to withstand strong climatic conditions for years: rain, ice, sun, wind, etc. In winter is when they experience the greatest thermal changes with day/night cycles, with moisture absorption during the day, frost at night, rain, etc., causing significant degradation of the material. This is why it is important to subject the products to the most demanding quality controls.

The freeze-thaw chambers are designed to carry out the most demanding thermal tests. Our model CHD-896 has been a modification in terms of interior volume of our standard designs to meet the load requirements. The equipment consists of a thermal test chamber in a horizontal configuration for greater ergonomics and a thermostatised bath to temper the water so that there is recirculation inside the chamber to carry out the defrosting at the temperature indicated by the standard.
