XI'AN, China - ColoradoDesk -- As industries from renewable energy to automotive electronics demand rigorous validation under harsh conditions, the need for flexible, high-volume testing solutions grows exponentially. LIB steps forward with its line of custom-engineered walk-in environmental chambers – expansive enclosures designed not just for size, but to simulate precise, extreme environments for diverse, demanding applications.

Moving beyond simple scaling, LIB's walk-in chambers are intelligently designed around the test article. Every critical factor is integrated: the specimen's dimensions, weight (supporting massive loads like 7600W lamps or 300kg fixtures), electrical and thermal load requirements, and specific test standards (IEC 61215 for PV panels, PV1210/LV124/VDA for automotive, IEC 60068-2-60 for mixed gas). This ensures the chamber isn't just space, but a purpose-built performance environment.

LIB's distinct advantage lies in specialized environmental simulation capabilities within the walk-in format:

1. Climate Chambers: Achieve full-range conditions (-60°C to +100°C, 10-98% RH) with rapid ramping (up to 3.4°C/min) and options like microwave humidification. Ideal for exhaustive thermal cycling (1000+ cycles) and condensation stress tests on items like photovoltaic panels or bulk components. Features include custom access ports, optimized cooling (BOCK compressors, water/air cooled), and dedicated controller placement.

2. Dust Chambers (IP Testing): Engineered for ingress protection validation, offering solutions like underground installation for low-ceiling labs and flexible configurations (with or without a base chamber + dust cover).

3. Salt Spray Walk-ins: Combine corrosive atmospheres with precise thermal control (-20°C) and fast transitions. Featuring SUS316 stainless steel interiors for maximum corrosion resistance, they meet stringent automotive/marine standards (ISO 9227, VDA, PV1210, Honda/Nissan CCT).

4. Mixed Gas Test Chambers: Enable precise exposure to corrosive or toxic gases at PPB concentrations within SUS316 chambers. Configurable for 3-4 gas mixtures, custom sample holders, and specific internal parameters.

True functional adaptability defines LIB: detachable structures, selectable water or air cooling, flexible controller positioning, and bespoke access ports allow tailoring without over-engineering. Designed for usability and durability, features like noise control, ramp access for heavy items (e.g., PV panels on rails), integrated data logging, and stable airflow ensure testing is safe, repeatable, and accurate—whether for a single large DUT or batch component testing.

Elevate your large-scale testing with LIB's specialized walk-in solutions.
