Humidity Cabinet
C&W humidity cabinets are designed to reproduce test conditions of high humidity at constant or cycling temperatures demanded by modern industry. The cabinets are reliable, easy to operate and have a robust construction.
Description
C&W Humidity Cabinets are designed to reproduce test conditions of high humidity at constant or cycling temperatures. The test chamber environment is created by water being heated to precise temperatures to generate water vapour. The water vapour saturates the air in the test area which is constantly being circulated by the internal fan to ensure even distribution. The test panels or components are exposed to the moisture enriched air, allowing the water to be absorbed by the coating. Oxidising with the base metal resulting in either blistering of the coating or the formation of red rust or oxidisation on a non–ferrous metal. This test is used to reproduce the exposure to naturally occurring condensation or by cycling the temperature, in the cabinet dew formation can be produced.
Pioneering designs have made C&W the UK leader in the manufacture of accelerated corrosion and environmental test cabinets.
Operating Modes
C&W Humidity Cabinets provide a wide range of environmental test conditions:
Any constant temperature between 30°C and 80°C. +/- 1°C accuracy
Cyclic temperatures, step –up / step-down over time.
Constant high humidity – 95% to 100% saturated.
