Thermal Shock Chambers
Russells air-to-air thermal shock chambers are available in three configurations:
- TSV Series Two Zone (hot/cold) Vertical - direct hot/cold transfer
- TSH Series Three Zone (hot/ambient/cold) Horizontal - direct hot/cold transfer with selectable ambient temperature dwell required for some MIL-STD's.
- TSD Series Double Duty (hot/cold/hot) - direct hot/cold transfer with additional hot zone and second transfer carriage effectively doubles throughput capacity for high volume production.
- Sizes from 30 l (1 cu ft) to 450 l (16 cu ft) capacity
- Cold zone temperatures to 73° C (-100° F)
- Hot zone to 200° C (392° F)
- Automatic transfer of test specimens between zones
