CTS C-40/350 Climate Chamber

Type: C-40/350 Ex/l

Climatic Test Chamber, Water-Cooled

The Ex/l designation indicates that this climatic test chamber is suitable for use in explosive atmospheres, Zone 1.

This means it is designed for environments where explosive atmospheres may occur.

Such equipment is specially constructed and certified to ensure safety in these hazardous areas.

Temperature Tests:

• Temperature range: –40 °C to +180 °C
• Temperature deviation: ≤ ±0.3 K over time
• Temperature change rate according to IEC 60068-3-5:
• Heating: 3.5 K/min
• Cooling: 4 K/min
• Heat compensation:
• approx. 3500 W at +20 °C
• approx. 2000 W at –20 °C

Climatic Tests:

• Temperature range: +10 °C to +90 °C
• Humidity range: 10% to 95% relative humidity
• Dew point range: +5 °C to 78 °C
• Temperature deviation: ≤ ±1.0 K over time
• Humidity deviation: ≤ ±3.0% r.h. over time

The technical data refer to an ambient temperature of +25 °C, rated voltage 400 V, without test specimen, without heat compensation, and without additional equipment.

Options may influence performance data.
