Xenon Arc Test Chamber is a state-of-art equipment, usually used in Color Fastness to Light and Accelerated weather testing. It measures the effect of sunlight and outdoor conditions, which contain UV radiation, on colors.

Textile garments are generally exposed to sunlight. Sunlight tends to destroy colorants, and “fading” occurs, and color becomes pale and dull. This test helps the manufacturers to evaluate the behavior of colorants that will eventually affect the material’s lifespan.  This test helps understand the susceptibility of dyes to degrade by photochemical degradation and the degree of dye association or agglomeration in fibers. The results also help them in the selection of new color combinations and the improvement of existing colors. Moreover, UV finishes and stabilizers are also tested in it.

Darong Textile Tester has the patent for this Xenon chamber and has development and research patents. Darong is one of the few manufacturers, who are distributing it worldwide. It has vast applications in textiless, coatings, paint, auto-mobile, and other industries where colorants are used.

Key Features

Xenon Arc Lamps:  The Arc tester uses 1500W long Xenon arc lamp to stimulate sunlight spectral distribution including Infrared (IR), visible and Ultra-Violet (UV) radiations. This technology is highly efficient and energy saving and truly reflects sunlight spectrum. Users can also switch between monitoring bands according to test standards.

Temperature Monitoring: This tester supports BST (Black Standard Thermometer) and BPT (Black Panel Thermometer) modes. These modes ensure complete sample testing temperature from inner material to coated surfaces, thus reflecting the maximum temperature a sample may obtain during exposure.

Temperature Managing System: This color fastness to light tester has built in air filtration and circulation system which can maintain temperature ranging 20~50℃ with an accuracy of 2℃.

Exceptional Performance: It is equipped with powerful CPU which can display test results in details, charts and curves on screen which ensures real time control and accuracy.

Multiple Sample Test: This UV tester can test up to 13 samples as GB standard and 06 samples, if ASTM standard is used. It rotates the sample holder at 5 RPM for remote monitoring.

Built-in Printer (Optional): Users can choose thermal printer for instant and efficient results.

Vast compatibility: This Xenon test chamber complies with all type of related test standards including ISO, GB/T, TM and AATCC standards.

Easy to Use: This Xenon tester is equipped with 7-inch touch screen along with a variety of test monitoring mode. Users can use animations and digital charts for intuitive and clear understandings.
