Thermal Vacuum Chamber Testing

Thermal vacuum or thermal vac testing when testing components such as thermal straps and complete thermal subsystems tsl has a custom thermal vacuum thermal vac chamber specifically designed for temperature and pressure control.

Thermal vacuum chamber testing.

Typically the thermal environment is achieved by passing liquids or fluids through thermal shrouds for cold temperatures or through the application of thermal lamps for high temperatures. Common uses of thermal vacuum chambers include for pre flight bakeout thermal cycling and component testing in the industry. It is equipped with cold walls an on axis filtered xenon solar simulator and pumping systems suitable for trace contaminant sensitive tests. Site level to 1 x 10 7 torr.

Thermal vacuum testing has been employed since the beginning of the u s. Testing in a thermal vacuum chamber is a requirement for compliance with a variety of regulatory standards in the aerospace and defense industries. Thermal vacuum testing space simulation.
