Traditional three-zone thermal shock chambers can be quite large, as three separate chambers are used. The TSA series has just one chamber, substantially reducing its size. Instead, it circulates cold, hot, or ambient air as needed. The conditioned air is pre-cooled or pre-heated beyond the setpoint, allowing quicker recovery of the desired condition after transfer.
The TSA-71H-W is configured especially to meet the popular Mil-Std 883 1010 method, from -65 to 150°C.
New Eco-Mode is standard for all models, except TSA-41L-A. Eco-mode manages the pre-conditioning modes to save energy usage. Savings of up to 29% over previous TSA models is possible, or as much as $2,000 a year.
TSA-71H-W and TSA-201S-W models have a new patented option that allows them to do thermal shock testing for 1000 cycles without needing a defrost step. This can save significant test time (other chambers may need defrost every 20-100 cycles), as well as saving additional energy.
