Sun Simulation Test Cabinet SunEvent

 

Weiss Technik SunEvent: Solar Simulation Test Chamber for Accelerated Aging  

The Weiss Technik SunEvent Solar Simulation Chambers are state-of-the-art test units designed to simulate the harsh, combined environmental effects of sunlight, temperature, and humidity. Products in daily life—from automotive components to consumer goods—are constantly exposed to these factors, which cause painted surfaces to fade and accelerate the aging of materials. SunEvent allows for light resistance and durability tests that are reproducible, certified, and conducted under accelerated conditions. 

Key Features & Solar Simulation Technology 

The SunEvent chamber simulates solar radiation with high precision and flexibility: 

1. Solar Radiation Simulation: Solar radiation is simulated using an irradiation unit installed on top of the test chamber. 

 

2. Light Source: Metal halide lamps are used as light sources. The emitted spectrum is based on global radiation according to CIE publication no. 85, table 4. 

 

3. Irradiation Uniformity: The irradiation unit is made in Germany and offers a high degree of irradiation homogeneity. 

 

4. Adjustable Intensity: The irradiation intensity is fully adjustable, with a range of 400 to 1100 W/m2 for the compact models. 

 

5. Advanced Filtration: Radiation passes through pre-aged, heated, double-glazed filter glass integrated into the ceiling of the test space. 

 

6. Future-Proof Refrigerant: Uses the new refrigerant R449A (GWP 1397), ensuring safe usage after 2030 and making the equipment easier to maintain. 

 

7. Precision Control: The chamber maintains excellent temperature and humidity consistency, guaranteeing correct and reliable results.
