Request a Quote
XER-W83-A for advanced weathering simulations.
Equipped with a water-cooled 7.5kW xenon arc lamp, it supports a wide irradiation range (20–180W/m²).
Compliant with JIS, ASTM, ISO, and SAE standards, it is ideal for durability testing of paints, plastics, textiles, and automotive parts.
The automatic control system ensures stable and reproducible results.
Why Choose the XER-W83-A?
1. Reliable, Repeatable Testing
– Uniform light distribution and precise environmental controls ensure consistent, reproducible results.
2. International Standards Compliance
– Supports testing to ASTM, ISO, and other global standards, enabling worldwide product certification.
3. Lower Total Cost of Ownership
– Optimized lamp life, reduced energy consumption, and low-maintenance design lower operating costs over time.
4. Compact, Versatile Chamber
– Performs multiple test modes in one machine—irradiation, humidity, darkness, and water spray cycles.
5. Ideal for a Broad Range of Applications
– From automotive to coatings, plastics, and building materials, the XER-W85 adapts to diverse product testing needs.
* Lamp life may be affected when 100W is used.
** BPT = Black panel thermometer
● Wet temperature control range depends on test conditions, etc.
● Please note that specications may change due to continuous system improvement program
