Description

I. Product introduction
UV ultraviolet accelerated aging test box is suitable for the fluorescent ultraviolet lamp method in the light source exposure method of various materials in the laboratory, mainly for the change of the material placed outdoors, the new material to improve the formula and the durability of the product Sex test, etc.

II. Product overview and features
The UV ultraviolet accelerated aging test box adopts fluorescent ultraviolet lamps that can best simulate the UV spectrum of the sun, and combines temperature control and humidity supply devices to simulate the discoloration, brightness, and intensity reduction of materials; Cracking, peeling, chalking, oxidation and other factors such as high temperature, high humidity, condensation, dark cycle and other factors such as damage to sunlight (UV section), and at the same time, the synergy between ultraviolet light and moisture makes the material's light resistance or moisture resistance weakened or It is invalid, so it is widely used to evaluate the weather resistance of materials. The equipment provides the best sunlight UV simulation, low maintenance cost, easy to use, the equipment adopts a program controller to automatically run the test cycle, high degree of automation, and good lighting stability , The test results have the characteristics of high reproducibility.

Three. Structure
3.1 Ultraviolet fluorescent lamp:
The equipment uses a total of 8 UVA-340 fluorescent ultraviolet lamps, each 40W, which is suitable for comparing the performance of different types of polymers and stabilizers. It is also the best choice for correlation research. UVA-340 is in QC and R&D It plays an important role in the test of strong and durable materials. It can accelerate the test and quickly provide evaluation results.
A. Tube installation: UV lamps are fragile products, so the products are packaged separately when they leave the factory. Special care should be taken during installation to avoid unnecessary losses. During installation, open the test compartment cover and the replacement ports on both sides of the lamp tube after the equipment is powered off, insert the alignment seal ring of the ultraviolet fluorescent lamp, and then push the lamp tube to insert the seal ring on the opposite side of the lamp alignment, and finally adjust the lamp. Seal caps at both ends of the tube and install the lamp power supply connector. Pay attention to the cleanliness of the surface of the lamp used to prevent it from affecting the irradiance of the lamp. If there is pollution, wipe the surface with alcohol. The spare tube should be stored in a ventilated, dry and non-corrosive environment.
B. Maintenance of lamp radiation: due to long-term use, the output light energy of fluorescent ultraviolet lamps will gradually attenuate, so that the expected effect will not be achieved. When the light energy radiation is too low (when the uv lamp ignition time is accumulated to 400～450h ), the user should replace the eight lamps as shown in Figure 3 to ensure the performance of the equipment.

V. Test equipment
5.1. The structure of the test box is made of corrosion-resistant metal materials, including 8 fluorescent UV lamps, a water pan, a test sample rack, temperature and time control systems and indicators.
5.2. The lamp power is 40W, and the lamp length is 1200mm. The uniform working area of the test box is 900×210mm.
5.3. The lights are installed in a row of four, divided into two rows, the tubes of each row of lights are installed in parallel, and the center distance of the lights is 70 mm.
5.4. The test sample is fixedly installed at a position 50 mm away from the nearest parallel surface of the lamp surface. The test sample and its bracket constitute the inner wall of the box, and their backs are exposed to the cooling air at room temperature. Due to the temperature difference between the test sample and the air in the box . In order to produce stable condensation conditions during the condensation stage on the surface of the test sample, the test box should generate natural air convection from the bottom through the outer wall of the box and the channel of the test sample.
5.5. The water vapor is generated by the low water tray of the heating box, the water depth is not more than 25mm, and there is an automatic water supply controller. The water tray should be cleaned regularly to prevent the formation of scale.
5.6. The temperature of the test chamber is measured by a sensor fixed with a width of 75 mm, a height of 100 mm, and a thickness of 2.5 mm. The black aluminum plate (blackboard) should be placed in the central area of the exposure test. The measuring range of the thermometer is 30~ 80℃, the tolerance is ±1℃. The light and condensation stage should be controlled separately, and the condensation stage is controlled by the heating water temperature.
5.7. The test box should be placed in a test room with a temperature of 15～35℃, 300mm away from the wall, and should be prevented from being affected by other heat sources. The air in the test room should not circulate strongly, so as not to affect the light and condensation conditions.
