SP Industries has introduced a new version of its FTS Thermojet temperature cycling system.
Enhanced data-logging capabilities enable the system to be used for device characterisation through advanced trending and data analysis.
The new generation system also allows easy data transfer to a PC using a USB memory stick.
Temperature cycling using the FTS Thermojet is a proven method used to rapidly assess the reliability of products.
A product that is alternately heated and cooled stresses any component that has a thermal-expansion mismatch.
The FTS Thermojet system provides a source of precisely controlled hot and cold air that can be used for rapidly testing components, hybrids, modules, PCBs and assemblies.
The FTS Thermojet is the only temperature-cycling air system that utilises a dual-stage cascade refrigeration system.
This allows it to deliver high cooling capacity, heat removal and reliability.
The FTS Thermojet delivers unmatched temperature transition speeds and in only 10 seconds can cycle a product under test from +225C to -80C.
The system can maintain a temperature of -80C at a flow rate of 20SCFM, facilitating increased throughput and productivity.
The FTS Thermojet is compact and completely self-contained.
It doesn't require an external cooling source such as liquid carbon dioxide or nitrogen.
The system uses standard off-the-shelf environmentally friendly refrigerants to reduce downtime and save on maintenance.
