Sheldon Manufacturing has launched the HC6 environmental humidity chamber designed for industrial and biotechnology testing applications in life-science, university and clinical research labs.
The HC6 floor model incorporates an air-jacket design that evenly disperses air within the walls to maintain uniformity and ensure proper insulation.
The design replicates natural conditions to determine potential limitations a sample would experience when exposed to various temperature and moisture fluctuations.
The HC6 environmental chamber also offers a wide temperature and humidity range that allows users to process samples in minutes, making life easier for laboratory professionals.
Specifically, the HC6 unit is suitable for running the common 80C and 80 per cent humidity test.
Other features of the HC6 include: microprocessor-based PID controllers, a stainless steel chamber, a steam generator that adds heat while humidifying, dual display of temperature and humidity, which allows instant access to set point and operating conditions, and a digital countdown timer that displays the time remaining in a test procedure.
