Test Chambers in Rochester, NY

Test Chambers in Rochester, NY. Also known as environmental test chambers, test chambers are crucial for researchers in a variety of fields who seek to test the integrity of their products or specimens. You need to know if they can maintain their integrity climatic changes, temperature and humidity changes, and other stress. Since 2003, Darwin Chambers has been the preferred controlled environment manufacturers for many Rochester, NY scientists. If you're in need of test chambers, speak to a Darwin representative today at (314) 534-3111 or contact us through our website.

What Are Test Chambers?

Test chambers are specially constructed boxes or cabinets used to how specific conditions affect products or biological specimens. The controlled environment of a test chamber allows researchers to accurately replicate conditions while being able to get exact readings. Charles F. Conrad invented the first environmental test chamber on his front porch in Holland, MI in 1951, by redesigning a residential freezer to allow for temperatures of -125℉. General Motors Heat Treat Lab decided to purchase it, and quickly asked Conrad to make another two.

Since then, hundreds of manufacturers have developed test chambers that simulate more than just cold, from extreme heat, humidity or replicating various altitudes.

In addition to temperature and humidity, test chambers can also be used to control other aspects of the environment, such as air pressure, atmospheric composition, and even electromagnetic fields. By controlling several different environmental factors, Rochester, NY researchers can create environments that they wouldn't be able to duplicate outside of a test chamber.

Types of Test Chambers in Rochester, NY

Darwin Chambers initially introduced our stability chambers to Rochester, NY researchers in 2003 as the first large-capacity thermoelectric-cooled pharmaceutical test chambers. Since then, we've continued to innovate, combining our technologies and our and expansive knowledge to deliver units that researchers in any field can count on. A few of our best-selling test chambers in Rochester, NY include:

  • Environmental Test Chambers — One of our most popular products, our environmental chambers are quiet enough to keep in a laboratory setting, easy to clean, extremely reliable, and well-suited for laboratory use, offering unrivaled temperature and humidity control. They can reach temperatures as low as 2℃ or as high as 50℃, and greater temperature ranges can be achieved through upgrades at extra cost.
  • Stability Test Chambers — Our stability test chambers are made to surpass FDA and ICH standards. Thousands of our stability chambers are currently in use by many pharmaceutical, cosmetic, nutraceutical, medical device, therapeutic pharmaceuticals, pharmaceutical stress testing, and other research purposes both in Rochester, NY and around the globe. We also offer stability refrigerators and stability freezers.
  • Concrete Curing Chambers — These are great for the harshness of exact temperature and humidity control in concrete, asphalt, and other hard surfaces. Contrary to most of "testing" apparatus available to control temperature/humidity for engineering needs, these chambers offer unmatched construction and results.
  • Altitude Test Rooms — We have teamed up with Colorado Altitude Training (CAT) in Boulder, Colorado, to offer a unique chamber for altitude simulation. Our units can simulate 9,000 feet at sea level, while the pressure stays the same. Our altitude test room clients include the U.S Olympic Committee, Harvard University, Doha Sports Hospital, College of William and Mary, Mayo Clinic, Ironman World Champions and many more.
  • Freeze/Thaw Test Chambers — These are well-suited for Rochester, NY companies looking for ramp/soak capabilities. These units permit you to determine how your product will hold up under various conditions. During the freeze/thaw cycle your product is put through numerous different temperature fluctuations that it may be subject to during its life cycle. You can easily change the temperatures, duration of testing, and how many cycles are performed each day. These Freeze Thaw chambers are ideal for ASTM materials testing, as well as testing for medication, food and beverage, and cosmetic products. Temperatures can extend from -25℃ to 50℃.
  • Heated-Humidified Incubators/Ovens Our HH Series of units are ideal for pharmaceutical stress testing at 50C/75%RH. Temperatures range from 5℃ to 70℃, and offer superior control and uniformity. Our own ultrasonic humidification system eliminates hot spots in the chamber and significantly reduces required maintenance costs.
