Test Chambers in Vancouver, BC Test Chambers in Vancouver, BC. Also known as environmental test chambers, test chambers are vital for researchers in a variety of fields who seek to test the integrity of their products or specimens. You need to be sure that they can maintain their integrity extreme conditions they may have to deal with to in the real world. For over 20 years, Darwin Chambers has been the preferred controlled environment manufacturers for many Vancouver, BC scientists. If you're in need of test chambers, speak to a Darwin representative today at (314) 534-3111 or contact us online. What Are Test Chambers? Test chambers are specially constructed boxes, of various sizes, used to how particular conditions affect test subjects. The controlled environment of a test chamber allows scientists to accurately replicate conditions while keeping a close eye on the specimen. Charles F. Conrad innovated the first environmental test chamber in 1951, after working as a refrigerator repairman, by redesigning his home freezer to reach temperatures of -87℃. He sold it to General Motors Heat Treat Lab, who quickly asked Conrad to produce two more. Since then, test chambers have been designed and used to simulate a wide range of conditions, from extreme cold and 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 these factors, Vancouver, BC researchers can create environments that they wouldn't be able to duplicate outside of a test chamber. Different Kinds of Test Chambers in Vancouver, BC Darwin Chambers initially introduced our stability chambers to Vancouver, BC researchers over 20 years ago 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 precise and reliable chambers that are ideal for researchers no matter what they're studying. A few of our best-selling test chambers in Vancouver, BC include: Environmental Test Chambers — One of Darwin Chambers' best-selling units, our environmental chambers are quiet, easy to clean, extremely reliable, and perfect for laboratory use, providing unequaled temperature and humidity control. Standard units offer a temperature range of 2℃ to 50℃, and greater temperature ranges can be reached through upgrades at extra cost. Stability Test Chambers — Our stability test chambers not only meet, but exceed FDA and ICH standards. Our stability chambers are trusted in numerous different industries, including pharmaceutical, cosmetic, nutraceutical, medical device, therapeutic pharmaceuticals, pharmaceutical stress testing, and other research purposes both in Vancouver, BC and globally. Other popular stability options include stability refrigerators and stability freezers. Concrete Curing Chambers — These are great for the rigors of precision temperature and humidity control in concrete, asphalt, and other hard surfaces. Contrary to most of "testing" currently on the market, these chambers offer dependable operation, durable construction, and accurate results. The MC Series offers serious performance to Vancouver, BC engineers and researchers looking for serious results. Altitude Test Chambers — We partner with Colorado Altitude Training (CAT) in Boulder, Colorado, to offer a unique chamber for altitude simulation. Our system can reduce the oxygen levels from 20.9% to 15.2%, while keeping the pressure unchanged. Our altitude chambers have been used by the U.S. Speed Skating Team, Harvard University, U.A.E., College of William and Mary, Mayo Clinic, Tour de France winners and many more. Freeze/Thaw Test Chambers — These chambers are ideal for Vancouver, BC researchers who require ramp/soak programming. These chambers permit you to see how your product will hold up under various conditions. During the freeze/thaw cycle your subject is put through numerous different temperature changes that it might 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 great for ASTM materials testing, as well as testing for pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, and personal care products. Freezing and thawing capabilities range from -25℃ to 50℃. Heated-Humidified Incubators/Ovens Our HH Series of units can be utilized as pharmaceutical stress test chambers at 50C/75%RH. They can maintain temperatures as low as 5℃ or as high as 70℃ and offer maximum efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Our exclusive ultrasonic humidification system eliminates hot spots in the chamber and significantly decreases required operational costs.
