When maintaining cold and hot shock test chambers, paying attention to details is crucial. A minor oversight can significantly impact the effectiveness of the tests. Therefore, it is essential to prioritize the regular maintenance of testing equipment. Today, let’s go over a few key aspects of maintaining test chambers.

1. Keeping the Test Chamber “Clean”
Maintaining the cleanliness of a cold and hot shock test chamber involves both tidiness and cleanliness. The equipment should always be placed on a level surface to ensure it is neatly positioned at the installation site. If the equipment is tilted, it should be adjusted promptly. Cleaning should be carried out on a regular schedule:
Clearing dust around the equipment and cleaning dust from components, such as regularly cleaning the control panel. Accumulated dust can affect the electrical insulation and heat dissipation of components.
If there is any loosening of component contacts or connectors, the equipment may be at risk, potentially damaging components or causing a fire. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove dust from the control panel, inspect the component contacts and connectors, and then secure them.
Components like the condenser also require regular cleaning. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove dust from the condenser’s heat dissipation fins.
The interior of the equipment should also be cleaned regularly with a vacuum cleaner, and the exterior can be wiped clean with a cotton cloth.
2. Conducting “Inspections” on the Test Chamber
Inspection work is equally important and must be completed. This involves checking and repairing the equipment. Regular checks should include:
Ensuring that the power supply to the equipment is turned off.
Checking the water system for leaks or blockages.
Inspecting the water level control cup for any seepage and ensuring the water level is normal.
Cleaning any dirt inside the water system to prevent blockages.
Regularly inspecting the refrigeration system, including checking the copper pipes and all joints and welding points at least once a month.
The purpose of these inspections is to identify potential hazards. If any issues are detected during the inspection, it is important to contact after-sales service promptly to have professional technicians address and repair the faults.
