Climatic Chambers
Climatic chambers are available in the ESE group to allow the testing of electronics modules at different temperatures. They are appropriate for temperature and humidity cycling tests for quality verification of board assemblies. Note that ESE is not equipped to perform burn-in testing of large production batches.
The climatic chambers in ESE are located in 13-S-011. The technical details are summarised below. The full list of available chambers, their technical details, the planning and reservation form are available here:
