Accelerated Environmental Stress Screening Powered by 12°C/min Linear Ramping Precision.
The ITM-LAB KTB Series is a high-performance, water-cooled rapid temperature change testing chamber engineered for rigorous Environmental Stress Screening (ESS) and reliability profiling. Purpose-built to subject aerospace electronics, automotive components, and semiconductor modules to extreme thermal shock and gradual stress variation, the KTB series delivers adjustable linear ramping rates up to 12°C/min across a broad dynamic spectrum from -55°C to +125°C.
Utilizing an advanced Balanced Temperature and Humidity Control (BTHC) system paired with elite German semi-hermetic refrigeration trains, this series eliminates thermal overshoot while cutting redundant energy consumption during steady-state soak periods. Fully compliant with international testing protocols including IEC60068-2-14, IEC60068-2-1, and IEC60068-2-2, it provides uncompromised data logging for mission-critical engineering labs.

🌍 Standardized Environmental Compliance Protocols
The hardware and control loops are pre-configured to execute specialized simulation programs in strict accordance with global test criteria:
-
IEC 60068-2-14 (Test N): Rapid change of temperature with prescribed linear ramp profiles.
-
IEC 60068-2-1 / IEC 60068-2-2: Steady-state low temperature and high temperature operational endurance assessments.
🔌 Facility Infrastructure & Site Preparation Requirements
To guarantee nominal performance at peak 12°C/min ramp loads, your facility must accommodate the following logistics:
-
Power Distribution: Three-Phase 5-Wire AC 380V (±10%), 50Hz with a dedicated ground resistance ≤ 4Ω, utilizing a 3P+N 250A leakage isolation switch.
-
Integrated Water Auxiliary Chiller (Model JLSF-10HP Included): Features an independent 10HP fully enclosed scroll compressor loop delivering a nominal cooling capacity of 31 kW to maintain optimal condensation heat exchange.
-
Humidification Feed: Clean water input line requiring a minimum water resistivity ≥ 500MΩ.
