Application

The Advanced Light & Weather Fastness Tester evaluates the color durability and aging resistance of textiles and various materials by simulating natural weather conditions, including light and dark cycles, temperature, humidity, and rainfall. Equipped with a long-arc xenon lamp and rotating sample holders, this device ensures comprehensive and precise testing.

Features

  • Digitally set and closed-loop controlled light intensity with real-time monitoring for consistent accuracy.
  • 10.4-inch large color touch panel with multiple monitoring modes (animation, digital, graphical) for intuitive operation.
  • Key components like temperature and humidity sensors and ultrasonic humidifier sourced from the USA, Japan, and Germany.
  • Blackboard Thermometer (BPT), Standard Blackboard Thermometer (BST), and irradiance detector positioned alongside samples for true condition reflection.
  • Energy-efficient wireless light energy conversion technology for detection and data transmission.
  • Independently timed sample holders enable multiple simultaneous tests in one machine.
  • Industrial-grade cooling system ensures quick and stable temperature control.

Testing Method

Operational Safety Precautions

  1. Avoid opening the right-side cover during operation due to high-voltage electrical components exceeding 10kV.
  2. Never press the protection switch manually when the glass door is open or ignite the xenon lamp with the door open.
  3. Do not look directly at the xenon lamp’s light source without proper protection to prevent eye damage.
  4. Maintain focus during operation to avoid dangerous system failures.
  5. Disconnect the power supply before performing any maintenance, especially on electrical components, which should be handled by qualified technicians.
