Features and Benefits of UV Light Degradation Chamber
Multiple UV wavelength options
Selectable UVA (315–400 nm) and UVB (280–315 nm) lamps accurately simulate different sunlight conditions, allowing you to select the appropriate UV spectrum based on material type, test standard, and aging objective.
Integrated environmental control
Precisely coordinated control of UV light, temperature, humidity, and water spray enables stable and repeatable weathering cycles, ensuring consistent test results across long-term and comparative studies.
Accelerated aging efficiency
High-intensity UV exposure significantly shortens aging cycles, helping you identify material degradation trends earlier, reduce validation time, and accelerate product development and qualification.
Flexible specimen configuration
Customizable workroom sizes and specimen holders—including standard flat panels and tailored 3D fixtures—support a wide range of sample geometries, making the chamber suitable for both standard testing and real-product evaluation.

Frequently Asked Questions – UV Light Degradation Chamber
Q1: Which UV lamp should I choose for my material testing—UVA or UVB?
UVA lamps (such as UVA-340) closely simulate natural sunlight and are widely used for plastics, coatings, rubber, and automotive materials.
UVB lamps (UVB-313) deliver higher-energy radiation for accelerated or worst-case aging evaluations.
LIB industry can recommend the optimal lamp type and test configuration based on your material, standard, and target service life.
Q2: Can the test parameters be adjusted to match our internal or industry standards?
Yes. UV irradiance, temperature, humidity, and water spray cycles are fully programmable and repeatable.
The chamber supports test profiles in accordance with ASTM, ISO, JIS, as well as customized enterprise specifications.
Q3: How is long-term test accuracy and repeatability ensured?
The system includes a UV radiometer for irradiance monitoring and calibration, ensuring stable output during extended aging tests.
Combined with precise temperature and humidity control, this guarantees reliable and comparable test results over time.
Q4: Can the chamber handle non-standard samples or special test requirements?
Yes. LIB industry offers custom workroom sizes, 3D specimen holders, and fixture designs for irregular or oversized samples.
