In the field of materials science and engineering, xenon arc weatherometers, as a key test equipment, play an indispensable role in assessing the durability and stability of materials under simulated natural environmental conditions. However, due to its working principle and complex operating mechanism, safety must be put first when using the xenon arc weatherometer , and a series of precautions must be strictly followed.

This guide will show you how to safely operate the chamber, optimize test results, and leverage LIB industry’s expertise for maximum performance and long-term reliability.
The xenon arc chamber generates full-spectrum radiation that closely replicates natural sunlight across UV, visible, and infrared ranges. This enables realistic simulation of outdoor conditions, accelerating aging tests while maintaining highly accurate results.
Equipped with precise temperature and humidity sensors, the xenon test chamber continuously monitors environmental conditions, feeding data to an advanced programmable controller. This ensures stable, repeatable testing, compliant with ISO 4892 and ASTM G155 standards.
Safety is essential—not only to protect operators but also to ensure consistent and reliable test outcomes.
– Prevent Shocks, Protect Your Equipment
- Operates at 220V high-voltage; proper grounding is mandatory.
- Inspect cords and plugs regularly; replace damaged components immediately.
- Internal temperatures can rise significantly; wait for stabilization and use protective gear before opening doors.
- Fans, turntables, and lamp mechanisms can cause injury. Inspect and maintain regularly, ensuring all guards are in place.
- Verify door locks and seals before testing to prevent accidental exposure to heat and radiation.
- Install in a well-ventilated area with enough space for heat dissipation and maintenance.
- Conducted by qualified technicians following LIB industry instructions.
- Ensure secure, leak-free connections for power, water, and drainage.
- Verify lamp voltage/current, light intensity, temperature, and humidity control before the first test.
- Observe for flicker or abnormal lamp behavior and confirm stable environmental readings.
- Oversized or irregular samples can interfere with airflow and light distribution. Ensure samples fit chamber specifications.
- Remove dust, oil, and residues.
- Optional pre-treatment: cleaning, sanding, or coating depending on material and test goals.
- Operators should be familiar with display screens, control interfaces, and button functions before running tests.
- Key parameters: light intensity, temperature, humidity, test duration.
- Avoid arbitrary adjustments; incorrect settings may invalidate results or damage equipment.
- Observe lamp brightness, sensor readings, airflow, and refrigeration systems during testing.
- Stop immediately if abnormalities occur to prevent further issues.
- Clean lamp surfaces, filters, sample racks, and sinks to prevent contaminant buildup.
- Aging lamps reduce light intensity and alter spectral distribution. Replace per manufacturer recommendations.
- Regularly check temperature and humidity sensors, electrical connections, and heating/cooling systems to ensure stable performance.
