Illumination
- Illumination with fluorescent tubes/LED accounts for artificial daylight.
INSULATION:
- In Insect Test Chamber the Gap between the walls is filled with Polyurethane Foam (PUF) Insulation.
Heating and Cooling Mode
- Cooling: An energy-efficient cooling unit is installed in our temperature and humidity control cabinets to enable biochemical demand, cyclic, and growth studies at lower room temperatures.
- HEATING: Sealed Inconel heaters are located behind the test space in the path of the circulated air.
- They are properly insulated to withstand high and low temperatures and high surface temperatures on the heater surface.
- The system is protected from overheating with the help of a bimetallic strip which cuts off the heater when the temperature exceeds a predefined limit.
- Fitted with 02 Nos. Fan for cooling & heating). Technical Design and Construction Silent fan motor to maintain uniform temperature and humidity.
AIR CIRCULATION SYSTEM:
- The forced air circulation system provided in the chamber circulates air from the test space, over the cooling and heating coils, and back into the test space.
- The door interlock synchronized with the air circulation system
