Temperature test chambers from the APT.line™

FP 53

Temperature test chamber with forced convection

FP series chambers are designed for the most demanding test applications and are particularly effective, thanks to their extensive programming abilities. The forced convection reliably facilitates quick drying times as well as extra rapid heating-up, even with fully loaded chambers.

All technical data are specified for units with standard equipment at an ambient temperature of 25 °C and a voltage fluctuation of ±10 %. The temperature data are determinated in accordance to factory standard following DIN 12880 respecting the recommended wall clearances of 10 % of the height, width and depth of the inner chamber. All indications are average values, typical for units produced in series. We reserve the right to alter technical specifications at all times.
