Choose a heated and refrigerated VivTek test chamber by specimen fit, temperature profile and how the test needs to be monitored.
Where to start
Start with the largest specimen or fixture and the complete temperature program. Compare the chamber’s listed range with the conditions required at the test load, then ask for performance documentation for that setup.
The TC8010 table lists 70, 160, 300 and 500 L models with four to twelve shelves. Compare internal dimensions and shelf configuration against the complete specimen and fixture.
Compare specimen space and shelf count
TC8010-70 and TC8010-160 list 70 and 160 L chambers, with four and six shelves respectively.
TC8010-300 and TC8010-500 list 300 and 500 L chambers, with eight and twelve shelves respectively.
The volume describes the chamber. Compare the listed interior width, depth and height against the entire specimen, fixture and required clearance.
What to include in your quote request
Supply specimen and fixture dimensions, load, and whether it releases heat while running.
Provide the temperature setpoints, time at each step and any required transition times. Ask what is documented at your intended load and ambient conditions.
Specify any feedthroughs, observation, recording or sensor requirements. Check chamber access and utilities before ordering.
Specifications and options are from the linked Solution Instruments product listings. Confirm model-specific configuration and included accessories before ordering.
