Environmental Testing
Guarantee top performance in every condition
Environmental testing
Technical products are frequently exposed to natural, induced or combined environments like climatic and/or mechanical stresses. in some cases, every day of every week. Heat, cold, damp, wind and weather, extreme environmental conditions can have an extreme effect on how everything functions.
What is environmental testing?
Environmental testing simulates the different climatic conditions and mechanical stress that products are exposed during their lifetime. Sometimes environmental testing will expose weaknesses in a product’s design or performance that could occur in service, particularly at extreme levels. Manufacturers are constantly striving to demonstrate that their products are safe, reliable and compliant in every operational scenario.
Why is environmental testing important?
In general, environmental tests can prove the reliability of your products. You can demonstrate that your products have the build quality to work perfectly, no matter what the conditions. During testing, possible weaknesses can be identified and product improvements can be initiated at an early stage.
While ensuring that your products perform correctly in various environmental conditions you can demonstrate compliance of your products with international regulations, thereby increasing the possibility to gain global market access quicker and much easier.
How we can help you?
With us as your partner, you can be confident that your testing needs are covered, no matter how complex your product is or to which industry sector it belongs to. With globally accredited environmental testing laboratories (EN ISO/IEC 17025), we verify the fitness for use of components, technical equipment and products.
Mixed Flowing Gas (MFG) Testing
Any product or system component that’s exposed to the air has the potential to incur damage due to atmospheric conditions and contaminants. For telecommunications, aerospace, automotive and other equipment, these conditions can lead to premature wear and potential liability issues down the line. As a result, air testing equipment has become an important part of the quality-control process.
Temperature and humidity
Temperature and humidity testing determines how components, subsystems and complete systems behave in severe environments that involve elevated temperatures and high or fluctuating relative humidity. The tests can be static with constant temperature and humidity, they can involve the cycling of both, they can be temperature-humidity bias tests (where the moisture is used to induce a failure in an electrical device) or some combination of all of these.
