Thermal Vacuum Chamber

Space program as a way of mitigating risk and preparing for the extreme temperatures encountered at orbit.
Thermal vacuum chamber. Our line of small satellite test systems can provide you with drop in place test solutions for compliance with gsfc std 7000 or mil std 1540 test standards. Thermal conditioning units tcus are the most important subsystem of a thermal vacuum chamber. Thermal vacuum chambers are frequently used for testing spacecraft or parts thereof under a simulated. Thermal vacuum space chambers thermal product solutions carries tenney s vacuum test chambers to subject your products to various types of pressure conditions and simulation.
Used to subject the dut device under test to the alternation of high and low temperatures within a temperature range that is typically 100 c to 100 c while the pressure is maintained at values below 10 6 mbar high vacuum while the satellite is subjected to thermal cycling it is possible for rf radiofrequency signals to be exchanged across the chamber through. Thermal vacuum cycling with radiator plates or solar simulator bake outs outgassing tests ambient pressure cycling and leakage tests. Multimode cooling thermal vacuum chamber system. A thermal vacuum chamber is a vacuum chamber in which the radiative thermal environment is controlled.
0 6 x 0 5 x 0 4 m 175 to 200 c our core capabilities comprise. Testing in a thermal vacuum chamber is a requirement for compliance with a variety of regulatory standards in the aerospace and defense industries. The abbess thermal vacuum chamber system shown allows article s under test placed inside to be exposed to high vacuum 10e 8 range as well as heated and cooled via conductive contact with the gold plated copper thermal plate. Typically the thermal environment is achieved by passing liquids or fluids through thermal shrouds for cold temperatures or through the application of thermal lamps for high temperatures.
Rvs knows that thermal vacuum testing is the last thing you want to worry about as your launch date approaches. Dynavac has designed constructed and serviced thermal vacuum chambers to test space equipment ranging from small electronic components to complete satellites. Thermal vacuum testing has been employed since the beginning of the u s. Our custom thermal vacuum test systems for space simulation replicate extreme temperature and pressure environments to enable the testing and validation of components and sub assemblies for a variety industries including space simulation aerospace and aircraft.
Using high vacuum pumps thermal platens and shrouds our thermal vacuum systems can reach a broad temperature and vacuum range.
