Detect product flaws before they reach your customer
We provide a large selection of thermal shock chambers to accommodate various types of product testing. Thermal Shock Chambers perform tailored environmental stress screening of component and board electronic assemblies. Our unique chamber design transfers product between two extreme temperature-controlled chambers, passing equal volumes of high velocity conditioned air over the product and resulting in rapid product temperature changes. The induced thermal stresses can reveal hidden manufacturing defects in electronic sub-assemblies and other components by the expansion and contraction of critical parts.
- Compact thermal shock chambers - vertical thermal shock chambers for testing small electronics & assemblies
- Large thermal shock chambers - vertical thermal shock chambers for testing large products & batches
- Double duty thermal shock chambers - thermal Shock Chambers for testing large product loads

Instrumentation:
- CSZ EZT-570 Touch Screen Controller is designed to save chamber programming and setup time. Standard features data logging, data file access via memory stick or PC, Ethernet control and monitoring, alarm notification via email or phone text message, full system security, online help & voice assistance in multiple languages and more.
- A Temperature Limit and alarm is included to protect your product.
Communications:
- RS-232/485 serial communications, Ethernet control and monitoring offer a selection of communications options.
- EZ-View optional software allows user to control and monitor up to 20 chambers from any location.
Cabinet:
- Rapid airflow through the workspace. This is the cornerstone to successful performance of MIL-STD 883G, Method 1010.8 (Test Condition C) and for Environmental Stress Screening. Provides an average of 500 feet per minute air velocity over the devices under test to facilitate fast part temperature change rates
- Utilizes electric actuator for lift mechanism for smooth product transfer less than 5 seconds. No special utilities such as air are needed.
- Travelling Cable port for powering up device under test.
- Removable panels provide easy access to all systems for maintenance purposes.
- Door safety feature prevents the transfer basket from moving when door is opened.
- All liners are constructed from Type 304 brushed stainless steel that is easy to clean. All seams are continuously welded to form a hermetically sealed unit to prevent moisture migration.
- The chamber exterior is constructed of formed sheet steel for structural strength and finished with a durable powder coat finish or textured polyurethane paint.
Refrigeration:
- Pressure gauges allow operating pressures to be continuously monitored and provide early warning indicators.
- CSZ test chambers utilize refrigerants which are environmentally safe, non-flammable, non-explosive and have a Zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP).
- High volume airflow system includes robust air circulator motors that provide better airflow and improves controllability within the chamber. Better airflow minimises temperature gradients and accelerates temperature change rates of the device under test.
