BINDER KBF PRO 470-230V constant climate chamber
Introduction
The BINDER KBF PRO 470-230V constant climate chamber was specially developed for demanding tests, stability tests and professional material analyses. With its wide temperature range of -20 °C to +100 °C and a relative humidity of 10% to 98%, the appliance fulfils a wide range of laboratory and production requirements. Compared to similar climate chambers, it is characterised in particular by its innovative cooling technology, robust design and flexible expansion options, which enable precise and reliable long-term testing.
Performance features and technology
Thanks to energy-efficient inverter cooling technology and proven compressor technology, the cabinet offers outstanding temperature consistency, while the integrated capacitive humidity sensor precisely controls the humidity. The APT.line preheating chamber technology ensures that temperature fluctuations are minimised in all areas of the interior and samples are evenly conditioned. Some key features at a glance:
- Temperature range: -20 °C to +100 °C
- Humidity range: 10 % r.h. to 98 % r.h.
- Temperature deviation over time: ±0.1 K at 25 °C and 60 % RH
- Humidity deviation over time: ±1 % r.h.
- Maximum heat compensation: 800 W at 40 °C
- Energy consumption: 245 Wh-h (25 °C, 60 % r.h.) to 455 Wh-h (85 °C, 85 % r.h.)
- Interior made of stainless steel with telescopic rails
In addition, the climate-neutral refrigerant R-290 minimises the ecological footprint. An internal data logger is available for optimum data acquisition, the measured values of which can be conveniently read out via USB or Ethernet. The touchscreen programme controller with intuitive menu navigation allows parameters to be set quickly. A metal oxide-coated glass door prevents unnecessary temperature or humidity losses and provides a safe visual inspection. In addition to these features, the appliance has a TÜV-certified alarm function together with the class 3.3 temperature selector monitor in accordance with DIN 12880, which warns users of deviations in real time.
Ergonomics and safety
A particularly robust outer construction with HIT sandwich technology gives the cabinet stability. The double swivel castors, with brakes at the front, make it easy to move the cabinet. The built-in door heater prevents condensation on the outer door and ensures that the appliance works reliably even at low temperatures inside. In addition, the ergonomically adjustable operating area ensures convenient handling in everyday laboratory work.
Expansion options
Whether photostability tests in accordance with ICH guidelines or plant growth: the cabinet can be adapted to changing requirements with optional light modules. Thanks to its flexible water supply, the device can be installed almost anywhere. The standard slide-in grids (up to 16 possible) are stable and enable maximum utilisation of the 472 litre interior. Up to 40 kg can be loaded per grid, while the total load is designed for 90 kg.
Examples of use
- Long-term stability tests of pharmaceuticals and active ingredients to check quality and shelf life under defined temperature and humidity conditions.
- Material tests of plastics, paints and colours in the automotive sector, where both extremely low and high temperatures are required
- Optimised germination, cultivation and growth of plant samples in research using optional LED light modules.
- Test runs for electronic components that are tested for temperature sensitivity and moisture resistance.
FAQ
How exactly does the enclosure maintain temperature and humidity?
A specially customised system with APT.line preheating chamber and capacitive sensor continuously regulates the humidity. In addition, fans distribute temperature and humidity evenly in the interior, which means that very small spatial and temporal deviations can be realised.
What role does the inverter compressor play?
The inverter compressor continuously adjusts its output to the respective operating conditions. This reduces energy consumption and noise emissions, while the cooling capacity always remains constant.
Can the appliance be programmed for different climatic profiles?
Yes, thanks to the integrated touchscreen programme controller, various temperature and humidity profiles can be set and saved as programmes. This is suitable for complex test sequences and different climate profiles.
Is external documentation possible?
Yes, all relevant measurement data can be exported, documented and analysed directly via interfaces such as Ethernet and USB. This means that the testing process can be seamlessly traced.
Which tests are covered by DIN 12880
DIN 12880 defines strict requirements for the temperature accuracy and control accuracy of heating ovens. Compliance with this standard guarantees reliable temperature control, which is essential for quality tests in particular.
Conclusion
This oven enables precise long-term testing and flexible application options in research and industry. Modern inverter cooling technology, climate-neutral refrigerants and a robust design allow for safe and long-lasting use - even with constantly changing requirements. The combination of high temperature stability, reliable humidity control, extensive accessories and ergonomic operation makes the BINDER KBF PRO 470-230V constant climate chamber the ideal solution for a wide range of climate simulations and stability tasks in the laboratory and production environment.
