BINDER MKF 720 dynamic climate chamber
The BINDER MKF 720 dynamic climate chamber has been specially developed to combine rapid temperature changes and precise humidity control in a single unit. Its high temperature and humidity stability in accordance with DIN and IEC standards makes it ideal for reliable material, climate and stability tests. Compared to conventional environmental simulation chambers, this model offers integrated water and waste water management, responsive vapour humidification and intuitive operation via a touchscreen controller. Users who rely on accurate and reproducible results benefit from the robust design, large usable volume and versatile programming options.
Performance features for demanding environmental simulation
This device is a combination of powerful temperature control and precise humidity control, opening up a wide range of possible applications. Key technical and functional aspects are:
- Temperature range from -40 °C to +180 °C
- Humidity range between 10% r.h. and 98% r.h.
- APT.line preheating chamber technology for homogeneous temperature distribution
- Fast-response steam humidification with capacitive humidity sensor
- Intuitive touchscreen controller with real-time and time segment programming
- Integrated water reservoir (20 litres) and automatic alarm management
- CFC-free refrigerant R-452A for environmentally friendly cooling
The interior has a volume of 734 litres and offers sufficient space for multi-stage load tests. The high-quality stainless steel finish ensures a low-contamination environment. In addition, two 80 mm feed-throughs facilitate the insertion of measuring probes or cables for customised test set-ups. The heated viewing window with LED interior lighting enables convenient observation of the samples without having to open the doors and the associated temperature fluctuations.
At ambient temperatures of up to 25 °C, the device can adjust the temperature with a heating and cooling rate of up to 4.8 K/min, which saves valuable time, especially during time-lapse tests or rapid temperature changes. Deviations remain extremely small: the temperature deviation over time is in the range of 0.1 to 0.5 K, depending on the setpoint, and even as low as 1.5 K in combination with humidity. An integrated line recorder and a versatile fault diagnosis system with visual and acoustic alarms increase process reliability. In addition, the internal data logger retains all relevant measured values and allows quick readout via USB.The DIN 12880 standard is fulfilled by a class 2 temperature selector limiter. This provides the necessary safety cover for particularly sensitive applications. In addition, four potential-free contacts offer extensive options for connecting external monitoring or alarm systems.Concrete application examples
- Long-term stability tests for pharmaceutical products under various temperature and humidity conditions.
- Stress tests on electronic components to validate quality and reliability during temperature changes
- Curing and drying processes for chemicals or rubber materials under precisely controlled climatic conditions.
- Climate and stress tests in the automotive or aerospace sector to test components for durability
FAQs
What is the maximum load per slide-in unit
?
Up to 40 kg can be loaded per drawer. The maximum total load is 160 kg.
Which standards are met by this appliance?
The appliance covers common DIN and IEC standards. For temperatures, DIN 12880 applies in particular, which is fulfilled by the class 2 temperature selector limiter.
What standards does this device fulfil?
How is a water shortage indicated
?
The controller issues an alarm message if there is a lack of water in the internal 20-litre fresh water canister. It is clearly visible on the touchscreen controller when water needs to be topped up.
What alarm signals are available
Both visual and audible alarms indicate deviations or faults. In addition, up to four potential-free switching contacts can be used for external signalling systems.
