Weather-Ometer

The Ci5000 is approved by many OEMs in the automotive, paints & coatings and plastics industries as the exclusive platform to deliver accurate, reproducible and repeatable results for predicting service life. The Ci5000 has been certified CE, UL, CSA, ISO and EN compliant. Unmatched Repeatability and Reproducibility Design and engineering innovations in the airflow, irradiance and control systems have dramatically reduced variability in critical test parameters. As a result, the Ci5000 achieves new levels of temperature, humidity and light exposure uniformity. Now available in a low voltage model (240V) and standard voltage model (480V) depending on incoming power configurations at the customer's location. 12000 W water cooled xenon arc lamp system Total exposure area: 11,000 cm 2 (1,705 in 2) 3-tier inclined specimen rack TFT full color 12" touch screen control panel display of all test parameters Direct Setting and control of Irradiance: 340nm, 420nm, 300-400nm or Lux Direct setting and control of Black Panel Temperature; uninsulated (BPT) or insulated (BST) Direct Setting and control of relative humidity Direct setting and control of specimen chamber air temperature Display of diagnostic messages 14 factory pre-programmed test methods Space for 12 custom programs; sub-cycle capability Multi-Language capability (English, French, German, Spanish, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Turkish) Streaming data output via ethernet or USB port.
