New timelapse video - Automotive Temperature Profiling Exercise

TÜV SÜD's drive in chamber is a unique and versatile test facility, perfectly suited for test items too large for conventional climatic chambers.

In this example, TÜV SÜD engineers instrument a vehicle with thermocouple transducers and log the temperatures of components ready for a cold start test. Additional transducers monitor the temperature and humidity in the air surrounding the vehicle, ensuring that there is even temperature distribution and laminar airflow.

The convenience of the side access door allows the engineers to access the chamber without adversely affecting the chamber conditions.

The chamber is suitable for a range of industries that require the space or ease of access this chamber provides.
