What is a Light Fastness Tester?

The main factors that cause materials to deteriorate are sunlight and humidity.Xenon Light Fastness Testers can simulate the hazards caused by sunlight, rain and dew. Xenon Light Fastness Testers use xenon lamps to simulate the effects of sunlight, and condensed moisture to simulate rain and dew. The material under test is placed in a cyclic program of alternating light and moisture at a certain temperature, and the hazards of being outdoors for months or even years can be reproduced in a matter of days or weeks. Artificially accelerated weathering test data can assist in the selection of new materials, the retrofitting of existing materials, and the evaluation of how changes in formulation affect the durability of a product.

Light Fastness Test Chamber is mainly used for light and climate color fastness and light aging test of textile, printing and dyeing, apparel, automobile interior parts, geotextile, leather, artificial board, wood flooring, plastic and other colored materials.

• The 2500W long arc xenon lamp is used to simulate the solar spectrum. High transmittance of filter combinations and use 95% of the transmittance filters and filter cartridges. With Low power consumption but achieve the same irradiation light requirements. To make the machine is more energy saving and environment friendly.

• Online control of light intensity: It can monitor and adjust the light intensity in real time through online control to ensure the stability of light during the test.

• Automatic monitoring and compensation of light energy: adopting advanced sensor technology to realize automatic monitoring and compensation of light energy to ensure the accuracy and reliability of test data.

• Temperature, humidity closed-loop control: the use of advanced control algorithms to achieve the closed-loop control of temperature and humidity in the test chamber to ensure the consistency and stability of the test environment.

• Blackboard temperature loop control: According to the experimental requirements, blackboard temperature loop control can be set to simulate the temperature changes in the actual use environment.

• gb/t 8427, gb/t 8430, gb/t 14576, gb/t 15102, gb/t 15104, iso 105-b02/b04, iso 12040, iso 1134.

• ATCC TM 16, AATCC 169, ASTM D5010, ASTM D4303,1, JIS L0843, M&S C09/C09A

AATCC TM 16 is one of the most important standards for light fastness testing of textiles. It provides scientific, systematic and standardized testing methods and procedures, which provide strong support for product quality control and technological innovation in the textile printing and dyeing industry.
