A test chamber and a method for conditioning air in a temperature-insulated test space of a test chamber, which is sealable against an environment and serves for receiving test material, a temperature ranging from &#x2212;20&#xb0; C. to +180&#xb0; C. being produced within the test space by means of a cooling device of a temperature control device of the test chamber, using a cooling circuit with carbon dioxide (CO) as a cooling agent, using a heat exchanger in the test space, using a low-pressure compressor and using a high-pressure compressor downstream of the low-pressure compressor, using a gas cooler, using a storage means for the cooling agent and using an expansion valve, the temperature in the test space being controlled and/or regulated by means of a control device of the test chamber. A gaseous and/or liquid cooling agent is dosed in the storage means by means of a high-pressure valve of the cooling circuit downstream of the gas cooler, the storage means being connected to a medium-pressure side of the cooling circuit upstream of the high-pressure compressor and downstream of the low-pressure compressor via a medium-pressure bypass of the cooling circuit, the gaseous cooling agent being dosed in the medium-pressure side from the storage means by means of a medium-pressure valve when the low-pressure compressor is switched off.

Test chamber and a method for its control

An illumination module for a test chamber, a test chamber and a method for modifying a test chamber. The test chamber includes a temperature-insulated test space sealable against an environment for receiving test material. The illumination module can be disposed at least partially in the test space to illuminate the test space and includes an illuminant and a socket, a wall duct and a light conducting device. The wall duct is disposed in a wall surrounding the test space and extends from an inner side to an outer side of the wall. The light conducting device has a light exit area and a light entry area and is disposed within the wall duct. The socket is disposed at the outer end positioning the illuminant at the light entry area. The light exit area is disposed at the inner end.

Illumination device and test chamber

A temperature chamber for conditioning air includes a temperature-insulated space which receives test material, and a temperature control device for controlling the temperature of the test space. The temperature control device allows a temperature in a range of &#x2212;50&#xb0; C. to +180&#xb0; C. to be established within the space, and has a cooling device including a cooling circuit with a refrigerant, a heat exchanger, a compressor, a condenser, and an expansion element. A jet device is connected to a low-pressure side of the cooling circuit downstream of the heat exchanger and upstream of the compressor, a first bypass is connected to a high-pressure side of the cooling circuit downstream of the compressor, and the refrigerant is suppliable to the jet device from the high-pressure side via the first bypass as a driving fluid.

Temperature chamber and method

A test chamber and a method for conditioning air includes a temperature-insulated test space which can be closed off from the surroundings, and a temperature control device for controlling the temperature of the test space. The temperature control device allows a temperature in a temperature range of &#x2212;20&#xb0; C. to +180&#xb0; C. to be established within the test space, and includes a cooling circuit with a refrigerant, a heat exchanger, a compressor, a condenser, and an expansion element. The cooling circuit has an internal storage device connected to a high-pressure side of the cooling circuit upstream of the expansion element and downstream of the condenser and to a low-pressure side of the cooling circuit upstream of the compressor and downstream of the heat exchanger via a bypass of the cooling circuit. Thermal energy is stored and exchanged with the refrigerant through the internal storage device.

Test chamber and method

A method for conditioning a fluid in a temperature-insulated test space and a test space of a test chamber for receiving test materials. A cascading cooling device creates a particular temperature range within the test space, and the cooling device has a first cooling circuit including a cascading heat exchanger, a first compressor, a condenser and a first expanding element, and a second cooling circuit including a heat exchanger, a second compressor, the cascading heat exchanger and a second expanding element The cascading heat exchanger is cooled by the first cooling circuit, the heat exchanger is cooled by a bypass passing through the heat exchanger and bridging the cascading heat exchanger, the first compressor is turned off, and a first refrigerant is conducted and condensed in a gaseous state in the cascading heat exchanger on a low-pressure side of the bypass.
