IEC and UL Tests
IEC61646 85℃ PV Panel Temperature Change Tets Chamber
All of the IEC 61215 & 61646 PV environmental tests chamber are used for can be done in the same test chamber.
It may be better, however, to consider multiple chambers to save time and electricity due to the lengths of the tests:
•The temperature cycling test may last up to seven weeks.
•The damp heat test is six weeks long.
•The damp heat test requires only minimal refrigeration,reducing capital and energ costs if a dedicated model is selected for this test.

Test Cycle
IEC61646 85℃ PV Panel Temperature Change Tets Chamber
◆Thermal Cycle Test
Requires temperature cycling between 85°C and -40°C,
50 or 200 times.
◆Humidity Freeze Test
Cycling between hot/humid 85°C/85%RH and subfreezing -40°C ten times, with extended soaks at 85/85.
◆Damp Heat Test
A long term, 1,000 hour, test at 85°C/85%.
