COMBINED ENVIRONMENTAL SIMULATION

CATH Test Chamber

A Combined Altitude, Temperature, and Humidity (CATH) test chamber is an advanced environmental simulation device used for rigorous testing of materials, components, and products under simultaneously controlled altitude, temperature, and humidity conditions. Widely used in aerospace, automotive, defence, and electronics industries to evaluate performance, durability, and reliability in extreme environments.

TECHNICAL OVERVIEW

Engineered for combined environment testing

Advanced capabilities for replicating high-altitude, high-humidity and extreme thermal conditions in a single, repeatable cycle.

01

Altitude Control

Simulates low-pressure environments to mimic altitudes ranging from sea level to over 0.001 mbar. Essential for aerospace systems, avionics, and high-elevation applications.

02

Temperature Control

Recreates extreme heat and cold conditions across a wide thermal envelope — typically from −70 °C to +180 °C. Essential for thermal cycling and heat resistance testing.

03

Humidity Control

Simulates relative humidity (RH) from 20 % to 98 %. Crucial for testing moisture-related performance issues such as corrosion, condensation, and material degradation.

04

Combined Environment Testing

Simultaneous control of all three parameters ensures accurate replication of real-world conditions — for example, high-altitude, high-humidity environments combined with extreme temperature variations.
