Testing Capabilities

The combination of 7 ovens provide the ability to test specimens at different temperatures & different humidity at the same time. The first one of them is also able to test specimens which probably will release explosive gas, e.g., the battery, the super capacitor. The last 4 chambers are also able to do the thermal ramp test to for specimens to understand the failure mechanism under specific thermal shock and profile. All of the chambers can be remotely controlled.
