FAQ

1. What test modes does the GX75 support?

The GX75 supports multiple test modes, including exposure only, exposure with front spray, dark only, dark with rear spray, and dark with double spray. These modes allow the simulation of sunlight, rainfall, dew, and nighttime conditions, enabling realistic accelerated weathering of materials and products.

2. How many samples can be tested at once?

Up to 63 samples can be tested simultaneously, with each sample measuring 150×70×1 mm. This capacity enables batch testing for automotive, electronics, chemical, or material R&D and quality control.

3. How is irradiance controlled during the test?

The chamber maintains irradiance at 40–120 W/m² (300–400 nm) using inner quartz and outer #295 filters. Continuous monitoring ensures precise and reproducible irradiance, while the water-cooled xenon lamp provides stable output and temperature.

4. Which industries benefit most from the GX75?

Industries such as automotive, electronics, chemical, mechanical, and material testing benefit from GX75 testing. It is suitable for components like automotive interiors, LCD materials, industrial machinery parts, and polymer or metal materials, providing accelerated weathering data to support product development and durability verification.
