How to help you choose a low-cost temperature chamber, LIB is the expert! If you want to buy a suitable temperature test chamber, you do not only need to consider the price, here are several important factors affecting the temperature chamber: temperature range, size, custom function, transportation, post-maintenance costs, after-sales, etc.
1. temperature range
-
Wider Temperature Range = Higher Cost
Chambers with extreme temperature ranges (e.g., -70 °C to 180 °C) are much more expensive than those with a moderate range (e.g., -20 °C to 100 °C).
Lower temperature capability requires more powerful refrigeration systems (such as cascade refrigeration or liquid nitrogen cooling).
Higher temperature capability needs better insulation and heating elements.
-
Cooling Method & Refrigeration System
Single-stage refrigeration (typically for -20 °C and above) is cheaper.
Cascade refrigeration (for -70 °C and below) is more complex and costly.
Liquid nitrogen (LN2) or CO2 cooling systems (for ultra-low temperatures) further increase the price.
LIB temperature chamber uses a mechanical compressor for refrigeration, providing a wider temperature range at the same price, while meeting the premise of a GWP of less than 150. At the same time, mechanical refrigeration can achieve the same cooling effect at a lower cost than liquid nitrogen or carbon dioxide refrigeration.

Material & Insulation Quality
Temperature chambers that handle freezing or heat need high-performance insulation and special materials to prevent heat loss or excessive condensation, adding to the cost.
2. Size
There is no doubt that larger chambers require more consumables, more powerful cooling systems, and larger test spaces make it harder to maintain temperature uniformity. LIB has many years of experience in the field of environmental test equipment manufacturing, and we can achieve a larger test space and the same stable cooling function for the same cost.
If you order a temperature test chamber in LIB, we will provide you with the most suitable size according to your needs to avoid cost waste. We not only have a variety of standard sizes of temperature boxes, but also according to your test parts, placing site to customize more suitable for your solution.

3. custom function
The application field of the temperature test chamber is very broad, so its test parts are usually various. In order to meet their own special testing needs, some customers often propose special customized requirements. For example, battery testing requires explosion-proof functionality.
Explosion-proof window
The non-standard customization that can be achieved by the LIB temperature chamber includes but is not limited to: appearance, opening, multiple language switching, explosion-proof, etc.
