Description

Features of Light Fastness Tester TF420

The Fastness to Light Tester TF420 achieves a digital setting of light intensity.

Offering real-time monitoring, closed-loop control, and automatic adjustment to meet diverse standards, the system provides a comprehensive solution for precise testing. Additionally, it supports standard settings of 420nm; moreover, options for 340nm, 300–400nm, and 300–800nm are available upon request. This flexibility allows users to tailor their testing conditions to specific requirements, enhancing the overall efficiency and effectiveness of their processes.

The Fastness to Light Tester TF420 effectively simulates natural sunlight and various climate conditions.

It utilizes a 2500W long-arc xenon lamp to replicate the daylight spectrum; furthermore, it offers multiple operating modes, including rain, alternating light, dark, public rotation, and self-rotation. As a result, this versatility allows it to accurately recreate real climate scenarios, enhancing the reliability of the testing process.

The Xenon Tester TF420 delivers precise and consistent testing for temperature and humidity.

It features an industrial temperature control system for cooling, a multi-stage ultrasonic humidification system with intelligent control, and the ability to quickly adjust the test chamber’s temperature and humidity, ensuring reliable and stable test conditions.

Why Light Fastness Tester TF420 Stands Out?

Enhanced Accuracy in Xenon Testing.

Utilizing the black panel thermometer (BPT), standard black panel thermometer (BST), radiometer, and samples collected from the same station (equidistant) for detection, the measured data is transmitted synchronously using wireless radio frequency technology.

Efficient mode lowers operating costs.

All xenon test specimen clamps offer independent timing, allowing simultaneous testing of different samples. This feature facilitates monitoring during Xenon Arc Testing and is both practical and cost-effective.

Color touch screen display, a variety of expressions.

Color touchscreen display with various visual options, including digital formats and graphs. It can show real-time data for light irradiance, temperature, and humidity curves.

The TF420 Xenon Tester can run for a long time.

This Sunlight and Weathering Fastness Test Chamber can operate continuously for up to 1000 hours, accommodating high-capacity, long-duration test applications and specific customer requirements.

The Xenon Test Chamber TF420 offers a competitive price point.

The TESTEX Weatherometer is available at an affordable purchase price, along with low lamp costs and operating expenses, ensuring stable operation. Now, even the smallest laboratories can invest in a Light Fastness Tester.

Application of Light Fastness Tester TF420

Textile light fastness is crucial. The Xenon Tester TF420 is a key tool for textiles. You can use it to test the color and performance changes of many materials. These include textiles, leather, and fake leather. They also include garments, auto parts, plastics, dyes, paints, and other colored materials. Adjust the temperature, humidity, and rain in the Weatherometer. Use a xenon lamp and light filter to mimic daylight. These tests check the material’s light fastness, sunlight weather fastness, and light aging resistance.

TESTEX Light Fastness Tester TF420 features advanced multi-point change functions, enabling precise online control of light intensity. It automatically detects and adjusts light energy, ensuring optimal conditions. The closed-loop control system meticulously regulates temperature and humidity, while also controlling the blackboard’s temperature circuit. You can call this Weatherometer a Xenon Test Chamber or a Fadeo meter. This is based on these applications. Besides, it can shorten the testing time. It uses xenon arc irradiation in a chamber. So, we can also call it a Xenon Tester.

Xenon Test Chamber TF420 applies to Light Fastness Test iso 105 b02. It also applies to AATCC16.3 Color Fastness to Light. Five xenon testing methods for ISO 105 B02 can be acquired in this post. Also, you can easily get your sample’s lightfastness rating from this Xenon Tester.

Test Principle of the Fastness to Light Test, How is Colour Fastness to Light tested?

The TESTEX Xenon Arc Test Chamber utilizes a full-spectrum xenon arc lamp as its light source, paired with a specialized filter glass to replicate the specific sunlight spectrum that reaches the specimen. The test simulates natural environmental conditions through a combination of temperature, humidity, rain, and condensation. After the exposure, we evaluate the material for signs of fading, discoloration, brittleness, and cracking, which indicate its light fastness and aging properties. We also check for color peeling and other potential issues. The degree of fading and aging is assessed using a gray sample card and blue wool standard.

Know More about Fastness to Light Test

Lightfastness, also named “sunlight fastness”. Lightfastness is the ability of a product to keep its color. It must do so after being in the sun. The lightfastness scale ranges from poor to good, divided into 1 ~ 8 levels. Weather fastness is the ability to resist aging from sunlight, heat, cold, wind, and rain. Products like plastic, rubber, coatings, and fibers usually need to do those tests.

When the xenon testing is running, adjust the chamber’s temperature, humidity, and rain. Also, adjust other test conditions. The xenon lamp simulates sunlight. It tests the material’s ability to resist fading and aging. For more information about lightfastness, welcome to visit our website’s blog.
