Double-Layer Temperature and Humidity Test Chamber
Run two different environmental profiles at the same time without installing two separate cabinets. Each upper and lower chamber has its own controller and independent start/stop operation for parallel R&D, verification and quality-control testing.
Why Use a Double-Layer Chamber?
Two simultaneous profiles
Run different setpoints, programmes or specimen groups in the upper and lower zones during the same shift.
Higher laboratory throughput
Increase available test capacity without allocating the floor area required for two standalone chambers.
Separation of test work
Keep development and routine QC, different batches or different temperature-humidity conditions operationally separate.

Confirm True Independence Between the Two Layers
Control independence
Verify separate programmes, sensors, alarms, start/stop control and data files for upper and lower chambers.
Thermal independence
Define simultaneous worst-case profiles and confirm one layer’s load does not invalidate the other layer’s performance.
Utility independence
Confirm shared versus separate refrigeration, humidification, water, drainage and electrical protection architecture.
Construction and Daily-Use Features
SUS304 workspaces
Brushed stainless-steel chambers, silicone seals and locking doors support repeated climatic exposure.
Adjustable sample racks
Rack height can be adapted to the specimen, but loading must preserve supply and return airflow.

Heated observation windows and selectable 50 or 100 mm cable ports support monitoring and powered tests.

Centrifugal blowers, adjustable deflectors and supply/return ducts distribute conditioned air in each zone.
Humidity system
Independent humidification and evaporator-based dehumidification are stated; confirm water and control architecture per layer.
Compact vertical layout
Stacked zones increase throughput per floor area, but room height, service clearance and transport access must be checked.

Perguntas Frequentes
Can the two layers run different test conditions?
Yes. The page states that each cabinet has its own controller and can start or stop independently. Confirm the full thermal and utility architecture in the quotation.
Is the listed capacity total volume?
The table describes the volume of the upper or lower layer. For example, the 150 L model provides two nominal 150 L workspaces.
Can one layer run temperature-only while the other runs humidity?
This should be possible only when the selected configuration provides independent humidity and refrigeration control. State the simultaneous profiles for confirmation.
Does 20–98% RH apply at every temperature?
No rectangular envelope should be assumed. Request the combined temperature-RH chart for the selected configuration.
Can powered specimens be tested?
Yes when port, cable, specimen heat and safety requirements are included in the engineering calculation.

Send both layer profiles, specimen drawings, quantities, mass, powered heat, interfaces, utilities and simultaneous FAT requirements.
Configure Both Test Zones Before Quotation
Send the upper- and lower-layer profiles separately. DERUI can confirm capacity, temperature options, humidity envelope, interfaces, utilities and simultaneous acceptance testing.
