Ci5000E Weather-Ometer

  • Overview +


    Ci5000e
    The Atlas Ci5000E Weather-Ometer is an advanced xenon-arc accelerated weathering instrument engineered to meet the evolving accelerated weathering requirements of the electronics industry. It is specifically designed to support the testing of powered electronic devices and components through a suite of integrated innovations. These include a cable-access porthole and slip-ring-enabled on-rack power delivery, enabling continuous operation under test conditions. An oscillating specimen rack enhances irradiance and temperature uniformity while simplifying cable management, and an optimized air baffle design improves chamber airflow for more consistent environmental control.
