The SUGA GX25 Xenon Lamp Weathering Tester is a compact yet powerful environmental simulation instrument specifically engineered to evaluate the lightfastness and weather resistance of daily commodities, packaging, and high-tech components. By utilizing a 2.5kW water-cooled xenon arc lamp, this tester provides a stable and accurate reproduction of the solar spectrum, allowing you to observe the degradation of materials caused by sunlight, heat, and humidity. It is an essential tool for manufacturers looking to predict product lifespan and maintain color stability in diverse consumer and industrial markets.

Applications

Traditional Automotive: Brakes, steering wheels, manual transmissions, interior components, airbags, child safety seats

LCD: Materials (backlighting, color filters, glass substrates, liquid crystal materials, polarizers, driver assemblies), application products (TVs, monitors, computers, tablets, smartphones, wearables, etc.)

Electrical & Electronics: Home appliances, office equipment

Pharmaceuticals: Medicinal products

Food: Beverage production

Standards

ISO 4892-2: Plastics—Methods of exposure to laboratory light sources (Xenon-arc lamps).

ISO 105-B02: Textiles—Tests for color fastness to artificial light (Xenon arc fading lamp test).

ASTM G155: Standard Practice for Operating Xenon Arc Light Apparatus for Exposure of Nonmetallic Materials.

AATCC TM16.3: Colorfastness to Light: Xenon-Arc.

JIS L0843: Test method for color fastness to xenon arc lamp light.

JIS K7350-2: Plastics—Methods of exposure to laboratory light sources—Part 2: Xenon-arc lamps.

Features

Stable Water-Cooled Source: The 2.5kW water-cooled system manages the thermal load of the xenon lamp more efficiently than air-cooled alternatives, providing superior spectral stability and longer lamp life.

High-Temperature Capability: You can achieve a Black Panel Temperature (BPT) of up to $110^{\circ}\text{C}$, allowing for the simulation of extreme heat conditions found in automotive interiors or tropical outdoor environments.

Large Throughput for Compact Size: Despite its manageable footprint, the GX25 can accommodate up to 108 specimens simultaneously, making it ideal for high-volume batch testing.

Precise Dark Cycle Simulation: The system allows you to transition to a high-humidity dark mode ($95\%\text{ RH}$), effectively simulating nighttime dew and moisture absorption.

Customizable Spectrum: By utilizing specific filter combinations like the #295 outer filter, you can tailor the UV cutoff to match specific outdoor or indoor sunlight conditions.
