Natural Weathering Testing
-
Atlas Material Testing Solutions
The increased demand for getting decision-making data as fast as possible makes more and more companies turn to accelerated weathering. But no accelerated weathering program can be complete without the confirmation from and correlation to natural weathering. Natural weathering provides the data you need to ensure that your product is covered against costly liability issues.

HVFAA Horizontal Vertical FAA Flame Chamber
-
Atlas Material Testing Solutions
The Atlas HVFAA Horizontal Vertical Flame Chamber provides the most accurate means for determining the flammability of aircraft cabin and cargo compartment materials, liners and waste stowage compartment materials, and electric wire. The large volume chamber prevents oxygen depletion during tests. Three digital timers with remote control make specimen event timing precise and convenient. To ensure accurate and repeatable tests, an optional burner flame temperature verification kit is available. The HVFAA is the optimal instrument for conducting repeatable FAA flammability tests and is used in the FAA’s training facility.

Atlas Material Testing Solutions
The climates of southern Florida and central Arizona are recognized as global benchmarks for natural weathering environments. The warm, humid, subtropical environment of our outdoor test sites in Miami and the intense sun and arid climate of our site in Phoenix are some of the harshest climates to which your products can be exposed. Often the best natural weathering test scenario requires testing in a variety of climates. For that reason, Atlas offers the world’s largest network of outdoor weathering test facilities with more than 20 sites worldwide.

Natural Weathering Testing Sites
-
Atlas Material Testing Solutions
It is not practical to determine the weathering characteristics of materials in all of the world's climates. Therefore, benchmark climates selected for exposure testing are based on their known severity for the weathering of materials and the anticipated market of the product. The major marketing area of the material should be taken into consideration when selecting suitable climates and sites for weathering tests. Each class of materials is sensitive to a specific group of environmental parameters. Humidity, rain, and salt spray can cause corrosion of metals. For plastics and coatings, ultraviolet radiation, temperature, and moisture can initiate material degradation.

Static Weathering Testing
-
Atlas Material Testing Solutions
Atlas' outdoor exposure sites provide a wide range static exposure testing for a variety of materials and end use conditions. Static (real-time) weathering testing capabilities include direct exposure using fixed or variable angle, backed or unbacked racks; indirect (under glass) exposure for interior materials; and black box exposure for paints and coating materials. Contact one of our qualified representatives to see which tests are right for you.

SUNTEST Family
-
Atlas Material Testing Solutions
SUNTEST instruments are compact material test chambers for accelerated lightfastness and weathering testing based on filtered xenon lamp technology. All SUNTEST chambers offer a horizontal test plane which is particularly useful for testing 3-D specimens. Lightfastness testing aims at testing a material under solar radiation and temperature only – Weathering testing adds water and moisture to the test.
