Tips: A Comprehensive Guide to Connecting Compressed Air Pipes for Thermal Shock Test Chambers

Thermal shock test chambers, as precision testing equipment, rely heavily on compressed air for their stable operation. Regardless of the chamber’s structural design, compressed air serves as a critical component in driving rapid temperature transitions and ensuring precise temperature control within the test zone. Therefore, correctly connecting the compressed air pipe is an indispensable step in guaranteeing the efficient functioning of the test chamber. So, how can one accomplish this task efficiently and safely? The secret lies in adhering to the correct operational procedures.

Detailed Connection Steps
‌Air Source Connection‌: First, connect the external air source to the intake port of the test equipment’s air intake pressure regulator using an appropriate air hose. This step is fundamental for ensuring subsequent pressure regulation and the normal operation of the test chamber.

‌Air Hose Preparation‌: Prior to connection, ensure that the end of the air hose is flat and free from sharp edges to prevent damage or air leakage when inserting it into the quick-connect fitting. Once prepared, insert the air hose into the quick-connect fitting, ensuring a tight and leak-free connection.

‌Pressure Regulation‌: Thermal shock test chambers have specific requirements for the input air pressure, typically ranging between 3 to 5 kg. However, the actual operating pressure within the test chamber needs to be precisely adjusted to around 2 kg using the pressure regulator. For the spray function, its pressure regulator should be separately adjusted to approximately 1 kg. When adjusting, first lift up the pressure regulator knob, rotate it clockwise to increase the pressure, and counterclockwise to decrease it. After adjustment, always check the pressure gauge to ensure that the pressure meets the equipment’s requirements. Once confirmed, press down the knob to lock in the pressure setting.

‌Air Hose Removal‌: If it becomes necessary to remove the air hose, first close the main intake valve to cut off the air supply. Subsequently, push the plastic part of the fitting inward quickly and firmly to release the lock, and then promptly pull out the air hose. This operation should be done swiftly to minimize the risk of air leakage.

Routine Maintenance and Consultation
Mastering the method of connecting the compressed air pipe for the thermal shock test chamber is just one aspect of the equipment’s routine maintenance. Typically, after purchasing the equipment, the manufacturer’s technicians will be responsible for its installation and commissioning. However, as a user of the equipment, understanding these basic operations is crucial for subsequent self-maintenance and troubleshooting.
