CLWT-115

CLWT-115 is a research-quality closed loop wind tunnel that provides a convenient, accurate system for thermally characterizing PCBs and individual components at elevated temperatures from ambient to 85°C. The CLWT-115™ wind tunnel produces air flows from 1 to 5m/s (1000 ft/min). With customization, it can generate flows up to 50m/s(10,000 ft/min) using orifice plates (available optionally). The clear Lexan test section lets the user view the test specimen and allows for ease of flow visualization. Unlike open loop wind tunnels, the CLWT-115™ recirculates internal air. This allows the system heater to quickly warm the air to a specific temperature. The testing of boards and components in hot air is a requirement in many electric systems such as components and power supplies. The precise controls of air temperature and velocity along with the broad temperature range of the CLWT-115™ wind tunnel make it a versatile test instrument for a variety of applications.
