Weathering systems enable the testing of materials, coatings, and surfaces under defined light, UV, and climatic conditions. Changes caused by radiation, temperature, and humidity can thus be examined in a controlled and reproducible manner.
Depending on the test task, systems with varying sample capacities, irradiance levels, and performance specifications are available—ranging from xenon weathering systems and UV irradiation devices to complementary testing and measuring equipment. The selection of the appropriate system depends on the test objective, number of samples, and desired performance range.
