Lab Dust Free Oven Environmental Test Condition

Internal environmental conditions
Benchmark cleanliness: At the beginning of the test, the chamber must reach the highest cleanliness level it claims (such as ISO Class 5 / Class 100). This is the premise of all tests. Before the test, the oven needs to run a long period of "self-cleaning" until the particle count shows that the concentration is stable below the standard for multiple consecutive times.
Temperature and Humidity: Although the oven is a heating device, its initial state needs to be clearly defined. The initial environment for testing is usually normal temperature and humidity, for example, a temperature of 20±5°C and a relative humidity of 30-60% RH. This is crucial for testing the heating time and temperature uniformity. If the process has requirements for the dew point of the environment, it may be necessary to record the initial absolute humidity.
Airflow state: The test should be conducted under the specified airflow pattern, typically in a vertical or horizontal laminar flow state. The fan must operate at the rated speed, with stable air pressure and air volume.
Test load: The test is divided into two conditions: no-load and full-load. No-load is the benchmark test for equipment performance. Fill the effective working space with a fully loaded simulated load (such as metal, pallets, etc.) to simulate the harshest working conditions. Full-load testing can truly reflect the impact of products on air flow and temperature fields in actual production.
External environmental conditions
1. The cleanliness level of the external environment must be lower than or equal to the cleanliness level designed by the oven itself. For instance, when testing an oven of Class 100, it is best to do it in a room of Class 1000 or cleaner. If the external environment is too dirty, it will seriously interfere with the measurement results of the internal cleanliness of the oven when opening and closing the door or when water seeps through gaps.
2. The laboratory requires a stable temperature and humidity environment. It is generally recommended to conduct the test under standard laboratory conditions, such as 23±2°C and 50±10% RH. Avoid testing in extreme or highly volatile environments.
3. The test area should be free of strong convective winds and it is best to maintain a slight positive pressure to prevent external contaminants from entering the test area.
4. The power supply voltage and frequency should be stable within the range required by the equipment.
5. The equipment should be placed on a ground or base with less vibration. There are no large stamping equipment, fans or other strong vibration sources around.
When testing a dust-free oven, controlling the external environment is as important as measuring the internal environment. An unstable, dirty or strongly interfering external environment can lead to distorted test data and fail to truly reflect the performance of the equipment. All test conditions should be clearly recorded in the final verification report to ensure the traceability and repeatability of the tests.
