The Applicability of Temperature Test Chambers to the Testing of Household Environmental Products
Oct 18, 2025
A variety of products used in home environments (more common test objects) such as televisions, air conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines, smart speakers, routers, etc., as well as environmental protection products used to improve the home environment: such as air purifiers, fresh air systems, water purifiers, humidifiers/dehumidifiers, etc. No matter which category it is, as long as it needs to work stably for a long time in a home environment, it must undergo strict environmental reliability tests. The high and low temperature test chamber is precisely the core equipment for accomplishing this task.
The home environment is not always warm and pleasant, and products will face various harsh challenges in actual use. This mainly includes regional climate differences, ranging from the severe cold in Northeast China (below -30°C) to the scorching heat in Hainan (up to over 60°C in the car or on the balcony). High-temperature scenarios such as kitchens close to stoves, balconies exposed to direct sunlight, and stuffy attics, etc. Or low-temperature scenarios: warehouses/balconies without heating in northern winters, or near the freezer of refrigerators. The high and low temperature test chamber, by simulating these conditions, "accelerates" the aging of products in the laboratory and exposes problems in advance.
The actual test cases mainly cover the following aspects:
1. The smart TV was continuously operated at a high temperature of 55°C for 8 hours to test its heat dissipation design and prevent screen flickering and system freezing caused by overheating of the mainboard.
2. For products with lithium batteries (such as cordless vacuum cleaners and power tools), conduct charge and discharge cycles at -10°C to assess the battery performance and safety at low temperatures and prevent over-discharge or fire risks.
3. The air purifier (with both types of "environmental product" attributes) undergoes dozens of temperature cycles between -20°C and 45°C to ensure that its plastic air ducts, motor fixing frames and other structures will not crack or produce abnormal noises due to repeated thermal expansion and contraction.
4. Smart door lock: High-temperature and high-humidity test (such as 40°C, 93%RH) to prevent internal circuits from getting damp and short-circuited, which could lead to fingerprint recognition failure or the motor being unable to drive the lock tongue.
High and low temperature test chambers are not only applicable but also indispensable for the testing of household environmental products. By precisely controlling temperature conditions, it can ensure user safety and prevent the risk of fire or electric shock caused by overheating or short circuits. Ensure that the product can work stably in different climates and home environments to reduce after-sales malfunctions. And it can predict the service life of the product through accelerated testing. Therefore, both traditional home appliance giants and emerging smart home companies will take high and low temperature testing as a standard step in their product development and quality control processes.
