TESTING CHAMBERS

The shelters are submitted to a number of tests, concerning their performance at real climatic conditions. SHELTER is equipped with two special testing chambers.
Waterproof Performance Chamber
The water-proof performance of the shelter is controlled in a specialty deslgned water . spray chamber. The chamber is equipped with several water spray nozzles that spray the shelterfrom various directions. In this manner, heavy rainfall in addition with strong wind is simulated. After a predefined time period. the interior of the sheller is inspected in order to certify that no water has entered the building.
Thermal Performance Chamber
The heat leakage of each new model of sheller is determined in a specially designed chamber. The chamber is equipped with sensors that measure the climatic conditions ollhe chamber. The climatic co-dnons of the chamber are monrtored and can be influenced electronically in order to achieve the desired lest conditions. A set of sensors is mounted on the inside of the sheller in order to measure the climatic conditions inside the sheller. These data, as well as the data collected from the chamber are logged to a data acquisition system. The collected data are processed in order to determine the heat leakage of the shelter. The amount of heat leakage is essential because rt determines the amount of energy that has to be spent.
