    Elastocon mediates Q-Lab's outdoor testing of products and materials in desert climate in Arizona. Q-Lab Arizona ranks among the largest desert exposure facilities in the world.

  • Condensation tester QCT

    Condensation tester QCT

    The QCT condensation tester simulates the damaging effects of outdoor moisture attack by condensing warm water directly onto test specimens. In a few days or weeks, the QCT tester can reproduce the damage due to moisture that occurs over months or years outdoors.

  • Corrosion coupons, Q‑PANEL CX series

    Q-Lab’s CX series of standard corrosion test coupons

    Q-Lab’s CX series of standard corrosion test coupons are consistent, clean, convenient, and cost-effective. They are specifically designed to meet the stringent standards specified in modern corrosion test methods, such as GMW 14872, GM 9540P, SAE J2334, SAE J2721, ASTM B117, ISO 9227, and VDA-233-102.

  • Cyclic corrosion tester Q‑FOG CRH

    Cyclic corrosion tester Q‑FOG CRH

    Q-FOG CRH cyclic corrosion chambers can perform traditional salt spray, Prohesion, and most cyclic automotive tests. They feature fully-adjustable relative humidity and precise control over ramp times. An optional shower function is also available. Q-FOG CRH chambers are available in two sizes to fulfill a wide range of testing requirements.

  • Cyclic corrosion tester Q‑FOG SSP/CCT

    Cyclic corrosion tester Q‑FOG SSP/CCT

    Q-FOG corrosion test chambers are available in two types. Model SSP performs traditional salt spray and Prohesion tests. Model CCT performs salt spray, Prohesion, and 100% humidity for most cyclic automotive tests. Q-FOG chambers are available in two sizes to fulfill a wide range of testing requirements.

  • Florida outdoor exposure testing

    Q-Lab Florida outdoor exposure testing

    Elastocon mediates Q-Lab's services for outdoor exposure testing of materials and products in Florida. Q-Lab Florida has more specimens on test than any other outdoor weathering facility in the world.

  • Low cost replacement lamps and filters for Atlas Weather-Ometer testers

    Low cost replacement lamps and filters for Atlas Weather-Ometer Testers

    Q-Lab offers water-cooled replacement lamps and optical filters for use in Atlas Weather-Ometer® models Ci35, Ci35A, Ci65, Ci65A, Ci4000, Ci5000, and SUNTEST CPS and CPS+.

  • Outdoor exposure racks, Q-RACK

    Outdoor exposure racks, Q-RACK

    Q-RACK outdoor exposure racks are the same aluminum racks that are used at Q-Lab Florida and Q-Lab Arizona to perform natural outdoor exposure tests. Now you can buy these professional quality racks to perform exposures at your own site.

  • Q‑PANEL standard test substrates

    Q‑PANEL standard test substrates

    Q-PANEL steel and aluminum test substrates have been recognized as the world standard for a consistent and uniform test surface for paints, plating, adhesives, sealants, rust inhibitors and other coatings.

  • Ultraviolet fluorescent lamps for QUV

    Ultraviolet fluorescent lamps for QUV

    Q-Lab supplies the highest quality UV fluorescent lamps available. The technology behind the lamps produces a spectrum that is inherently stable throughout their use.

  • Universal calibrator system

    Universal calibrator system

    The universal calibrator system (UC) is a revolutionary, handheld device for calibrating temperature and irradiance across all Q-Lab weathering chambers. It utilizes inexpensive, modular, and disposable “smart sensors” to simplify calibrations and dramatically lower operating costs over competing approaches.

  • Xenon arc lamps for Q‑SUN

    Xenon arc lamps for Q‑SUN

    The Q-SUN testers’ xenon arc lamps produce the most realistic reproduction of full spectrum sunlight including ultraviolet, visible light and infrared radiation. For many materials, exposure to the full spectrum is necessary to provide an accurate simulation, especially when testing for color change and lightfastness.

  • Xenon arc weathering tester with large capacity, Q-SUN Xe-8

    Rotating rack xenon arc weathering tester with large capacity, Q-SUN Xe-8

    The Q-SUN Xe-8 is the NEW standard in large capacity, rotating rack xenon arc weathering testers. In addition to its unmatched technical capabilities, the Q-SUN Xe-8 tester offers greater capacity, lower price, and significantly longer lamp life – about 8000 hours at normal irradiance – than leading competitors, which all results in low operating costs.

  • Xenon test chamber Q‑SUN Xe‑1

    Xenon test chamber Q‑SUN Xe‑1

    The Q-SUN Xe-1 tester is a tabletop lightfastness, colorfastness, and photostability chamber. It has a single xenon arc lamp and is available with optional water spray and chiller. Its small scale is perfect for a lab with a limited budget or only an occasional need for testing. Installation of the Xe-1 tester is simple and specimens can be conveniently mounted horizontally on its flat specimen tray.

  • Xenon test chamber Q‑SUN Xe‑2

    Xenon test chamber Q‑SUN Xe‑2

    The Q-SUN Xe-2 rotating rack xenon arc chamber is a full featured weathering and lightfastness chamber at a breakthrough price. It provides precise control of critical test parameters including spectrum, irradiance, relative humidity, chamber temperature and black panel/black standard temperature. Water spray is also an available option.

  • Xenon test chamber Q‑SUN Xe‑3

    Xenon Test Chamber Q-SUN Xe-3

    The Q-SUN Xe-3 tester is a full-featured lightfastness, colorfastness, and photostability chamber at a breakthrough price. It utilizes three separate xenon lamps for a large capacity. The Q-SUN Xe-3 tester’s slide out specimen tray is 451 mm × 718 mm and is useful for exposing large, three-dimensional parts or components. The Xe-3 tester offers standard humidity control, and optional spray, back spray and chiller features.
