Double test hoods

Testing with mandatory contact protection

Test enclosures are protective devices designed to shield operators from electrical hazards and prevent contact with the test object during testing. They are available in various designs and sizes to suit different applications.

Our extensive range of standard test chambers covers virtually every application. If we don’t have a suitable standard solution in our portfolio, we can also manufacture custom test chambers for you.

Key Facts:

Perfect and reliable protection against accidental contact

SCHLEICH test enclosures are a rock-solid, long-lasting investment designed to minimize risks to the operator. Ergonomics and reliability are top priorities, thanks to the touch-proof cover over the test objects.

The smooth-operating test hood is made of shatterproof, transparent plastic and covers the test object to allow visual observation or inspection during the test. Tests can only be performed when the test hood is closed, and the closed position of the hood is continuously monitored by a dual-circuit safety limit switch. It complies with legal requirements and is certified for safety.

Closing the test chamber initiates the test procedure. Opening the chamber while the test is in progress causes the tester to immediately terminate the test. The test voltage is turned off in the tester, and the test object is discharged. The discharge process is monitored by the tester.

The test hood remains closed thanks to the optional locking mechanism:

until the test object is fully discharged
until a mechanical movement or rotation is completed
if the test result is negative (failed)

The test enclosures can be equipped with custom mechanical mounts for your test specimens. These can be easily mounted on the base plate or interchangeable plates. Inside the enclosure, there are connections for connecting the test leads. The connecting cables to the test equipment are typically connected to the test equipment via secure connectors.

The test chamber is fully insulated, preventing any voltage leakage to the outside. Operating personnel are optimally protected.

To protect sensitive products from electrostatic charging and discharging, test hoods made of ESD materials are available for an additional charge.
