What it is

The TJR model is a benchtop unit with a compact external footprint intended to save valuable floor space while providing an ample interior workspace. An upright version designated TUJR is also available. The chamber features a vapor-tight interior constructed of 100% stainless steel.[1]

How it works

Control is performed by a digital temperature controller. Options include the Watlow F4T with a 4.3-inch color touch panel and INTUITION adaptive control algorithm or alternately a Watlow 942 controller. The controller offers ramp-and-soak profiles. Real-time clock and battery backup are included. Ethernet Modbus TCP connectivity is standard on the F4T model. Safety devices include an adjustable over-temperature protection circuit.[1][2]

Applications

The TJR is suited for electronic, military, and pharmaceutical quality assurance and reliability testing. Applicaton areas include temperature cycling, thermal shock simulation (with optional boost cooling), product durability validation, and research and development testing. The chamber can also be used in production processes that require precise thermal conditioning of small batches.[1]

Frequently asked questions

What is the operating temperature range of the Tenney TJR?

The TJR can operate from -75°C to +200°C with an accuracy of ±0.3°C.[3]

What type of temperature controller does the TJR use?

The standard controller is a Watlow F4T with a 4.3-inch color touch panel, providing 1 to 4 control loops with TRU-TUNE+ adaptive control. An alternate Watlow 942 controller may also be supplied.[2]
