San Diego, California – September 25, 2023 - TotalTemp Technologies, a worldwide
leading provider of research laboratory and production temperature chambers and
thermal platform equipment, introduces their model VmSD144-N Thermal Platform
Vacuum Chamber. The efficient advantages of thermal platforms are a natural for
conductive heat transfer in high vacuum applications. With all the new hardware
going into space, where service calls are rare, thermal vacuum testing is an important
part of testing high altitude and satellite equipment. Affordable and configurable
for your application. Simultaneous high vacuum and thermal testing without renting
time at a test lab. Thermal platforms to fit your vacuum chamber or fully turn-key
systems. Platform shown inside bell jar is 6.5” x 7.5”, other sizes and different
bell jars available.
Aerospace environmental testing in a thermal vacuum chamber allows for the exposing
and weeding out potential problems due to extreme temperature and atmospheric pressure
changes as experienced in space. With equipment destined for space, the stakes are
much higher with the cost of a launch, chances of a failure could be catastrophic
plus service calls in space have historically been very costly. The game of basic
thermal testing in space is a little different than testing for land-based systems,
mainly because the lack of heat transfer by air. The intentional and unintentional
transfer of heat by convection makes a big difference from what could be common
sense solution in an environment with air. Outgassing of many materials would be
another consideration that is not such a big deal on Earth but requires careful
planning for items going into space. Making sure that components headed for space
are going to perform as planned typically involves simulating the environment as
it is expected to be experienced in space or low Earth orbit.

About TotalTemp Technologies
The primary goal for TotalTemp is to maximize the combined 40 years experience we
have in this highly specialized field and create a new, alternative, "Next Generation"
Thermal Platforms and Temperature Testing equipment. Our Mission is to offer thermal
testing equipment that best suits or customers' requirements. For several decades
there were only two real manufacturers for thermal platforms. It was no secret that
the market demanded a new alternative with better service and lower costs. We heard
you loud and clear and TotalTemp is here to fill that need.
