Temperature & Humidity Testing
Environment Associates is outfitted with multiple chambers to suit all types of temperature and humidity testing needs, including: table-top, standard-reaching, fixed or portable walk-in chambers, and if needed, drive-in chambers. All Environment Associates test chambers are equipped with separate data-acquisition equipment for temperature and humidity monitoring. Our temperature and humidity chambers can be readily equipped with specialized data acquisition to digitally record chamber conditions and the test article at multiple data points. Many of our temperature and humidity chambers are equipped with high-performance, maximum-size compressors to produce superior ramp rates equal to or greater than 15°C per minute.

Contaminating Fluid Testing
Products manufactured using plastics, coated and painted surfaces, seals or other "A" surface materials can come in contact with spilled chemicals, sweat, cleaners, lubricants and fuels that can be a potential stress source for a product. These stress sources can cause discoloration, deterioration and de-lamination failures. We can create a list of fluids and/or follow TRCA, DO-160, MIL-STD-810 and ASTM guidelines for a list of products that should be used to test your part's compatibility.

Tensile & Compression Testing
If you are looking for a value on the forces needed to assemble a product, or what it will take to overcome a connector latch or other device that mates together, let Environment Associates perform these tests for you. We can test in both tensile and compression on samples that are less than 14" (35.56 cm) wide and can handle product travel less than 54" (137.6 cm), with sensitivities at 0.01 lbs. (4.53 grams) at a wide range of speeds. EA specializes in the determination of connector performance for many different applications and styles.
