VOC emission test chamber with passive temperature control

The quality of indoor air is strongly influenced by volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released from materials and products, including construction and building products, such as adhesives, furniture, paints, and many more.

The Olfasense VOC emission test chamber with passive temperature control allows characterization of the emissions of volatile organic compounds from these materials under precise test conditions, and is fully compliant with the requirements of ISO 16000-9, EN 16516, EN 717-1, and GEV Testing Method.

The standard size of the chamber is 250l. Various other chamber volumes are optionally available.

Our chambers have been developed in close cooperation with experts from industry and research and can be used for a broad analytical performance spectrum via 4 sample ports.

The chamber is ready to be used in a temperature-controlled room under general indoor air conditions. If you are looking for a VOC emission test chamber with active temperature control and/or thermal desorption option, please check out our VOC emission test chamber with active temperature control.
