  • Publication number: 20260104194
    Abstract: A housing for a climate chamber includes a foamed body with an interior volume for receiving a climate chamber insert, an outer wall, and a projection projecting over the outer wall in a normal direction. The housing includes an outer wall margin extending at least sectionally about the outer wall and disposed such that it projects over the outer wall to form an outer wall cavity with the outer wall. The projection is disposed on the outer wall to divide the outer wall cavity into a first cavity and a second cavity. The first cavity can accommodate refrigerant conducting and/or refrigerant delivering components, while the second cavity can accommodate other components of the climate chamber.

  • Publication number: 20260104345
    Abstract: A climate chamber comprising a double wing door movable between an open and a closed position. The double wing door comprises a first door and a second door, wherein the first door comprises a first front side with a first ledge and the second door comprises a second front side with a second ledge. The first front side and the second front side are substantially facing each other in the closed position. A heating element is disposed within the first ledge of the first door to prevent icing and condensation in the proximity of the ledges, thereby improving sealing performance and maintaining sample integrity during testing.

  • Publication number: 20260104093
    Abstract: Disclosed is a sealing profile for sealing a gap between a door and a door stop of a climate chamber. The sealing profile is configured as a hollow profile having a wall with an inner side, enclosing at least one hollow volume, and an outer side. The hollow profile includes a heating element pocket formed by a segment of the outer side and configured to receive a heating element. The heating element pocket comprises a heating element compartment and an access channel. In a first state of the sealing profile, the access channel has a width in cross-section that is smaller than the diameter of the heating element, thereby retaining the heating element within the compartment. The sealing profile is deformable to allow widening of the access channel for insertion and removal of the heating element, enabling replacement of damaged heating elements without replacing the entire sealing profile.
