Product descriptionThe MK CO₂ series environmental simulation chambers are engineered for dynamic temperature testing and complex temperature profiles. High change rates enable rapid temperature transitions and support reproducible, standards-compliant tests. A comprehensive set of standard features provides practical functionality for industrial applications. The MK CO₂ series uses natural CO₂ (R744) as refrigerant, offering an alternative when specific refrigeration requirements apply.
