CDMCA Enclosed Carbon Arc Weather-Ometer®
For meeting test methods for exposure to enclosed carbon arc light sources a weathering principle from 1918 which was succeeded by the modern Xenon arc technology.



  • Light source: twin enclosed carbon arc lamps
  • Simulates interior exposure conditions
  • Total exposure area: 6,248 cm2 (968.5 in2)
  • Temperature control: Automatic digital setpoint of Black Panel Sensor and Dry Bulb in °C
  • Humidity control: Automatic digital setpoint in °C of Wet Bulb Depression and of conditioning water
  • Microprocessor based program cycle control of light and dark cycles
  • Specimen sprays and drum cooling sprays produce condensation and simulate rain
Reference Test Specifications include:
Reference Test Specifications include:
  • ASTM G23
    Standard Practice for Operating Light-Exposure Apparatus (Carbon-Arc Type) With and Without Water for Exposure of Nonmetallic Materials
  • ASTM D5031
    Standard Practice for Enclosed Carbon-Arc Exposure Tests of Paint and Related Coatings
