Technical Description Model 532
The BANDOL WHEEL® 532 is an accelerated weathering instrument designed to simulate natural weathering processes. It is available in two versions: the 532/I for dry weathering cycles and the 532/II for wet/dry cycles.
Design and Function
The 532/I model is tailored for dry climates, focusing on photo oxidation without water influence. The 532/II model includes a tank for wet/dry cycles, allowing precise control over the immersion phase. Both models feature a rotating rack for uniform exposure and a mask to introduce obscurity phases without turning off the light source, enhancing lamp longevity.
Technical Specifications
- Dimensions: 590 x 470 x 410 mm
- Weight: 532/I - 30 kg, 532/II - 32 kg
- Power Supply: 230 VAC, 50 Hz, single phase, 6 A fuse
- Power Consumption: Max 500 W
- Light Source: 400 W air-cooled mercury discharge lamp
- Temperature Range: 532/I - 55°C to 80°C, 532/II - 45°C to 80°C
- Exposure Area: Up to 1272 cm2
Advantages
The instrument offers a large exposure surface, efficient UV radiation, and a long lamp lifespan. It provides results that correlate well with natural weathering, with UV radiation levels equivalent to about "2 suns."

Power supply Power consumption Exposure area Purpose and Application BANDOL WHEEL® 532 is a reliable accelerated weathering instrument in a compact design for acceleration of natural weathering. BANDOL WHEEL® 532/I - designed for "Dry" weathering cycles, has been developed for the simulation of purely dry climates, to reproduce the photo oxidation process without influence of water. BANDOL WHEEL® H 532/II is the „Wet / Dry“ version and is based on the classical version of the equipment in which an immersion phase of the samples has been added. To achieve this, a tank has been installed in the...
