The Tenney JR is a compact benchtop environmental test chamber engineered to deliver precise temperature simulation across -75°C to +200°C. This mechanically refrigerated chamber accommodates small components and materials with 1.2 cubic feet of usable workspace and ±0.3°C control tolerance. Equipped with dual 1/2 HP compressors, a 500 W heating system, and CFC-free refrigerants, the JR provides consistent performance for electronics, military, and pharmaceutical testing applications. The chamber accepts multiple control platforms—including Watlow 942, F4T, and EZ-Zone Programmer options—enabling 99-step programming with looping capability, delayed-start functions up to two weeks, and non-volatile memory retention for five years during power loss.
