This system is intended to condition metal Charpy impact test specimens to a controlled sub-zero temperature before they are transferred to a pendulum impact tester.

In day-to-day lab and QC use, it is commonly applied to Charpy specimens machined from metallic materials and alloys such as carbon steels, stainless steels, aluminum alloys, and nickel-based alloys.

It is also a practical fit for weld procedure qualification and production verification work, where you may be conditioning base metal, weld metal, or HAZ Charpy specimens as required by your method. The exact specimen loading approach depends on your specimen geometry and quantity, and how you want to stage specimens for quick transfer to the impact frame.
