Support, products and ordering

How do you contact support when you need help with a chamber?

You can contact our support team through the contact form or by phone for technical assistance. We provide lifetime support for our equipment, so you can keep your chamber running with confidence.

How do you request a quote for a custom chamber solution?

You can request a quote by contacting Hanse Environmental and sharing your application requirements. The more detail you provide about your test goals, chamber size, and performance needs, the easier it is for the team to prepare a solution that fits your project.

Where can you access chamber manuals and technical documents?

You can find manuals and technical documents in our downloads and knowledge base. These materials are designed to help you with chamber operation, troubleshooting, and day-to-day use, so you can get the information you need quickly.

How do HALT and HASS improve your product reliability?

HALT and HASS help you find weaknesses earlier in the development cycle. HALT pushes products beyond normal use conditions to expose design limits, while HASS screens production units for hidden defects before shipment. Used together, they help you improve robustness, reduce field failures, and move forward with more confidence.

How long is the warranty for your products?

Vibrators and vibration tables carry a 3-year warranty, and the rest of the equipment 1 year, from shipment: parts and labor for the first 90 days, then parts at no cost other than travel. We also support every system we have built.

What industries use Hanse Environmental chambers?

You can use our chambers across demanding industries such as automotive, aerospace, consumer electronics, military, and test laboratories. We tailor each solution to support the standards and test goals of your application.

How should you maintain your test chamber?

Keep your chamber in good working order by cleaning the interior, checking filters, inspecting seals and gaskets, and verifying that sensors and controllers operate correctly. For detailed steps, refer to your user manual, such as the VTC Series Manual.

Why does 6-DoF vibration testing give you a more realistic result?

6-DoF testing lets you apply motion in all six degrees of freedom, so your product experiences a more complete and realistic stress profile. That helps you uncover issues that may not appear in single-axis testing and gives you greater confidence in how your design will perform in the field.

How much can you customize a standard HALT/HASS chamber for your test needs?

You can tailor a standard HALT/HASS chamber to match your application requirements, test goals, and available space. Hanse Environmental offers extensive customization options so you can align the chamber with your process instead of forcing your process to fit the equipment.

How do your component choices support long-term serviceability?

We design our systems with durable, globally available components whenever possible so maintenance, replacement, and long-term support are more straightforward. That approach helps reduce downtime and makes it easier to keep your equipment running over time.

What are the shipping options available for your products?

We offer various shipping options including standard, expedited, and international shipping. Shipping costs and delivery times vary based on the destination and the size of the order. Contact us for details.

What payment options are available?

We accept credit cards, bank transfers, and purchase orders. Contact us for details.

Do you offer installation or training for new equipment?

Yes. We support customers with setup guidance and training resources so your team can start using the equipment with confidence. We also offer seminars and reliability engineering training for teams that want a deeper understanding of test methods and chamber operation.
