An illumination module for a test chamber, a test chamber and a method for modifying a test chamber. The test chamber includes a temperature-insulated test space sealable against an environment for receiving test material. The illumination module can be disposed at least partially in the test space to illuminate the test space and includes an illuminant and a socket, a wall duct and a light conducting device. The wall duct is disposed in a wall surrounding the test space and extends from an inner side to an outer side of the wall. The light conducting device has a light exit area and a light entry area and is disposed within the wall duct. The socket is disposed at the outer end positioning the illuminant at the light entry area. The light exit area is disposed at the inner end.
A test chamber for conditioning air comprising a temperature-insulated test space sealable against an environment for receiving test material, a temperature ranging from −80° C. to +300° C., being able to be produced within the test space, the test chamber including an illumination module being able to be disposed at least partially in the test space and the test space being able to be illuminated by the illumination module, which comprises an illuminant and a socket, wherein the illumination module comprises a wall duct made of a hollow tube and alight conducting device, the wall duct being disposed in a wall surrounding the test space whereby the wall duct extends from an inner side to an outer side of the wall, the light conducting device having alight exit area and a light entry area and being disposed within the wall duct whereby it extends from an inner end to an outer end of the wall duct, the socket being disposed at the outer end and positioning the illuminant at the light entry area, the light exit area being disposed at the inner end, wherein a gap is formed between the wall duct and the light conducting device and wherein the illumination module comprises a sealing device which is disposed at the inner end, the light conducting device passing through the sealing device and the sealing device bridges the gap between the wall duct and the light conducting device, sealing the light conducting device at the wall duct.
A method for modifying a test chamber having a temperature-insulated test space sealable against an environment for receiving test material, a temperature ranging from −80° C. to +300° C. being able to be produced within the test space, a lamp which has a lamp casing and is disposed within the test space on an inner side of a temperature-insulated wall of the test chamber, which surrounds the test space, being removed, a through bore being formed between an outer side of the wall and the inner side, an illumination module comprising a wall duct made of a hollow tube, a light conducting device, an illuminant and a socket being inserted into the through bore in such a manner that the wall duct extends from the inner side to the outer side of the wall, the light conducting device having a light exit area and a light entry area and being disposed within the wall duct whereby it extends from an inner end to an outer end of the wall duct, the socket being disposed at the outer end and positioning the illuminant at the light entry area, the light exit area being disposed at the inner end, wherein a gap is formed between the wall duct and the light conducting device and wherein the illumination module comprises a sealing device which is disposed at the inner end and bridges the gap between the wall duct and the light conducting device, the light conducting device passing through the sealing device and the sealing device sealing the light conducting device at the wall duct.
