Default Get -40C in my fillet weld tensile break tests

"Richard Smith" wrote in message ...

Ideas to get a controlled temperature of around -40C (also -40F) in a
test sample?

The lowest setting on my Alpicool C20 DC-powered freezer is -40C. Temps
below -20C are accessed with the E1 special setting.

It works well enough but isn't as rugged or hands-off reliable as a normal
AC-powered freezer, and really should have thicker insulation.
