Condom Accelerated Aging Tester (Model: PYT-Aging Series) is a professional, laboratory-grade hot air environmental simulation system engineered and manufactured by Peyotal. Purpose-built for determining the thermal stability and long-term storage degradation performance of natural rubber barrier products, this instrument is designed for highly accurate and repeatable aging pre-conditioning in factory QA environments and scientific testing departments.
Standards: Fully compliant with international and national testing frameworks including GB7544 (Appendix H for the determination of aging properties of condoms), ISO23409, and ASTM D6324.

Q1: What is the complete technical workflow for evaluating a condom’s shelf-life using the Peyotal aging tester?
A: The testing principle combines precise environmental simulation with destructive physical evaluation. First, the operator places the packaged condoms inside the chamber and adjusts the system to simulate a predetermined storage period at an adjustable baseline of 30 degrees Celsius. Once the aging cycle completes, the samples are extracted. Laboratory technicians must measure the blasting volume and burst pressure using our companion condom blasting tester within a precise timeline: not less than 12 hours but within 96 hours after extraction. By comparing the data against unaged batches, operators can clearly observe and log changes in condom quality.
Q2: Why does Peyotal recommend a testing capacity of 200 samples for this instrument?
A: In professional manufacturing plants, research institutes, and science ministries, testing a small handful of samples does not provide statistical confidence for regulatory approvals. While our chamber can process a minimum of 32 samples per batch, Peyotal strongly recommends running 200 samples. This high-capacity batch testing allows QA managers to perform thorough group statistical analysis, ensuring that the shelf-life data matches international compliance rules.
Q3: Is the testing temperature fixed, and can this machine be used for non-latex packaging evaluations?
A: The baseline standard profile is configured around 30 degrees Celsius, but the thermal controller is fully adjustable to meet different testing profiles. Thanks to its precise hot air convection stability and reliable temperature control, it can be extended to evaluate the accelerated thermal aging, drying, and package degradation behavior of various medical devices, pharmaceutical pouches, and industrial rubber materials according to regional health ministry guidelines.
Q4: What facility utilities are required to install this equipment in our laboratory?
A: The PYT-Aging Series is engineered for maximum utility simplicity and high portability, making it ideal for laboratory environments in Central Asia, Southeast Asia, Africa, and Latin America. It runs entirely on a standard AC 220V 50HZ electrical power grid and requires no external air compressors or water lines. Weighing only 10 kg with a compact 500mm * 500mm * 450mm footprint, it can be placed on any standard benchtop directly alongside your existing physical testing instruments.
