Designed for Automotive Cabin Demisting

The Kanomax Steam Generator excels at creating the ideal test environment for de‑mister systems. By introducing controlled steam into a vehicle’s cabin, it enhances windshield fog formation—enabling evaluation of defogger effectiveness based on standardized test conditions. This shaping of the testing environment is critical for verifying performance against recognized regulations.

Specifications That Drive Performance

  • Steam Generation: Adjustable between 65 to 390 g/hour, offering flexibility for various test scenarios.
  • Steam Volume: Capable of producing up to 1 gallon (3.785 L) per session—sufficient for replicating real-world fogging conditions.
  • Efficient Design: Maintains heat loss under 75 W while operating with a heater capacity up to 500 W at AC 100 V.
  • Nozzle & Airflow Characteristics: Equipped with a 15 mm inner diameter nozzle, 100 mm in length, and airflow via a built-in fan operating at 0.05–0.1 m³/min (at 49 Pa).

Meets Industry Standards with Consistency

Kanomax designed the Steam Generator to support testing that complies with multiple global standards:

  • JIS D 4502/4504‑1994
  • ISO 3470‑1989(E)
  • EEC 661
  • SAE J953

These validations make it a dependable choice for both regulatory and in-house performance testing.

Key Applications

  • Automotive De‑mister Validation: Establishes and standardizes cabin fogging conditions for effective defogger assessment.
  • R&D and Quality Assurance: Supports engineering teams in developing, optimizing, and verifying defogging systems under reproducible conditions.
  • Regulatory Compliance Testing: Delivers the controlled conditions necessary to validate against international testing standards.

Equip your automotive testing lab with the Kanomax Steam Generator and elevate the precision and efficiency of your de‑mister system evaluations, ensuring durable performance and peace of mind from concept to compliance.
