Testing MWIR/LWIR infrared systems to be sent into space missions is typically done using blackbodies located in cooled vacuum chambers that simulate space conditions.

Blackbodies located at vacuum chambers are typically used to simulate uniform target that imitates Earth o temperature in range from about -40ºC to about +150ºC (233K-423K). Sometimes blackbodies of expanded range from about -100ºC to about +250ºC are needed to simulate both Earth, cold deep space objects and hot Earth targets (173K-423K).

Inframet offers VB blackbodies for use in vacuum chambers. VB blackbodies are are customized versions of typical blackbodies TCB/MTB (or others) capable to work in vacuum chambers.
