[0060] A method for the reliability evaluation device of the above - mentioned catalyst carrier includes the following steps:

[0061] S1. Place the catalyst carriers to be evaluated and tested into the two feeding chambers 6 respectively.

[0062] S2. Start the air - supply device 2 and the heater on one side to act on the catalyst carrier in step S1. The sensors 3 in the corresponding placement rack 4 monitor the mass change of the intact catalyst carrier to determine its decomposition temperature and weight loss.

[0063] S3. Replace with a new catalyst carrier to be tested, and drive the catalyst carrier in the placement rack 4 to rotate by the driving mechanism.
