[0021] Working principle: When using this invention, under low pressure conditions, the third solenoid valve 41 is closed, and the vacuum pump 3, the first solenoid valve 33, and the second solenoid valve 35 are opened. The vacuum pump 3 draws a vacuum, and the air in the insulation layer 12 enters the three-way pipe 32 through the first vacuum pipe 34 and the first solenoid valve 33. The air in the second pressure-bearing shell 13 enters the three-way pipe 32 through the second vacuum pipe 36 and the second solenoid valve 35. The air in the three-way pipe 32 enters the vacuum adsorption cold trap 31, and then... After filtration, the vapor is drawn into the vacuum pump 3 to prevent moisture from entering the insulation layer 12. When the operating condition is only atmospheric pressure for humidity testing, the vacuum pump 3, the first solenoid valve 33, and the second solenoid valve 35 are closed to prevent moisture from entering the insulation layer 12. The humidifier 4 and the third solenoid valve 41 are opened, and the moisture is sent into the second pressure-bearing housing 13 through the moisture delivery pipeline 42. The first pressure-bearing housing 11 and the second pressure-bearing housing 13 are used to improve the pressure-bearing capacity of the first housing 1, and the door 14 is used to seal the first housing. The casing 1 and observation window 15 are used for easy observation of the interior of the second pressure-bearing casing 13. The second casing 16 is the equipment room. The control panel 2 is used to control the operation of the equipment. The motor 5 is used to drive the rotating shaft 51, which drives the impeller 52. The impeller 52 is used to push the air flow in the second pressure-bearing casing 13 to form a circulating airflow, so that the air in the second pressure-bearing casing 13 is evenly mixed. The refrigerant inside the evaporator 62 evaporates in a low-pressure environment, absorbing the heat of the surrounding air, thereby achieving the effect of cooling the interior of the second pressure-bearing casing 13. After evaporation, the refrigerant changes from liquid to gas. The compressor 6 draws in the low-temperature, low-pressure gaseous refrigerant from the evaporator 62 and then compresses it to increase its pressure and temperature, turning it into a high-temperature, high-pressure gaseous refrigerant, creating conditions for the liquefaction of the refrigerant in the condenser 61. The condenser 61 is used for heat dissipation of the refrigerant. The heat dissipation port 17 is used for ventilation and heat dissipation of the condenser 61. The heater 7 is used to heat the interior of the second pressure-bearing casing 13.
