The lamp life of a UV aging test chamber will vary due to many factors, including the type, brand and quality of lamps used, as well as how they are operated and maintained. Generally speaking, the lamp life of the UV aging test chamber can be between thousands and tens of thousands of hours.

1. Short-wave ultraviolet (UVB) lamps: Short-wave ultraviolet lamps usually have a short lifespan, about 2000 to 3000 hours.
 
2. Medium-wave ultraviolet (UVA) lamps: The lifespan of medium-wave ultraviolet lamps is generally longer, which can reach 5,000 to 10,000 hours.
 
3. Long-wave ultraviolet (UVC) lamps: Long-wave ultraviolet lamps can also have a longer life, usually around 10,000 to 20,000 hours.
 
It should be noted that the service life of these lamps is for reference only, and the actual service life may be affected by various factors, such as the frequency of use of the lamp, operating temperature, ambient humidity, etc. Accurate lamp life should also refer to the technical specifications and guidelines provided by the manufacturer.
 
In order to maintain the normal operation of the test chamber and the accuracy of the results, it is recommended to regularly check the status of the lamp tube and replace the aged or damaged lamp tube in time according to the manufacturer's requirements and operation manual.
