Possibly - Is this chamber made of steel, PVC, Jell-O, copper, wood, blancmange, tungsten carbide, carbon fibre, re-enforced concrete, woven reeds?
If you're using Jell-O, blancmange, wood or woven reeds, you've got a big problem on your hands, although the first two might make for either dessert or an amusing youtube video.
If it's PVC or concrete, I would also avoid it, but remote fire might be acceptable.
If it's made of a suitable metal, then I can't foresee a problem.
