Corrosion Testing Equipment for Optimal Surface Protection
The Erichsen Model 608 is a compact corrosion tester for cyclic tests and alternating climate stress or alternating corrosion stress. Made of impact-resistant, environmentally friendly PP material, this 400l testing equipment forms a closed unit that can be individually assembled according to your specific requirements.
Key Features
– Integrated touch control panel for easy operation and monitoring
– Fully automatic testing with alternating periods of salt fog, humidity, and drying
– Integrated storage tank for spray solution
– Three sample holders for weathering panels included, with capacity for 18 sample plates per holder
– Pneumatically operated dome for convenient specimen insertion
Applications
Ferrous and non-ferrous metals are continuously attacked by humidity, acids, solutions, and gases, making proper surface protection vital. The Model 608 testing equipment allows you to test materials intended to prevent corrosion to avoid potential failures. It’s also essential for comparative quality control during production.
Testing Process
Aggressive solutions are transformed into a vapour mist according to standardized tests. These vapours surround the specimens in the test chamber either continuously or cyclically. The corrosion resistance is evaluated based on the time difference before the first corrosive effects become apparent.
