Corrosion and weather test chambers
Examples of standards typically used are:
- Salt fog testing as specified in DIN 50021
- Condensed water test as specified in DIN 50017 and EN ISO 6988
- Standard climates as specified by DIN 50015
The corrosion chambers come in tow sizes, the 480 litre version and the 950 litre version both with a brine reservoir of approximately 180 litres.
The salt solution is sprayed into the test chamber through a nozzle located in the top of the test chamber. The compressed air required is heated in a pressurised humidifier and saturated with moisture before it enters the test chamber.
More stingent testing calls for an atmosphere containing SO² in a condensation water-alternating climate. This test is possible with our standard corrosion test cabinet with SO² gas closing device.
The test chamber is made from special fibreglass with reinforced plastic laminate making it light and easy to move whilst robust and able to withstand accidents.
