Salt spray test chambers SC450 and SC1000

The SC series salt spray test chambers are a further example of the future-oriented testing systems developed by Weiss Umwelttechnik.
The equipment adheres to the principle of combining technical func- tion, ergonomics and design to provide the user with a testing system that is the best possible in every respect.
This is true for a great variety of technical and practical details as well as for the price/performance ratio, whereby we gave equal weight to capital and operating costs.
The series is characterised by its environmentally friendly overall design; it is absolutely corrosionproof, has low energy requirements and is almost entirely built from recyclable materials.

The SC series of salt spray test chambers and climate alternating test equipment allows selective and reproducible accelerated corrosion testing complying with the requirements of relevant national and international standards such as DIN, ISO, ASTM, DEF, MIL-STD, etc.
The wide-angle test chamber hood allows for loading heavy or bulky test specimens from the top. Two standard sizes are available. A flat work space is provided between test space and control panel for placing small specimens before or after a test cycle.
The removable machine compartment hood provides easy access for the operator and service per- sonnel carrying out maintenance and service work.

Salt Fog Test as specified in DIN EN ISO 9227 [DIN 50 021]
A salt solution is sprayed into the test chamber using the venturi principle through a nozzle located at the top of the test space. The compressed air required is heated in a pressurised humidifier and saturated with moisture before it enters the test space.
The brine solution in the venturi nozzly feeder vessel is kept at a constant level by a recirculating supply.
The heating in the test chamber ensures uniform temperature conditioning to the required set temperature. Condensation generated is drained away through a floor drain, and the corrosive test chamber atmosphere is vented through an exhaust vent.

This test is possible with the standard SC series chamber.
