CORROTHERM 610

Description

The CORROTHERM 610/400 is an extremely compact, space-saving corrosion tester with an all-plastic construction (polypropylene). It contains all the necessary equipment for carrying out the most common spray mist and condensation water tests according to the standards (DIN 50 021, DIN EN ISO 6270-2, DIN EN ISO 7253, ISO 11503, ASTM B 117, ASTM B 368 T "CASS TEST"). The volume of the cabinet is 400 litres. The cabinet construction with a front door ensures simple operations and easy access to the testing area. The spray nozzle is located on the inside of the rear wall so that the entire test space can be used for loading samples.

Within the test chamber itself is the storage tank for up to 100 litres (400 l Version) of spray solution. This enables the test apparatus to work over the weekend without supervision. The Corrosion Test Apparatus of the CORROTHERM 610 series is manually operated. Clearly arranged buttons are available for functions such as the salt spray test, condensation water test and vapour evacuation. Via the control buttons, which are at eye level, the temperature display, time switch, and the test duration display functions are available and also permits the automatic switch off function on completing the pre-programmed test time (i.e. 240 h).

Purpose and application

Ferrous and non-ferrous metals are attacked continuously by humidity, acids, solutions, gases etc.. Therefore these materials require the necessary preparatory techniques and protective coatings. Over and above this, the increase in preparatory treatment demands and environment protection aspects lead to further system improvements of coating substances. The choice of the correct combination of material and the surface protection is therefore of decisive importance for the corrosion resistance of work pieces and assemblies. Corrosion tests are therefore still very essential for quick quality control and for the investigation of weak areas. In order to make these tests comparable, national and international standards have been drawn up for test conditions and duration.
