The EQUILAM NA CORR AUTO model cyclic corrosion test chambers provide one of the most realistic simulations for accelerated corrosion testing. Some studies indicate that the test results closely resemble those obtained in outdoor exposure.
The CCT CORR AUTO cyclic corrosion test chambers by Equilam North America provide accelerated corrosion testing that closely simulates real-world weathering conditions. Research indicates that test results obtained with these chambers are comparable to those observed in outdoor environments.
The CCT CORR AUTO corrosion chambers allow programming of customizable test cycles with specific time intervals (ramp or plateau) and multiple operating modes, including:
● Salt Spray (Salt Fog)
● Stress or Spray Mode – oscillating or fixed (optional)
● Immersion (optional)
● Saturated Humidified Hot Condensation on Samples – ISO 6270-2 (CH) / ASTM D2247
● Hot Water Fog, Saturated Humidity – ASTM D1735 (optional)
● Climate Control – temperature versus relative humidity, with ramp and soak programming. Range: 50 °F to 176 °F (10 °C to 80 °C). Relative Humidity: 10% – 85%
● Low Temperature: –22 °F (–30 °C), with ramp and plateau programming for controlled cooling and heating. Range: 176 °F (80 °C) to –4 °F (–20 °C)
● Ultra-Low Temperature: –40 °F (–40 °C), linear cooling and heating with ramp and plateau programming. Range: 176 °F (80 °C) to –40 °F (–40 °C)
Salt Spray (Salt Fog) Mode:
Test specimens are placed inside the test chamber following technical standards or company-specific protocols. They are subjected to controlled fog with corrosive agents (acidic, basic, or saline) in a high-humidity environment, using solutions defined by industry standards.
Spray (Stress) Mode – Oscillating or Fixed:
Optional mode, also available in a suspended oscillating configuration (mounted at the top).
The climatic mode features electric heating elements that enable rapid temperature ramping, meeting the needs of automotive cyclic corrosion tests with short transition times.
Immersion Mode:
The solution is pumped into the test chamber, immersing the test specimens. This solution can be heated or kept at ambient temperature.
