The ERICHSEN Model 606-1 (for one test chamber) is a compact corrosion tester for salt spray tests according to all salt spray standards. The integrated touch control panel allows easy operation and monitoring of the device. Furthermore, it contains the necessary regulation and control instruments for the temperature control in the test chamber, the humidifier temperature, the spray pressure and the test duration, so that the user can carry out the test according to the standards.

Salt spray chamber: Various test chamber sizes with test volume of 400 l, 1000 l or 2000 l can be selected regarding the requirements.
The test chambers (400 l and 1000 l) are available in circular and rectangular design. (For model 606-1: adapter for one salt spray chamber)

Purpose and application: Ferrous and non-ferrous metals are attacked continuously by humidity, acids, solutions, gases etc. It is therefore vitally important to choose the correct surface protection. There are many materials and qualities on the market and their properties must be properly assessed. Materials intended to prevent corrosion must be tested if failures are to be avoided. Furthermore the comparative quality control during production is of increasing importance. The best known processes employ spray vapour tests using various salt solutions as well as condensation water climates.

Test principle: Aggressive solutions are turned into a vapour mist in accordance with the tests that are listed below. These vapours surround the specimens in the test chamber either continuously or in a cyclic manner. The corrosion resistance of the individual specimens is established on the basis of the difference in time before the first corrosive effects become apparent.
