High-Performance Cathodic Delamination for Coated Metals
The Erichsen Cathodic Delaminator Model 602 serves as an advanced solution for the quick assessment of coated metals’ quality, primarily focusing on the detection and quantification of delamination effects due to corrosion. Designed to support rigorous quality control processes, this equipment features a compact yet comprehensive system, including a control unit alongside a temperature control vessel equipped with eight test receptacles and a circulator. Each receptacle operates with an independent constant current source, allowing simultaneous testing of up to eight specimens.
With its specialized functionality, the Model 602 is adept at identifying coating infiltration in damaged areas, making visible the consequences of erroneous pretreatments through bubble formation at pinhole sites, scratches, or stone impacts. Consequently, it plays a pivotal role in assessing mechanical injuries to organic coatings on metal surfaces, where such damages can significantly undermine corrosion protection.
Key Features and Applications
Recognizing the critical nature of substrate surface preparation and coating composition, the Model 602 emerges as a crucial tool in the preservation of corrosion protection systems. Utilizing a scratching tool to precisely injure the protective layer, it introduces a methodical approach to testing adhesion under accelerated conditions. This process is essential for industries where corrosion protection is paramount, including automotive and metal manufacturing sectors.
Comprehensive in delivery, the Cathodic Delaminator Model 602 comes with all necessary components, including a mains cable and an instruction manual, ensuring an integrated solution for immediate application across a range of settings.
