Salt spray chambers: Ascott SIS/SIP

Essential feature salt spray cabinets for common corrosion test standards

Chambers to cover every testing requirement from continuous salt spray test through to condensation humidity and modified tests.
Standard models meet the requirements of basic, continuous salt spray tests conducted at a single temperature only, such as ASTM B117 and similar international test standards, and may be used with pH neutral salt solutions (NSS) or those acidified by the addition of Acetic Acid (ASS) or Cupric Acid (CASS).

Six different sizes from 120 Litres up to 2600 Litres:

• Low loading threshold for ergonomic loading and unloading.
• «Easy Open» pneumatically operated canopy, with safety interlock.
• Dry seal gasket to prevent wetting the operator’s clothes.
• Timed canopy lock and purge of the cabinet interior with fresh air after testing and before the chamber is opened.
