Corrosion Box — Salt Fog & Cyclic Corrosion Chamber

Corrosion Box — Salt Fog & Cyclic Corrosion Chamber

The CORROSIONBOX H is a horizontal test chamber with a clear pivoting cover for salt spray, condensation and cyclic corrosion tests. A corrosive solution is atomised through a nozzle in the centre of the chamber and distributed uniformly over the entire test zone via a fog diffusing tower. Available in five models from 600 to 2 000 litres.

The chamber structure is overall 10 mm thick Polypropylene, fully corrosion-resistant, with a double-wall insulated construction. The salt solution reservoir is integrated into the structure. An enhanced model with microprocessor control supports up to 15 programmable cyclic test programs — combining salt spray, water condensation, dry-off and ambient conditions in any sequence. Optional SO₂ dosing enables Kesternich testing. Industry 4.0 ready with remote diagnostics.
