Fully automatic laboratory-accelerated atmospheric corrosion testing to; • ISO 16701 • Ford CETP 00.00-L-467 • Volvo VCS 1027,149 (ACT-1) • Volvo VCS 1027,1449 (ACT-2) • Volvo STD 423-0014 • Volvo STD 1027,1375 Plus all standards achieved by Ascott standard CCT chambers. The AtmosfärLite test chamber has been specifically designed to facilitate fully automatic testing in accordance with highly demanding laboratory-accelerated corrosion tests, which have become increasingly popular, particularly in the automotive industry. These tests are cyclic in nature and comprise exposure to controlled and varying conditions of temperature and humidity, with intermittent spraying of a salt solution. Such testing can be used to: (a) develop and qualify new corrosion resistant products, (b) develop new pre-treatments and finishing processes, (c) select materials and, (d) perform quality control of the finished product. Corrosion Test Chambers SCANIA In addition, AtmosfärLite chambers have been designed so that a wide variety of other corrosion tests can be conducted within them. For added flexibility, Atmosfär Lite chambers also retain the ability to perform conventional salt spray tests and Cyclic Corrosion Tests (CCT) in accordance with a wide range of international test standards. The AtmosfärLite is for corrosion test standards that do not require sub-zero temperatures, for sub-zero requirements see the Ascott Testing climate resi

Innovative design, the oscillating spray bar and air delivery system are quickly and easily removed to enable the chamber to comply with other CCT test standards. The air system collection tube is easily removed. The combined air dispersal and oscillating spray bar unit simply lifts out. The AtmosfärLite chamber is now ready for other types of corrosion test. AtmosfärLite key features Swaying spray bar with magnetically coupled drive system • Set high up in the center of the chamber, above the test samples. • Multiple spray nozzles deliver the salt solution spray directly and uniformly on to...
