Fully automatic laboratory-accelerated atmospheric corrosion testing to: 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 ISO 16701 is a Swedish word derived from the Greek words atmos (steam) and sfaira (sphere) and is used to describe the surrounding environment of a product or a place. testing corrosion resistance to the limit

The Atmosfär 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 of exposure under 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,...

Atmosfär designed for more standard tests Flexibility – due to the innovative design, the oscillating spray bar and air delivery system can all easily be removed to enable to chamber to comply with many other popular corrosion test standards. Testing to: 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 ISO 16701 Atmosfär also complies with other corrosion test standards including:­­­ SALT SPRAY/MIST/FOG CORROSION TESTING ASTM, DEF/MIL, IEC, ISO, JIS and others CYCLIC CORROSION TESTING (CCT) GM, ISO, JIS, P-VW, SAE, VDA and...

Atmosfär key features Oscillating spray bar • 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 the test samples beneath. Spray bar nozzles oscillate backwards and forwards inside the chamber. Fan-shaped spray pattern, in-line with the spray bar, with carefully controlled overlaps ensures test samples are ‘swept’ with a uniform spray of salt solution from above, All plastic, corrosion resistant construction, running in glass bearings. Driven by a magnetic coupling to maintain the integrity of...

Atmosfär key features High velocity vertical air-flow • High velocity air – pre-conditioned by a separate air conditioning unit, is delivered to the chamber and passes vertically though the test samples, evenly, from top to bottom during the climate controlled testing phase. High air flow and uniform distribution, coupled with open form sample support racks, ensures homogeneous distribution of temperature and humidity controlled air throughout the chamber and test samples. Air system collection tube Magnetically coupled drive system • No drive shaft passing through the wall of the chamber,...

Atmosfär quickly and easily converts 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. Atmosfär also complies with other corrosion test standards including: SALT SPRAY/MIST/FOG CORROSION TESTING ASTM, DEF/MIL, IEC, ISO, JIS and others CYCLIC CORROSION TESTING (CCT) GM, ISO, JIS, P-VW, SAE, VDA and others 1 The air system collection tube is easily removed. and oscillating spray bar unit simply lifts out. 3 The Atmosfär chamber is now ready for other types of corrosion test.
