L a b C o r r o s i o n Te s t i n g E q u i p m e n t Innovative Laboratory Corrosion Testing Our line of lab corrosion testing equipment is designed to help our customers achieve their ultimate goals – a quality product, a competitive edge, a faster time to market. Testing should replicate the “worst case” environmental conditions that cause corrosion, leading to the selection of materials with the best service life. Atlas offers three models of corrosion cabinets, one for each approach to corrosion testing: Traditional Salt Fog and Humidity Testing Basic Cyclic Corrosion Testing Advanced...

CCX – Advanced Cyclic Corrosion Cabinet The CCX is the most advanced, sophisticated and versatile laboratory corrosion testing cabinet. With installed options, it can replicate up to 15 environmental conditions, placing powerful capabilities in the hands of the user. Test conditions replicated in the CCX * : Basic Cyclic Steps Advanced Cyclic Steps ■ ■ Salt (electrolyte) fog at saturated RH ■ ■ Salt and water fog, switched automatically ■ ■ Controllable humidity, ambient ■ ■ Dry-off ■ ■ Dwell ■ ■ Non-condensing humidity (i.e. “moist heat”) ■ ■ Direct spray of salt (electrolyte solution) ■ ■...

CCX – Advanced Cyclic Features CCX – Fiberglas ® Cabinets for Advanced Cyclic Corrosion Tests Advanced cyclic tests are used to qualify a specific coating or material for a wide range of end uses, to quickly qualify a coating or material on a pass-fail basis, and to predict service life or determine the probability of corrosion of a specific material. ■ ■ Meets the following technical standards: SAE J2334, ASTM G85 A4, Nissan CCT III/V, VW1210, Ford BI 123-01, Ford CETP L-467, GMW 14872 as well as automotive CCT, immersion and variable humidity. The CCX will also perform all basic cyclic...
