Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides a detailed description of the ERICHSEN Corrosion Testing Instrument, Model 608 Basic, designed for testing the corrosion resistance of materials under varying climatic conditions. It highlights the importance of selecting appropriate surface protection for metals and the role of corrosion testing in quality control.
Technical Description: The Model 608 Basic is constructed from eco-friendly polypropylene and is available in three capacities: 400 l, 1000 l, and 2000 l. It includes a test chamber, control unit, and an external storage tank for the spray solution. The system uses a Siemens touch screen for operation and can perform tests according to international standards.
Test Principle: The instrument converts aggressive solutions into vapour mist, which surrounds the specimens in the test chamber. The corrosion resistance is determined by the time taken for corrosive effects to appear.
Design and Features: The instrument features a pneumatically operated test chamber dome for easy specimen placement. It includes a dosing pump for spray solution consumption adjustment and comes with specimen holders and condensate receptacles. Optional accessories include a "dry heat" function and a multi-channel data acquisition system.
Technical Data: The power supply varies based on the test chamber size and optional functions. The test temperature range is from ambient temperature up to +50°C, with a maximum floor load of approximately 300 kg. The test chamber capacities allow for testing up to 400 panels.
Standards and Specifications: The instrument complies with various international standards, including DIN, ISO, ASTM, and MIL standards, for continuous salt spray tests, condensation water tests, and varying climatic tests.
Order Information: The document lists order numbers and descriptions for different models and accessories, including specimen holders, sample rods, and wastewater pumpout units.
Additional Instruments: ERICHSEN offers other corrosion test instruments, such as the Humidity Cabinet HYGROTHERM, Accelerated Weathering Instrument BANDOL WHEEL, and Corrosion Test Instrument CORROTHERM, among others.
Recommendations: For specimen preparation, tools like the Scratching Tool, Automatic Milling Machine, and Multi-Cross Cutter are recommended.

Purpose and application Ferrous and non-ferrous metals are attacked continuously by humidity, acids, solutions, gases etc. It is therefore vitally important to choose the correct surface protection. There are many materials and qualities on the market and their properties must be properly assessed. Materials intended to prevent corrosion must be tested if failures are to be avoided. Furthermore the comparative quality control during production is of increasing importance. The best known processes employ spray vapour tests using various salt solutions as well as condensation water climates. Test...
