SF Series Corrosion Cabinet

  • Overview +


    The SF Series are rugged and reliable traditional salt fog (spray) and humidity cabinets. SF cabinets are used to quickly qualify a coating or material on a pass-fail basis, or determine the probability of corrosion of a specific material.

    Typical standards met by the SF Series include Traditional Salt Fog & Humidity Tests: ASTM B117, ASTM D1735, ISO9227, GM 4429P, GM 4465P, CASS, SWAAT, Acetic acid, Water, Humidity, etc.

    With Humidity Test Kit: non-condensing humidity tests including ASTM D2247, FLTMA BQ4-2, Corrodcote™.

    With Microprocessor-based Control Package: for basic cyclic Fog/Purge tests except ASTM G85 Annex 5 (Prohesion™) which requires the BCX: for SO2 exposure tests including ASTM G85 Annex 4, ISO 6988.

    With SO2 Injection System for SO2 exposure tests including ASTM G85 Annex 4, ISO 6988.

    SF applications include: Architectural, Chrome Plating, Fasteners, Government, Metals, Military, Paints/Coatings, Laminated/Coated Plastics and Steel Structures.
