Dycometal CH-300 Chamber for Water Condensation Testing (ISO 6270-2) 🔬💧

 Continuous humidity is one of the most aggressive factors for coatings and surface finishes. Predicting how water condensation will affect paint adhesion or blistering is vital before launching any component to market.

Our CH-300 chamber is specifically designed and manufactured to perform humidity resistance tests under the stringent ISO 6270-2 standard:
👉 Constant condensation atmospheres: Continuous maintenance of 100% humidity by heating the water at the bottom of the chamber.
👉 Durable construction: Manufactured with materials of high thermal and chemical resistance to guarantee maximum equipment durability and test repeatability.

The CH-300 provides the controlled and standardized environment that paint and surface treatment laboratories need to certify the highest quality.

PROHESION, MODIFIED SALT SPRAY TEST, ASTM G85-ANNEX A5

ASTM G-85 is a corrosion standard that establishes a number of methods for modified salt spray testing. These variations described in the standard are useful when a different or more corrosive environment than the salt spray described in ASTM B117 tests is desired. This method is applicable to both ferrous and non-ferrous metals, as well as organic and inorganic coatings.

Within this standard, Annex A5 establishes test criteria based on stages of slightly acidified salt spray, followed by exposure to drying at a temperature above the test temperature by inlet of fresh, unsaturated air. These conditions have to be taken into account when designing the chamber, since this second stage requires a modification of a standard salt spray.

The SSC salt spray chamber models can have this test in their configuration by means of a design and programming modification, and this test can be carried out as an option of the standard configuration in any of the models offered.

ISO 6270-2, DETERMINATION OF RESISTANCE TO CONDENSATION IN PAINTS AND VARNISHES

ISO 6270-2 (Determination of resistance to humidity. Part 2: Procedure for exposing test specimens in condensation-water atmospheres) establishes conditions and procedures for the conditioning of samples in order to evaluate the behaviour and defects that can develop when samples are subjected to high humidity environments. This test establishes 3 different types of atmospheres: CH – Condensing atmosphere with constant humidity; AHT – Condensing atmosphere with alternating humidity and air temperature; AT – Condensing atmosphere with alternating air temperature.

Normally, condensing chambers are presented in a vertical format with a capacity of approximately 300 litres, but… What happens when we want to test large parts? In this case, Dycometal’s solution is the condensing chamber in horizontal format with a large width dimension in order to be able to introduce the largest samples. This horizontal design allows several samples to be positioned in parallel for testing. Volumes of 1000 or 2000 litres provide more than enough capacity to accommodate large specimen lengths.

CYCLIC CORROSION CHAMBER FOR COMPLIANCE WITH ISO 11997-1 – PAINTS AND VARNISHES, SSCK

ISO 11997-1 (Determination of resistance to cyclic corrosion conditions) describes the method for the determination of the resistance of coatings to one of the 4 defined cycles under humidity (salt spray)/dryness/humidity conditions using specific solutions. This method is used to compare the resistance of different coatings to cyclic salt spray exposure. It is most commonly used to provide a rating scale for a series of painted specimens that show significant differences in resistance to cyclic salt spray exposure. This standard has different types of cycles: A: based on Japanese standards, B: based on VDA 621-415 used in Europe, C: developed in the UK for water soluble paints or latex paint, D: based on Japanese standards.

Our SSCK cyclic corrosion models have been developed for compliance with this standard in any of its cycles. With 5 different volumes, they can be adapted to the space requirements of customers and their programmer with associated software will allow the test to be recorded and a full report to be produced.

WALK-IN SALT SPRAY CHAMBER, Model: SSC-7730m

The salt spray chambers allow evaluating the behaviour of materials and coatings against corrosion. It is not a simulation test, but a quality study test against a humid atmosphere with a specific concentration of NaCl. When the pieces are too large or too heavy for a standard salt spray chamber, the best option is a large-volume salt spray or walk-in chamber, which will allow the samples to be entered comfortably.

The SSC-7730m Walk-in Salt Spray Chamber has been designed for large part sizes and weight. The special plastic coating that presents the interior of the chamber, allows protecting the chamber from the corrosive agents that will be generated during the test. The door allows the passage of the pieces inside the chamber without any difficulty of access to the interior of the chamber. In addition, the roof of the chamber is made at an angle so that water droplets do not fall on the sample, according to the norm. Several salt spray nozzles are positioned on the sides of the chamber so that the salt spray is evenly distributed inside the chamber .

PRODUCT BULLETIN: WALK-IN Humidostatic Chamber for Corrosion Tests

The corrosion tests by condensation are oriented to know the behavior of the samples under conditions of high humidity and high temperature, checking if there is some type of defect in the protection facing an accelerated study. The most common standards are: ISO-6270-2 and ASTM D2247, BS 3900,… The typical humidostatic chambers are small to do test to a big samples like some automotive components, so it’s is necessary to do the test in a bigger chamber, walk-in chamber.
