Our standard salt mist systems for ISO 9227

The salt mist test according to DIN EN ISO 9227

In a salt mist test, the samples to be tested are subjected to a sodium chloride mist atmosphere at an elevated temperature. This process simulates the stress on the test items caused by corrosive, oxidizing media in fast motion. Other spray solutions such as acetic acid (AASS) or copper chloride (CASS) can also be used.

You are not familiar with this standard? Here there is further information.

 

  • ISO 9227 NSS/ASS/CASS

  • ISO 60068-2-11

  • ASTM B 117

 

Furthermore, the salt spray test mentioned above can be combined with other test methods. This results in alternating corrosion tests with cyclic processes and controlled temperature and humidity. Below you will find an example selection:

 

  • ISO 6270-2 CH/AT/AHT

  • ISO 11997-1

  • VDA 621-415

  • VW PV 1210

  • ISO 60068-2-52

  • SAE J2334

  • Nissan CCT1

  • Volvo / Ford

 

The possible tests can be found in the technical documentation and may vary depending on the system!

Which system is suitable for my application?

Köhler-VLM explains

 

The chamber opens through a hood. This allows the test object to be placed into the system from above

 

The chamber opens through a door. This allows the system to be loaded from the front

  • 500L to 3000L

  • Can be expanded with climate function

  • Transparent acrylic hood for easy loading from above
  • Changes according to customer requirements on request

Other frontloading variants

KV-VLM   series

  • 300L to 3500L

  • Transparent glass pane for easy loading from the front
  • Condensation water constant (CH) and alternating climate tests (AHT, AT), Kesternich tests

  • Salt spray tests (SAL)

  • Condensation tests (CON)

  • Ventilation with room air/warm air, CCT climate change tests

  • ClimaCORR® climate change tests with controlled humidity and forced warm air drying

condensate systems

KV-C   series with 300L

These compact and easy-to-use benchtop cabinets are designed to carry out condensation tests (constant humidity) according to the most common international corrosion test standards such as:

  • EN ISO 6270-2:2005

  • ASTM D2247

Cabinets with the AIR or ADO option are designed for the additional water
Condensation tests suitable:

  • Changing temperature (AT)

  • Changing temperature and humidity (AHT)

With optional manual or electronic dosing systems for SO2 gas, the (KES) version of the CON 300-FL test cabinet is suitable for carrying out Kesternich tests according to:

  • DIN EN ISO 6988 (DIN 50018)
