The Pacorr CASS Cum Salt Spray Chamber is an advanced corrosion testing solution designed to evaluate the corrosion resistance of materials and coatings, especially in high-salinity environments like marine or coastal areas. It features a controlled salt spray environment that cycles between salt spray and humid phases to mimic real-world corrosive conditions
Corrosion testing is crucial for assessing the durability and longevity of materials in corrosive environments. The CASS Cum Salt Spray Chamber by Pacorr offers a state-of-the-art solution for such evaluations. Its primary function is to simulate fluctuating conditions materials and coatings might face, especially in high-salinity areas.
Understanding the CASS and Salt Spray Test
The CASS (Copper Accelerated Acetic Acid Salt Spray) test is one of the accelerated corrosion tests that specifically focuses on the corrosion resistance of metallic coatings. This method is distinguished from the neutral salt spray test by its use of a copper chloride accelerator to speed up the corrosion process. It's essential for evaluating coatings like electrodeposited copper/nickel/chromium, nickel/chromium, and anodic coatings on aluminum
Working Principle
The chamber operates by atomizing a salt solution (typically 5% NaCl in water) and spraying it onto test specimens within a controlled environment. This creates a highly corrosive atmosphere, accelerating the corrosion process and enabling the assessment of a material's or coating's resistance to corrosion over a specified period.
Features and Specifications
The chamber is built with high-grade FRP material to resist corrosion and features a touch screen control for ease of operation. It supports various capacities (250 Liters as a standard option) and meets global standards like ASTM B117 and ISO 9227. Its design includes an air saturator for uniform salt spray distribution, a fog collector to analyze the corrosive solution, and optional features like a pH meter and humidity indicator for enhanced testing capabilities.
Importance and Applications
Salt spray chambers are pivotal in industries like automotive, aerospace, and marine, where materials are frequently exposed to corrosive environments. By providing a simulated corrosive environment, these chambers help in predicting the lifespan of materials and coatings, ensuring they meet the necessary standards for corrosion resistance
The Pacorr CASS Cum Salt Spray Chamber represents a significant advancement in corrosion testing technology. With its comprehensive features and compliance with international standards, it offers an indispensable tool for industries seeking to enhance the durability and performance of their products against corrosive elements.

CASS Cum Salt Spray Chamber involves exposing the test specimens to a salt spray environment in a controlled chamber. The salt spray is often a solution of sodium chloride (NaCl) or a similar corrosive agent. The test is conducted in cycles, typically consisting of a salt spray phase followed by a humid phase. This cyclic exposure simulates the fluctuating conditions that materials might experience in real-world environments.
