Corrosion is a natural process that affects all metal products. It occurs when the metal reacts with its environment, such as water or air, and causes it to deteriorate. This can lead to costly repairs and replacements for these items. In some cases, corrosion can also cause safety hazards. For example, if a metal structure corrodes too much, it may collapse. Therefore, it is important to test your sample thoroughly while testing. Thus, we at Presto have come up with one of the essential testing instruments for corrosion testing known as the salt spray chamber. The Salt Spray Chamber is a time-tested product that has been specifically designed to assess the rust-proof ability of components. It provides complete flexibility in the simulation of real-life weathering conditions. Here in this blog, we are going to provide you with the information about Presto Cass cum salt spray chamber and how you can easily operate this testing instrument with ease.

Steps to operate Presto Cass cum salt spray chamber
Rust and corrosion are serious problems for any metal product. Rust compromises the structural integrity of the metal, making it more susceptible to breakage. Corrosion can also eat away at the surface of the metal, reducing its lifespan.
In order to protect metal products from rust and corrosion, manufacturers often apply a surface coating. Surface coatings are an important part of this protection, but they must be applied properly in order to be effective. Testing the effectiveness of these surface coatings is necessary so as to deliver accurate products to customers. With the Presto salt spray chamber, you can effectively perform this function. You can easily operate this testing equipment by following the steps mentioned below.
- First of all, turn ON the machine by plugging the main socket of the machine into a 3-pin 15 amp socket.
- Connect the M8- PU Pipe within the Air Saturator DM Water Inlet Port and fill the air saturator with DM Water.
- Click on Menu from the Main Screen of the HMI Interface.
- Prepare a salt solution to fill the reservoir tank
- Prepare the test sample and place it correctly on the machine.
Once these above steps will be followed, you can operate the HMI interface by setting the value. When you set all the values, click on Run Test from the HMI interface to continue the process of testing. In this way, you can easily operate the machine.
