Salt Spray Test Chamber Manufacturers in India

ASTM B117 Salt Spray Corrosion Test Chamber Manufacturer

Whether you are new to corrosion atmosphere testing or have been conducting testing for years, we present Salt spray chambers or Salt Fog Chambers that are not only easy to use and maintain but also provide the accuracy and flexibility necessary to meet today's demanding corrosion test procedures including Salt Spray Test, Condensation Water Test and Cyclic Corrosion Test. These machines create three types of manually adjusted environment; salt spray, high humidity and air drying at any given temperature within the chamber. Any combination of these environments can be programmed, in any order, to form a corrosion cycle. Such a corrosion cycle can be automatically repeated a predetermined number of times.

Our models meet the requirements of basic, continuous salt spray tests conducted at a single temperature only, such as ASTM B117 and similar international test standards, and may be used with pH neutral salt solutions (NSS) or those acidified by the addition of Acetic Acid (ASS), Seawater Acidified Test (SWAAT) or Cupric Acid (CASS). Models above 480 Liters of capacity are ideal for Cyclic Corrosion Cabinet (Cyclic Corrosion Chamber).

In Laboratories corrosion tests are used extensively for selection of materials and their surface protection. Our Corrosion box chambers are what you need to predict corrosion resistance of materials such as paints and coatings and are designed and developed to meet the widest possible range of industry standards:

What is a Salt Spray Test Chamber?

A salt spray test chamber is a laboratory testing equipment used to evaluate the corrosion resistance of coated, painted, plated and metallic components under accelerated salt fog conditions. The equipment performs corrosion testing according to ASTM B117, ISO 9227, NSS, CASS and cyclic corrosion testing standards.

• Salt fog testing as specified in DIN 50021
• Condensed water test as specified in DIN 50017 and EN ISO 6988
• Standard climates as specified by DIN 50015
• IEC 60068-2-52:1996
• Humid Sulphur test (ISO 6988:1985)
• Ammonia test (ISO 6957:1988)

ASTM B117 Salt Spray Testing

ASTM B117 is the most widely used corrosion testing standard for evaluating protective coatings, electroplated components, galvanized parts, painted surfaces and metal products. The salt spray chamber creates a controlled salt fog environment to accelerate corrosion and predict product durability.

ISO 9227 Salt Spray Corrosion Testing

ISO 9227 is an internationally recognized standard for salt spray corrosion testing. It specifies testing methods for evaluating the corrosion resistance of metallic materials, protective coatings and surface treatments under controlled salt fog conditions.

How Does a Salt Spray Test Chamber Work?

A Salt Spray Test Chamber works by creating a controlled corrosive environment inside a sealed chamber. A prepared salt solution is atomized through a precision nozzle to generate a fine salt fog that continuously settles on the test specimens. The chamber maintains controlled temperature, humidity and spray conditions according to standards such as ASTM B117 and ISO 9227.

During the test, coated or metallic samples are exposed to the salt fog for a specified period ranging from 24 hours to more than 1000 hours, depending on the testing standard and product requirements. After exposure, the samples are evaluated for corrosion, blistering, coating degradation and surface protection performance.

Types of Salt Spray Tests

Different salt spray tests are used to evaluate the corrosion resistance of materials, coatings, plated surfaces and finished products under controlled laboratory conditions. Depending on the testing requirements, standards and industry applications, salt spray chambers can perform Neutral Salt Spray (NSS), Acetic Acid Salt Spray (AASS), Copper Accelerated Acetic Acid Salt Spray (CASS) and Cyclic Corrosion Tests (CCT). Each test method is designed to simulate specific environmental conditions and helps manufacturers assess product durability, coating performance and long-term corrosion protection.

Neutral Salt Spray Test (NSS)

NSS testing uses a neutral salt solution to evaluate corrosion resistance of coated and metallic components.

Copper Accelerated Acetic Acid Salt Spray Test (CASS)

CASS testing provides accelerated corrosion testing for plated and coated materials using an acidified salt solution with copper chloride.

Acetic Acid Salt Spray Test (AASS)

AASS testing is used to assess the corrosion resistance of protective coatings under acidic salt fog conditions.

Cyclic Corrosion Test (CCT)

Cyclic corrosion testing combines salt spray, humidity and drying cycles to simulate real environmental exposure conditions.
