Salt testing chamber
Ascott have been at the forefront of salt testing chamber design for many years, and our latest product range embodies customer led innovation, blending performance with technical excellence
The creation and control of corrosive climates has never been more demanding. The development of new materials and surface coatings, plus increasing user expectations gives rise to ever more rigorous testing. This is our forte. Let our expertise be your reassurance that choosing an Ascott chamber will ensure your testing is precise, compliant and repeatable.
Salt Spray Corrosion Test Chambers
The salt spray test, also known as salt fog or salt mist, has served as a benchmark corrosion test for decades.
Many industries rely on this test, supported by extensive test data and numerous international testing standards.
It remains popular as a relatively quick comparative method for evaluating corrosion resistance.
The test helps determine whether test samples corrode as expected under specified testing conditions.
Its main application is therefore to audit the effectiveness of production processes.
Atmosfär Corrosion Test Chambers
Atmosfär chambers provide fully automatic testing for highly demanding test profiles from leading automotive manufacturers worldwide.
They support stringent testing requirements from the world’s leading automotive manufacturers.
The Atmosfär chamber comes in two sizes: 1300L and 2600L, supporting various testing applications.
Optional accessories enable the chamber to meet test standards from FORD, VOLVO, SCANIA, and many other manufacturers.
Users can choose different temperature ranges, including Lite from 20°C or Sub-zero from -20°C/-4°F and -40°C/-40°F.
Cyclic Corrosion Test (CCT) Chambers
Cyclic Corrosion Testing recreates and accelerates various corrosive climates within the controlled environment of a test chamber.
This test helps predict the service life of materials and components under simulated operating conditions.
The method has gained wide acceptance, particularly across the automotive industry.
Many automotive manufacturers have developed their own CCT standards to evaluate corrosion resistance under specific conditions.
CorroFlex Chambers
CorroFlex corrosion test chambers offer flexible sizing options to suit different testing applications and user requirements.
Users can customize the chamber width and depth according to their specific testing needs.
Both dimensions can increase in 0.5m increments, providing greater flexibility when selecting the ideal chamber size.
Ultra Compact Front Loading Chambers
The Ultra Compact front-loading chamber from Ascott suits customers with limited floor space and small testing requirements.
It supports small or few components while fully complying with international test standards.
Kesternich SO2 Humidity Chamber
The Kesternich test commonly refers to sulfur dioxide (SO₂) corrosion testing under general moisture condensation conditions.
The test introduces a specific volume of SO₂ gas, typically 0.2L, 1L, or 2L, into the test chamber.
