Caltech India is the manufacturer and supplier of Salt Spray Test Chamber or Salt Fog Test Chambers. Salt Spray Testing Instrument is also called as Fog Test. This is an accelerated environmental corrosion test in which metal specimens are exposed either continuously or intermittently to a fine mist of salt-water solution used to evaluate the resistance to corrosion of paints, coatings, or electrical connections. The appearance of corrosion products (oxides) is evaluated after a period of time. Test duration depends of the corrosion resistance of the coating; the more corrosion resistant the coating is, the longer the period in testing without showing signs of corrosion.

In the salt spray test cabinet painted / coated panels, automobile components i.e Electro-plated, Painted, and Anodized etc are exposed to a mist of salt over a period of test duration. Saturated air produced by spraying common salt solution into an enclosed cabinet creates humid atmosphere upto 98%. The articles being positioned for this accelerated corrosion test in such a way that they are exposed to the hot mist produced in the chamber, through the controlled air and liquid nozzles. The instrument is suitable for testing as per IS / BS / ASTM standards. Testing is carried out at 35°C or even upto 50°C.
