However, it is crucial to acknowledge that the correlation between the duration of the salt spray test and the life span of a coating is weak. This is particularly evident in the case of hot dip galvanized steel, as its durability heavily depends on drying cycles. Because Corrosion, being a multifaceted process influenced by numerous external factors, cannot be solely determined by the salt spray test. Nonetheless, the industrial sector continues to widely employ this testing method to assess the resistance of finished surfaces and parts against corrosion.

Salt Spray Chamber PLC Based Features:
Tank Material: Stainless steel 316, known for its excellent corrosion resistance properties, makes the inner tank suitable for holding various substances, including corrosive solvents.
Double-Walled Design: The double walled construction adds an extra layer of insulation and protection, with the outer wall made of stainless steel 304. While stainless steel 304 is corrosion resistant, it may not offer the same level of resistance as 316 stainless steel.
Spray System: The sprayer system sprays solvents and liquids in the tank for cleaning, coatings, and other applications.
Humidity Meter: The humidity meter measures the level of humidity or moisture in the system. This feature helps monitor and control the environmental conditions inside the tank.
Temperature Indicator cum Controller: The digital temperature indicator cum controller is responsible for measuring and controlling the temperature within the tank. It maintains the desired temperature range with an accuracy of ±1℃.
Hour Meter: The hour meter keeps track of the total working hours of the machine. Users commonly use this feature to monitor usage and schedule maintenance or service intervals.
Timer: users prefer utilizing the timer to regulate time based functions in the system, enabling them to set specific durations for operations.
Heating System: A digital temperature controller cum indicator controls the heater in the tank. This system enables users to adjust the temperature inside the tank as required.
Power Requirement: The system operates on a 220 volts AC power supply.
Control System PLC Based
