Description

Elcometer SCM400 Salt Contamination Meter
Stock #181017Z
Description:
"The SCM400 – Salt Contamination Meter is designed to give rapid, reliable, direct digital readouts of the surface contamination down to very low levels.  The SCM400 is compact, easy to use and is the perfect spot check for every industrial situation where surface contamination could threaten your business.
Salt contamination on metals and other surfaces has been shown to cause millions of pounds worth of corrosion and coating damage worldwide.  Undetected and invisible contamination leads to:
Premature corrosion-induced failure of plant items (stress corrosion cracking, crevice corrosion etc.)
Early failure of paints and coatings due to loss of adhesion
Interference with operating processes
The SCM400 confirms adequate cleaning of surfaces before coating, aiding the prevention of premature coating failures.  It shows salt build-up on vulnerable surfaces which can be treated to increase the lifetime of coatings.
Using the SCM400 salt contamination meter is easy.  A high purity sample paper is wetted with a pure water sample and placed onto the surface being sampled for a short period of time by the meter.  Soluble salts on the surface are absorbed by the paper which is then placed in the SCM400 for an instant analysis.  A direct readout of the surface salt contamination levels is given in microgrammes per square centimetre (µg/cm²)."
Suitable for a wide range of shapes, orientations, surfaces and finishes.
Quick and simple to use – 2 minute sampling time.
No hazardous chemicals
Battery operated and portable.
Direct readout – no calculations to do.
Water resistane.
Use on curved, horizontal and vertical surfaces.
Suitable for metallic and non-metallic surfaces.
Confirms adequate cleaning of surfaces before coating, aiding the prevention of premature coating failure.
Shows salt build-up on vulnerable surfaces, which can be cleaned to increase the lifetime of a coating.
Test papers can be re-moistened and a similar test result can be achieved; ideal for proof and ISO requirements.
Accurate.
Repeatable.
