Ascott Analytical Equipment was founded over 30 years ago as a specialist manufacturer of corrosion test chambers. Today, Ascott is one of the world’s leading suppliers of salt spray and cyclic corrosion chambers. The business is entirely focused on corrosion testing equipment, producing nothing else, giving them a level of expertise that is unmatched by the competition.
Based in Tamworth, UK, where all their chambers are manufactured, they export to all corners of the world, winning three awards for their export success in 2017.
The latest range of corrosion chambers embodies customer-led innovation, combining performance and technical excellence. Creating and controlling a corrosion climate has never been more challenging. The development of new materials and finishes, plus growing user expectations, means that increasingly stringent tests are required. This is our strength. Let their expertise reassure you that choosing an Ascott chamber will ensure your testing is accurate, compliant and repeatable.
Ascott equipment is world class, but they also pride themselves on offering excellent value for money; if you are looking for a solution to your corrosion testing requirements, don’t hesitate to contact us today.
Salt spray chambers from ASCOTT enable reproducible corrosion and condensation tests according to national and international standards, such as DIN, IEC, ČSN, etc. These high-quality devices with volumes from 120 to 2600 liters, or even more, can easily imitate the environment that occurs, for example, in coastal areas or during winter vehicle operation. Testing products in such harsh conditions optimizes their resistance to sea salt and road salt.
It is also possible to test with neutral salt solutions (NSS), or in an acidic environment using acetic acid (ASS) or in the presence of cupric chloride (CASS).
Last but not least, it is also possible to simulate the so-called acid rain (SO2), the well-known Kesternich test.
The chambers are characterized by very good ergonomics. Thanks to the low edge of the test space, handling of samples is very comfortable. The control is intuitive and also available in Czech.
The cover of the test space is pneumatically controlled and guarantees tightness and operator safety. Before each opening, the test space is forcedly flushed with fresh air and salt vapors are extracted.
An observation window is standard and allows you to look into the test space without having to open it.
The device can be controlled remotely (also wirelessly) using intuitive software, which will soon be compatible with the SIMPATI SW.
ASCOTT corrosion chambers are divided into:
ASCOTT corrosion chambers are produced in several types depending on the complexity of the tests, from simulating a simple condensation, salt environment to cyclic tests consisting of, for example, the following tests:
