3. Front Loading Cabinets for Water Condensation Tests

Product Description:

These compact and easy to operate frontg loading test chambers are designed for conducting Constant Humidity (CH) and alternating temperature / humidity corrosion tests (AT, AHT) pursuant to the most common international corrosion tests such as DIN EN ISO 6270-2:2005 and ASTM D2247.

All Cabinets Comply With the Folowing Standards:

- DIN EN ISO 6270-2:2005, CH - ASTM D2247 - BS 3900 F2, BS 3900 F15 - Cabinets with AIR, AWRF option are applicable for additional water condensation tests: - alternating temperature (AT) - alternating temperature and humidity (AHT)

CustomerBenefits:

- Cost effective solution for basic water condensation corrosion tests (CH, AT, AHT) - Compact front loading (chest) design - The VLM technology allows the best possible reproducibility of the temperature conditions - The test chamber with the bottom made of steel is more robust and less susceptible for damages

compared to the competitive products made of glass reinforced plastic - Lower cost of ownership compared to the competitive products where the test chamber is made of

glass reinforced plastic (shorter test periods, better energy efficiency, easier for service and maintenance, longer life cycle, more resistive to mechanical damages)

- Modular design allows the users to upgrade their test chambers at any later moment; the product grows with the customer requirements

- User friendly control system with preconfigured test parameters

Note:

The list of VLM CON test chambers presented on the next page is only indicative. Since VLM is the expert in tailor made solutions there are more features or combination of features which can be added to the standard CON chamber.

4. Front Loading Cabinets for Kesternich (SO2) Test


VLM offers three types of systems performing Kesternich test:

- Manual gas dosing system (KES)

- Electronic gas dosing system (EKES)

- Automatic gas dosing system (AKES)

Virtually any VLM front loading test chamber designed to perform water condensation tests (CON) can be equipped with one of above gas dosing systems for performing Kesternich test in the SO2 environment.

For practical and cost-effective reasons the smaller test chambers (CON and CON-SAL) with Jumo dTRON controller are frequently fitted with the manual gas dosing system for the Kesternich test. This flexible approach is possible due to the fact that the KES system operates completely independently from the process controller built into the test chamber.

The electronic Kesternich test (EKES) in the SO2 environment is also suitable for virtually any VLM test chamber (except for the SAL range) and regardless of the controller used. The electronic gas dosing device offers a great deal of comfort and operating flexibility to the users however it still requires human intervention while conducting the Kesternich test. Any test chamber equipped with Jumo dTRON or Jumo Imago controller can be equipped with EKES system since it operates independently from the process controller built into the test chamber.

Finally, the automatic gas dosing system (AKES) for the Kesternich test is fully integrated with the sophisticated Beckhoff process controller. In contrary to the previous systems AKES dos not require any human intervention while conducting the Kesternich test since the gas dosing unit is controlled by the Beckchoff controller.

All Cabinets Comply With the Folowing Standards:

- DIN EN ISO 6988 - DIN 50018 - ASTM G 85

CustomerBenefits:

The following are the customer benefits of the KES, EKES and AKES gas dosing systems:

KES - Cost effective way for conducting the Kesternich test - High flexibility in choosing the basic type of the test chamber – the KES system operates in

combination with (almost) all chamber types and all process controllers - User friendly and safe operation - Modular design of VLM test chambers allows easy adding of the KES option long after the chamber

has been commissioned

EKES - High flexibility in choosing the basic type of the test chamber – the EKES system operates in

combination with (almost) all chamber types and all process controllers - User friendly and safe operation - Highly sensitive electronic mass flow meter allows accurate gas dosing - Modular design of VLM test chambers allows easy adding of the EKES option long after the chamber

has been commissioned - The complete system is designed according to the highest safety standards; the EKES system with

SO2 bottles is enclosed in a separate casket which is continuously ventilated


13

AKES - Fully automatic Kesternich gas dosing controlled by the high performance PLC controller - AKES allows for automatic switching from one to another bottle when the first one gets empty - Automatic safety procedures - Highly sensitive electronic mass flow meter allows accurate gas dosing and the indication of the

remaining mass of the gas in the bottle on the display - Modular design of VLM test chambers allows adding Kesternich test option long after the chamber

has been commissioned - Automatic data logging

Note:

The list of VLM CON test chambers presented on the next page is only indicative. Since VLM is the expert in tailor made solutions there are more features or combination of features which can be added to the standard test chamber performing the Kesternich test. The list of all features that can be combined with KES/EKES/AKES are:

Test Chambers for Cyclic Climate Tests (CCT) Product Description:

The CCT type of test chambers, both front loading and top loading design, is developed to conduct automated, cyclic corrosion tests pursuant to the major corporate test standards developed by the international automotive industry. These test chambers can also perform standard Salt Spray test according to ISO 9227 and Water Condensation tests (CH, AT AHT) according to ISO 6270-2.

VLM uses two types of controllers for CCT test chambers: Jumo IMAGO and Beckhof PLC.

Note: The VLM CCT test chambers can not regulate humidity. For this reason they are not suitable for more complex corporate tests which require humidity control such as Renault ECC1 or Nissan CCT1. Test Standards:

Example Corporate tests - VDA 621-415 - VW PV 1210 (climate module required) - GMW 14872 - … Salt Spray tests - DIN EN ISO 9227 - DIN 50942, DIN 53167 - ASTM B 117-73, ASTM B 287-74 - ASTM B 368-68 - ISO 7253 ISO 3678 - BS 1224, BS 2011, BS3900 F4 - BS 3900 F12 - BS 5466 Part I, BS 5466 Parts 2 + 3 - NFX 41002, - AS 21331 Section 3.1 - SIS 1841190 - JIS Z 2371

Condensation water test:

- ISO 6270-2 - BS 3900F2, BS 3900 F15 - ASTM D2242

CustomerBenefits:

- Operating temperature from ambient up to +60°C (front loading cabinets) respectively +55°C for top loading test chambers

- Advanced steel design of the chamber allows for fast temperature and humidity transient times making this test chamber perfectly suitable for accelerated corrosion tests – these result in time and energy savings during the operational lifetime

- The patented VLM technology allows the best possible reproducibility of the climate conditions being created in the test chamber regardless the environmental conditions and geographical location

- The test chamber made of steel is more robust and less susceptible for damages compared to the competitive products made of glass reinforced plastic


- User friendly, menu guided and intuitive control systems based on a versatile controllers

13. MultiCORR® (MC) Range of Top and Front Loading Cabinets


Compact and highly sophisticated front and top loading test chambers developed for conducting the advanced cyclic corrosion tests pursuant to the corporate standards of the international automotive industry such as Nissan CCT1, Renault ECC1.

All MultiCORR test chambers are equiopped with the hi-end Beckhoff PLC controller.

Note: The VLM MultiCORR test chambers regulate both humidity and temperature very accurately. Due to their unique design these chambers can perform any standard corrosion test and can be programmed for any customized test.

Test Standards: Example Corporate tests - Nissan CCT1

- Renault ECC1 (external climate module required)

- Volvo STD 423_0014

- GM GMW 3172

- VDA 621-415 - VW PV 1210 (climate module required) - GMW 14872 - … Salt Spray tests - DIN EN ISO 9227 - DIN 50942, DIN 53167 - ASTM B 117-73, ASTM B 287-74 - ASTM B 368-68 - ISO 7253 ISO 3678 - BS 1224, BS 2011, BS3900 F4 - BS 3900 F12 - BS 5466 Part I, BS 5466 Parts 2 + 3 - NFX 41002, - AS 21331 Section 3.1 - SIS 1841190 - JIS Z 2371
