Salt Spray Chamber – Precision Corrosion Testing for Superior Product Quality
Pacorr is a trusted manufacturer, supplier, and exporter of advanced corrosion testing instruments, including the high-performance Salt Spray Chamber. This equipment is essential for evaluating the corrosion resistance of metals, coatings, and surface treatments, helping industries ensure that their products can withstand challenging environments before reaching the market.
By creating a controlled salt mist environment, Pacorr’s Salt Spray Chamber compresses years of natural exposure into a short, measurable test cycle, allowing for early detection of material or coating weaknesses and enabling manufacturers to deliver products that meet international standards.
What is a Salt Spray Chamber?
A Salt Spray Chamber, also known as a salt fog or corrosion test chamber, is a laboratory device designed to simulate aggressive, salt-laden environments. It produces a fine mist of sodium chloride solution inside an enclosed chamber, replicating coastal, marine, and industrial conditions where corrosion is common.
Salt spray testing is one of the most widely used methods for quality control because it provides a reliable way to predict product performance over time, helping businesses reduce warranty claims and improve customer satisfaction.

Industry Applications
The Salt Spray Chamber is used across multiple industries where corrosion resistance is critical:
1. Automotive
Tests vehicle body panels, chassis components, fasteners, and coatings for rust resistance against road salt, humidity, and changing weather.
2. Marine & Offshore
Evaluates ship parts, offshore platforms, and marine coatings for durability in salt-rich environments.
3. Aerospace
Validates that aircraft materials and coatings can endure high-altitude and extreme environmental exposure.
4. Electronics
Ensures corrosion resistance of connectors, terminals, and casings exposed to moisture and salt.
5. Paints & Coatings
Verifies the performance of protective layers such as powder coatings, industrial paints, and galvanization.
Salt Spray Testing Process
Pacorr’s Salt Spray Test Chamber follows a precise and standardized procedure:
-
Sample Preparation – The product is cleaned and placed inside the chamber.
-
Solution Mixing – Usually a 5% sodium chloride solution is prepared.
-
Fog Generation – The solution is atomized into a fine mist by a nozzle system.
-
Exposure Duration – Samples are exposed for a set number of hours, ranging from 24 hours to over 1,000 hours depending on the requirement.
-
Post-Test Evaluation – Products are checked for rust, blistering, pitting, or coating degradation.
