Accessoriess

1. Core Working Components

Sample Testing Unit

8-well sample etching tank (suitable for multiple parallel tests): Used to load test liquid/molten solid samples and metal specimens;

Metal specimen fixing bracket: Adaptable to standard specimens (such as steel and aluminum) as required by GB/T 12621. ensuring stable immersion/contact with the sample.

Environmental Control Unit

Compressor - Refrigeration circulating water tank: Supports the condensation system, maintaining a stable test environment temperature;

High-precision temperature sensor (accuracy ±0.5℃): Real-time monitoring of the test tank temperature, matching the temperature control range of "room temperature to 100℃";

Heating module: Achieves temperature rise and constant temperature control for the test.

Control and Display Unit

Touchscreen display: Used for parameter setting (temperature, duration) and real-time display of test status;

Embedded control module: Supports automated instrument operation and data storage.

2. Auxiliary Accessories

Sample Processing: Standard metal test pieces (meeting GB/T 12621 material requirements), sample melting and heating device (for easily liquefied solid samples during transportation), pipettes/measuring cylinders (for quantitative liquid dispensing);

Calibration and Maintenance: Temperature calibration standard source, test piece grinding/cleaning tools (sandpaper, anhydrous ethanol, drying oven);

Data Recording: USB flash drive (for exporting test data/reports), test piece weighing balance (accuracy 0.1mg).

Test Procedures

Taking "Corrosion Testing of Metals in Dangerous Goods" as an example, the procedure is as follows:

1. Sample and Test Piece Preparation

Sample Processing:

Liquid Samples: Shake well before use;

Solid Samples Easily Liquefied During Transportation: Heat to a molten state (temperature control must be matched to sample characteristics).

Metal Test Piece Processing:

Take a standard test piece (e.g., steel/aluminum test piece specified in GB/T 12621), grind to remove the surface oxide layer, clean with anhydrous ethanol, and dry;

Accurately weigh the initial mass of the test piece (recorded as m₁), and record the test piece dimensions (calculate surface area).

2. Instrument Preparation

Connect to AC220V power supply, start the instrument, and complete the fault self-check via the touch screen;

Check whether the condensation system (compressor - refrigeration circulating water tank) is operating normally, and calibrate the temperature sensor (ensuring ±0.5℃ control accuracy);

Clean the 8-well sample corrosion tank to ensure no residual impurities.

3. Sample Loading and Parameter Setting

Fix the prepared sample piece onto the support, place it in the sample container, and add the sample to be tested (ensuring the sample piece is completely submerged/in full contact with the sample);

Place the sample container into the corresponding holes of the 8-well corrosion tank;

Set the parameters via the touchscreen: test temperature (e.g., 25℃ room temperature or standard specified temperature), test duration (e.g., the stress corrosion test duration required by GB/T 15970), and start the condensation system.

4. Starting the Test

After confirming the parameters are correct, start the instrument's automatic program;

During the test, monitor the temperature and sample status in real time via the touchscreen. If leakage, abnormal temperature, or other issues occur, the instrument will trigger an audible and visual alarm (which must be addressed promptly).

5. Post-Test Processing and Data Analysis

After the test, stop the instrument and remove the sample.

Clean the sample surface of any remaining sample with the specified solvent, dry it, and weigh it again (record as m₂).

Observe the corrosion state of the sample (e.g., pitting, cracking, surface discoloration, etc.), and calculate the corrosion rate based on the mass change (formula: corrosion rate = |m₁ - m₂| / (sample surface area × test duration)).

Determine the metal corrosivity level of the sample according to GB/T 12621. and export the test report using the instrument.

6. Instrument Cleanup

Empty the sample corrosion tank, clean it with pure water, and allow it to air dry.

Turn off the instrument power and disconnect the condenser water circuit.
