Multigas Corrosion Chambers

(Kesternich-type corrosion tests)

---

 

The Multigas Corrosion Chamber is designed to perform accelerated corrosion testing under controlled atmospheric conditions that simulate highly aggressive industrial and urban environments. These systems reproduce exposure conditions through the controlled introduction of corrosive gases—primarily sulfur dioxide (SO₂)—following the Kesternich test method, which is widely used to evaluate the corrosion resistance of metals, coatings, and electronic components.

 

Each chamber is capable of recreating repeatable and controlled corrosive environments while complying with international standards used across various industries, including:

• DIN 50018 (Kesternich Sulfur Dioxide Test)
• ISO 6988
• IEC 60068-2-42 / IEC 60068-2-43
• VDA 621-415
• Other equivalent gas corrosion testing standards

These systems are ideal for validating the durability of metallic components, protective coatings, electrical connectors, and materials exposed to polluted atmospheres. Multigas Corrosion Chambers provide controlled, repeatable, and traceable testing conditions, enabling quality laboratories and research centers to evaluate material performance under real-world corrosive environments.
