Designed to accurately measure surface chloride, sulphate and nitrate ions in minutes, This kit offers the user the ability of trouble-free performance testing in the field.
All the components of the Test Kit are pre-measured and pre-dosed for complete accuracy.
All results are recorded in parts per million (ppm) - no complicated calculations needed to transfer these to µgcm¯² as the tests of the kit are designed to be on a ratio of 1:1
Supplied in an ABS plastic carry case for easy portability around the site, each field kit is supplied with full instructions attached to the inside lid, together with:
5 x Chloride Tests
5 x Tests, together with 1 x Colorimeter, for Sulphate Testing
Chloride Salts left on the surface before the first coat is applied can result in the coating system being forced off the surface by corrosion or blistering before the full life of the coating has been reached.
To ensure that the chloride has been removed it is essential that the surface is tested before the coating is applied.
Coatings can fail due to chlorides being deposited on a surface by contaminated water during pressure washing, UHP water jetting or wet abrasive blasting.
The Chloride Ion Test Kit is an easy to use, accurate, field based test which determines if your wash water is contaminated with chlorides and thus prevent costly surface coating failures. It can also be used to monitor the recycled water (after it has been applied) to establish how effectively salt removal is occurring.
Many coatings have failed from chlorides deposited on a surface by contaminated
abrasive. Finally, there is a test that you can do in the field in minutes! No more
sending samples to a laboratory; no waiting days for results; no high cost.
