Corrosion Analysis

• Brand Name: Purafil
• Application: Industrial
• Analysis Type: Physical/Chemical Properties
• Industry Body Standards: ISA 71:04-2013
• Testing Type: Corrosion Monitoring with Rh and Temperature

The advanced CCC+ or Corrosion Classification Coupon+ reliably determines the type and thickness of corrosion build-up on the surface of each CCC+.  In addition, it logs the temperature and relative humidity for classification.  The CCC+ includes a report detailing the severity of corrosion in the room as defined by the ISA Standard 71.04-2013, the accepted guideline for warranties of electronic equipment. Typical CCC Installation Sites Industrial and Mission Critical Environments: Control Rooms, Rack Rooms, Motor Control Centers, Data Centers, Server Rooms, and Critical Parts Storage Rooms. Museum and Library Environments: Recirculation Air Handlers, Storage Rooms, Display Cases, Archives, and Historic Houses. Clean Room Manufacturing Environments: Semiconductor, HDD, LED, and more. Customer Benefits Unobtrusive, easy installation and data gathering Economical investment for determining air quality Scientifically supported, reliable results Provides the documentation required for manufacturers’ warranty compliance Vital for determining corrective solutions to protect equipment, processes, and artifacts Copper and Silver Analysis: After an installation period of 30 days, the CCCs are collected from the field and returned to Purafil’s laboratory for analysis. The purpose of CCC analysis is to determine the type and thickness of corrosion films on the surface  of each metal coupon. A normalized 30-day reactivity  rate is calculated using the amount of time the metal  coupon is exposed and the thickness of the corrosion  that has formed. ISA Environmental Classes: Airborne Contaminants This standard requires that rooms containing backplane wired equipment, instrumentation, process control  systems or computers, must have a G1 environmental classification, defined in terms of corrosion thickness as 0-299 Angstroms (Å) per 30 days on copper and 0-199 Å per 30 days on silver coupons. Purafil provides a report that directly correlates to the G1, G2, G3, and GX ratings.
