Elcometer 146 Saltsmart Contamination Meter determines the amount of soluble salts present in a test sample supplied by Multilab in india
Product Description
The Elcometer 146 SaltSmart™ Salt Contamination System determines the amount of soluble salts present in a test sample. Using both the Elcometer SaltSmart™ Test Strips and the Elcometer 146 SaltSmart™ Contamination Meter, this system offers a fast, easy-to-use alternative to the Bresle Test and has been proven to be equivalent to ISO 8502-9.
A de-ionised water bottle is attached to the end of the Elcometer 146 SaltSmart™ Test Strip which is then fixed to the substrate using non-residue tape. The test strip is positioned at a 10° angle to allow the water to flow on to the foam sensor which is in contact with the substrate.
After approximately 8 minutes the test strip is removed and the amount of soluble salts present is measured using the Elcometer 146 SaltSmart™ Contamination Meter, which displays and stores results in µS/cm, ug/cm² or mg/m².
Measuring salt contamination using the SaltSmart™ Contamination Meter
Taking care not to touch the white foam sensor, remove the protective packaging and place the de-ionized water bottle onto the SaltSmart™ test strip.
Place the test strip & bottle on to the substrate and hold in place with painters tape. On vertical surfaces, make sure that the red line on the test strip is horizontal - creating a 10° incline to allow water flow.
Whilst multiple test strips can be set up at the same time, after approximately 8 minutes remove each test strip in order from the surface.
Place the test strip into the SaltSmart™ meter, and read the value on the display.
Environmentally discard the test strip, bottle and tape.
