NM01SST1
The PosiTector® SST by DeFelsko is a specialized instrument designed for the precise measurement of soluble salt contamination on metal surfaces. This kit combines the user-friendly PosiTector Standard Gage Body with the dedicated PosiTector SST Probe, creating a powerful and reliable solution for assessing surface cleanliness prior to coating application.
The PosiTector SST directly measures the concentration of soluble salts, which are a primary cause of premature coating failure due to osmotic blistering and corrosion. By accurately quantifying these contaminants, users can ensure proper surface preparation and maximize the lifespan of protective coatings.
This instrument adheres to the internationally recognized standards ISO 8502-6 (Bresle method - extraction of soluble salts for analysis) and ISO 8502-9 (field method for the conductometric determination of water-soluble salts). It simplifies the testing process, providing quick and accurate results directly on the job site.
