C SERIES SALT FOG (SPRAY) CHAMBERS
C Series Salt Fog Chambers
Reliable Salt Fog Testing for Basic Qualification
For labs evaluating entry-level fiberglass salt fog chambers—or comparing options like Q-Fog and Ascott—the C Series provides dependable, specification-correct corrosion performance without the cost or complexity of advanced cyclic platforms.
Dependable Salt Fog Performance
Designed for stable, repeatable ASTM B117 and ISO 9227 corrosion testing.
Fiberglass Chamber Construction
Built for everyday lab use with a practical, entry-level chamber platform.
Basic Qualification + Simple Cyclic Work
Ideal for coatings, substrates, and component testing where advanced cyclic complexity is not required.
Ideal for Routine Testing and Entry-Level Cyclic Work: The C Series delivers dependable, specification-based performance for laboratories that need to run ASTM B117, ISO 9227, and simple cyclic exposures. Built from fiberglass and engineered for everyday use, this chamber provides a stable, repeatable environment for coatings, substrates, and component testing.
Start the test. The C Series handles the rest.
The C Series touchscreen controls are designed to make salt fog testing simple and repeatable. With a 6-inch color touchscreen, you can start, monitor, and manage tests without navigating complex software or manually managing conditions.
Preloaded test methods and built-in safeguards help ensure that tests are run the same way every time — regardless of operator experience. Start the test. The C Series handles the rest.
Simple Salt Fog Operation
Preloaded methods and guided controls make everyday testing easier to run consistently.
Up to 15 Stored Programs
Save routine methods and recurring workflows so you can run the same test the same way.
Built-In Safeguards
Live status visibility, alarm prompts, and protected manual functions help reduce mistakes.
Built for everyday lab use: Select a method, press start, and let the chamber handle the rest — reducing training time and minimizing setup mistakes.
Simple Control. Clear Options.
The numbered references below correspond to the controls shown on the screen above.
The touchscreen main menu is designed to keep operation straightforward. Each option takes you directly to a specific function, so operators can quickly start a test, check status, or access setup without digging through complicated menus.
Monitor Test in Progress (1)
View current test status and method information while the chamber is running.
Select Test to Run (2)
Choose a stored test method and start the run with minimal setup.
Manual Control (3)
Access manual output control for troubleshooting, including lid operation,
heaters, air, solution flow, purge, and drain functions.
Profile Setup (4)
Edit test parameters including purge timing, mixer timing (if equipped),
and bubble tower temperature setpoints.
Machine Setup (5)
Configure system behavior such as purge timing, manual step control,
power loss recovery, and temperature setpoints.
Calibration (6)
View dry bulb, bubble tower, and wet bulb readings directly from the controller
(wet bulb if equipped).
Contact Us (7)
Access Auto Technology contact information directly from the controller.
Preloaded Standards + User Program Flexibility
The controller stores up to 15 total programs, including ASTM B117 / ISO 9227 NSS preloaded for immediate use. Most labs can begin testing right away without creating custom profiles.
Additional program slots allow you to save repeatable workflows or slightly modified procedures, so once a test is set up, it can be run the same way every time.
Preloaded Programs
- ASTM B117 / ISO 9227 NSS
- Ready-to-run setup for baseline salt fog testing
- Fast startup for routine qualification work
User Programs
- Support for repeatable saved workflows
- Useful for recurring internal procedures
- Editable standard test programs for lab-specific adaptation
Practical flexibility: Start with a recognized salt fog method, then save your preferred setup so you can run the same workflow again without rebuilding it each time.
Live Monitoring & Cycle Visibility
The monitoring screen gives operators a clear view of current test conditions and cycle status.
The touchscreen provides clear, real-time feedback so you always know what the chamber is doing. Instead of guessing or manually checking conditions, the system displays test status, timing, and key operating values in a simple, readable format.
At-a-Glance Status
View current test information, active step details, and chamber status from one screen.
Timing Visibility
See step timing and remaining cycle time without manual tracking or guesswork.
Key Operating Values
Monitor chamber temperatures, solution condition, and other important run information as the test progresses.
Cycle Control During Operation
You can interact with an active test without restarting or reprogramming the chamber. This makes it easier to manage long-duration salt fog tests while keeping the workflow straightforward.
Cycle Pause
Temporarily stop the cycle.
Resume
Continue from the current step.
Step Cycle
Advance to the next programmed step.
Cycle Stop
End the test cycle.
Automatic recovery from power interruption with cycle resume capability: For long-running corrosion tests, a power outage does not have to mean lost test time. The controller supports restart and resume behavior so interrupted runs can be recovered without starting from zero.
Manual Control, Mix & Purge Functions
Manual control is available for troubleshooting and maintenance, but normal operation does not require it. The system is designed so routine salt fog testing can be completed without interacting with individual components.
- One-touch mix and purge functions with preset timing control
- Timed manual control with automatic shutdown to prevent unintended operation
MIX Function
If equipped, the MIX function allows you to start solution mixing directly from the control screen. The controller runs the mix cycle for the preset duration, improving consistency without requiring manual timing.
PURGE Function
The PURGE function vents to help clear the chamber before opening, supporting cleaner sample access and a simpler day-to-day workflow around the cabinet.
Setup, Calibration & System Control
The touchscreen provides direct access to machine setup parameters and calibration displays, allowing consistent and repeatable operation. These pages help you manage chamber behavior, support routine checks, and respond faster when attention is needed.
Designed for Simple, Repeatable Testing
The C Series touchscreen is built for real labs — where not every operator is an engineer, and consistency matters more than complexity.
By combining preloaded methods, clear monitoring, and built-in safeguards, the system makes it easier to run repeatable salt fog tests without overcomplicating the process.
From editable standard programs and live safety-input visibility to power-loss resume, timed manual control, and one-touch mix and purge functions, the control package supports the day-to-day realities of corrosion testing in a working lab. Start the test. The C Series handles the rest.
