Sustainable working time of salt spray test machine

In theory, a salt spray tester can operate continuously for very long periods of time. Some high-quality salt spray testers can operate continuously year-round. However, in practice, operating times vary depending on factors such as testing requirements, equipment maintenance, and unexpected situations.

Based on testing requirements, common salt spray test durations include 24 hours, 48 ​​hours, 72 hours, and 96 hours, typically set in multiples of 24 hours. For example, for basic salt spray corrosion resistance testing of ordinary metal products, 48 ​​or 72 hours may be sufficient. However, for products that require long-term use in harsh environments, such as equipment components exposed to coastal environments, salt spray testing for 1,000 hours or even longer may be required.

Dongguan Zhongzhi Times Testing Equipment Co., Ltd. reminds you that during the test, if the equipment malfunctions, insufficient salt water or distilled water supply, or malfunctions in key components such as the compressor, the salt spray tester will be interrupted. Therefore, when using a salt spray tester, regular maintenance is necessary to ensure its long-term stable operation.
