Corrosion Cabinet Support Services
ESGCal is the industry expert in corrosion cabinet installation and startup for various corrosion manufacturers. If your organization plans to purchase new, used, or refurbished current equipment, we can help. We can provide expert guidance on selecting the right technologies, pricing for any modifications or refurbishing costs, or selecting the appropriate new equipment. We do not Sell equipment; we service equipment. Our commitment is to support your product questions and setup needs before you purchase.
Corrosion Cabinet Planning and Installation
Our services include the needs analysis for properly installing and operating the equipment. This consists of the utilities, water filtering, layout configuration, and, most importantly, training on the maintenance and operational standards to keep your equipment compliant with the needed corrosion standard requirements.
If needed, ESGCal will be onsite, providing the actual equipment assembly and setup with your team of electricians and technical skill-building maintenance staff. As part of this service, we include calibration services as part of the setup.
Corrosion Cabinet Refurbishing
Services include reconditioning corrosion testing equipment. This service can be provided onsite, or, depending on the efforts, the equipment can be refurbished at our facilities or qualified service centers. We provide pricing for these services in advance, but there can be unforeseen additional costs with all refurbishing services. Should you be interested in purchasing used or refurbished equipment, please contact us well in advance to help determine the value vs. cost returns on the investments.

Test Standards & Methods that can be incorporated into your Corrosion Chamber Start-up
ESGCal has been an expert in corrosion chamber test methods for 30 years. If you know the standards you need to perform, we can help you with all the logistics, including defining the chamber specifications, chamber brands, and models with required options, supplies, installation, and startup. Training for your staff may be critical in understanding the daily services needed to run the equipment and evaluating the test specimen results. If you do not see the specific standard below, call us on the required standard.
- ASTM B117 - Salt Fog: This standard is globally recognized as the most common method for materials' performance against corrosion resistance. ASTM B117 is a salt spray test that accelerates corrosion to simulate a hot, humid, and salty environment. View the Standard
- ASTM D1654 - Corrosive Resistance: Test method standard for evaluating how well-painted or coated materials resist corrosion in various corrosive environments. View the Standard
- ASTM D3359 - Coating Adhesive: International standard test method for measuring how well a film coating adheres to a metallic substrate. It's also known as the Cross Hatch test. View the Standard
- MIL-STD-810 Method 509 - Salt Fog: United States Department of Defense, Military Standard that establishes uniform methods for testing materials and equipment corrosion resistance. The standard includes several tests that evaluate a material's resistance to environmental stresses, such as acidic atmospheres, salt fog, and fluid contamination. Typically called out as Method 509.7. There are many different versions of this standard. We provide access to Mil-Std-810F in our link. View the Standard
- MIL-STD-202: a regulatory standard that outlines a set of test methods for evaluating the performance of electrical and electronic components. The standard is used to ensure that products are ready for the market and are able to withstand the environmental conditions and physical stresses of military operations.
- MIL-STD-883: a military test standard that establishes uniform procedures, controls, and methods for testing microelectronic devices. The goal of the standard is to identify devices that can withstand the effects of natural elements and conditions, and are suitable for use in military and aerospace electronic systems.
- MIL-STD-1344: a standard that establishes uniform test methods for electrical connectors.
- RTCA DO-160: an international standard that defines the environmental test conditions and procedures for airborne equipment. The purpose is to determine how well airborne equipment performs in the environmental and electrical conditions it may encounter during flight.
- IEC 60068-2: a globally recognized standard that evaluates the ability of equipment, components, and products to withstand environmental conditions. It simulates the mechanical stresses and climatic conditions a product may experience during its lifetime. This testing helps manufacturers assess the durability, performance, and ruggedness of their products.
- SAE J1455: a test standard that outlines recommended environmental practices for electronic equipment in heavy-duty and off-road vehicles.
- SAE J2334: a laboratory test procedure that simulates outdoor exposure to corrosion by using a cyclic salt spray test. Used to determines how a coating system, substrate, process, or design will perform in the face of corrosion
-
SAE J 1211: a handbook that provides guidance on the robustness of electrical and electronic modules (EEMs) used in automotive applications. It focuses on:
1) Hardware and manufacturing failure mechanisms
2) Methods for detecting and preventing extrinsic reliability issues
3) The Zero Defect concept for component manufacturing and product use
