Active Corrosion Monitoring Unit
AQOZA CORROSENSE Active 2.0 is an advanced device designed to monitor and store real-time data on air corrosivity within indoor environments. This innovative unit provides crucial protection for sensitive electronic components by actively detecting and tracking corrosion rates in the air, enabling timely intervention and maintenance. Using Electrical Resistance (ER) technology, the CORROSENSE Active 2.0 measures metal tracks' electrical resistance to atmospheric conditions, providing precise corrosion rate calculations. The device complies with the ANSI/ISA-S71.04 Environmental Conditions for Process Measurement and Control Systems: Airborne Contaminants standard, ensuring reliable and standardized measurement of corrosive air conditions for electronics and electrical equipment.
Key Features
- Real-time corrosion monitoring for proactive maintenance.
- Interactive and user-friendly software for easy data access and analysis.
- 5" LCD touchscreen display for convenient on-device monitoring.
- Replaceable copper and silver sensors for detecting specific corrosive agents.
- Replaceable temperature, pressure, and humidity sensors for comprehensive environmental analysis.
- Power input options via Ethernet (PoE) or C-Type Adaptor.
Principle of Operation
The AQOZA CORROSENSE Active 2.0 employs ER technology to directly measure the electrical resistance of exposed and unexposed metal tracks. By calculating the corrosion rate, the device categorizes severity levels according to the ANSI/ISA-S71.04 standard:
- G1 - Mild
- G2 - Moderate
- G3 - Harsh
- GX - Extreme
The corrosion severity is represented in angstroms for copper and silver sensors, with real-time measurements allowing for predictive maintenance and enhanced equipment reliability.
Benefits of Online Corrosion Monitoring
- Detects corrosive gases in real-time to minimize risks.
- Reduces hardware failure rates by providing actionable data on corrosion levels.
- Supports predictive maintenance for air handling and filtration systems.
- Ensures compliance with environmental and operational standards for critical facilities.
ANSI/ISA-S71.04 Standard
The ANSI/ISA 71.04 standard is the most widely recognized international guideline for corrosion monitoring. Developed by the International Society of Automation (ISA), this standard specifies the types and concentrations of airborne contaminants that cause corrosion, helping organizations classify their environments and ensure the reliability of sensitive equipment.
AQOZA’s CORROSENSE Active 2.0 offers a reliable, user-friendly solution for industries looking to monitor and manage indoor air corrosivity effectively. Protect your electronics and maintain operational efficiency with AQOZA’s state-of-the-art corrosion monitoring technology.
Passive Corrosion Monitoring with Corrosion Coupons
AQOZA ER P01 Corrosion Coupons provide a passive, reliable method for monitoring indoor corrosivity levels. These advanced corrosion coupons, based on Electrical Resistance (ER) technology, are designed to assess corrosion passively in sensitive environments. The monitoring process involves placing corrosion coupons in the field for a period of 30 days. After exposure, the coupons are returned to AQOZA’s laboratory, where the amount of corrosion on copper and silver films is measured by analyzing the electrical resistance of both exposed and unexposed metallic films. This method adheres to the ANSI/ISA-S71.04 international standard for measuring environmental corrosion levels, ensuring accurate and standardized results.
Key Features
- Advanced ER-based corrosion coupons for precise monitoring.
- Accurate and quick results with minimal user intervention.
- High-quality copper and silver coupon films for monitoring specific corrosive agents.
- Passive monitoring technique suitable for a wide range of environments.
- Easy installation with minimal disturbance to the facility.
Application Fields
- Control Rooms: Protect critical control systems from corrosive damage.
- Clean Rooms: Ensure optimal air quality and prevent equipment degradation.
- Rack Rooms and Motor Control Centers: Monitor corrosive levels to maintain equipment reliability.
- Data Centers: Safeguard sensitive electronics from harmful atmospheric conditions.
- Imaging Clinics and Labs: Preserve high-value equipment in medical and research environments.
Copper and Silver Coupon Film Analysis
AQOZA’s corrosion coupons are deployed at the site for 30 days and then analyzed in the laboratory to measure the resistance of field-exposed films. Using ER technology, AQOZA determines the corrosion rate and provides a detailed analysis report. This report offers clients a clear understanding of the corrosion levels in their facility, helping them make informed decisions about air filtration needs and preventive maintenance. AQOZA’s Passive Corrosion Monitoring is a cost-effective solution for assessing indoor air quality and safeguarding equipment from corrosion-related damage.
