PRACTICAL FEATURES MEAN OPTIMUM PERFORMANCE
Control Packages
A basic or premium control package is available. Standard industry test specifications are built-in and pre-programmed so you can begin testing immediately. The number of programs and steps that the chamber can store varies with standard and premium controls. Both control systems can be easily updated for future testing needs of customized for special applications.
Standard Controls
- Programmable Logic Controller (PLC)
- Easy-to-use operator interface screen
- RS232 Port for computer interfacing
- Two-or four-line, 20-character text display makes chamber controlling easy to learn and master

Customize or Upgrade
In addition to the three standard CCT models available, Auto Technology has the ability to customize and upgrade chambers - either at the time of purchase or in the future.
Protected Heating Unit
Auto Technology heater strips are mounted in a vertical position under a diffuser plate to protect the heaters from any salt or solution build-up that might cause it to fail prematurely.
A grounding grid, sandwiched between the electric heater and surrounding rubber housing, is specially designed to protect the unit from stray voltage. In the rare event of a heater failure, the grid would ground the voltage and cut power to the heater, protecting both the chamber and the operator.
Bubble Tower
The bubble tower features Auto Technology's unique ATO-Fill Automatic Water Fill System, which provides longer unattended testing. The low water/high temperature sensor and pressure-relief valve are added safety features. The bubble tower can be easily serviced without disassembling the unit.
Bubble Tower shown at left, Unifog Dispersion Tower with Adjustable Cone shown at right.
Unifog® Dispersion Tower
Auto Technology's Unifog Dispersion Tower has an inverted cone design to provide uniform mist throughout the chamber. The adjustable cone located at the top not only baffles the fog evenly throughout the chamber, but can be manually raised or lowered to direct the fog to meed your testing requirements. Large droplets are deflected off the cone back into the reservoir (not onto the test specimens), according to ASTM specifications.
