The Corrosion Study Unit ReaktiLabX - 04 investigates corrosion behavior and protection measures using 8 glass electrolyte vessels. This Corrosion Study Unit tests stainless steel, steel, copper, brass, and aluminum specimens under varying pH, salt concentration, and voltage conditions. It features an adjustable power pack, diaphragm pump, and manual pH measurement for comprehensive corrosion analysis. External voltage, sacrificial anodes, and protective layers are all studied for corrosion protection.

Construction and Design
The Corrosion Study Unit ReaktiLabX - 04 consists of 8 electrolyte vessels, made of glass with a capacity of 1000mL each, fitted with covers and 6 specimen holders per vessel. Specimens include stainless steel, steel, copper, brass, and aluminum, 5 of each material. An adjustable power pack, rated 0 to 30VDC and 0 to 5A, applies external voltage to specimens connected via electrical conductor for sacrificial anode and local component studies. A diaphragm pump, flow rated approximately 250L/h, introduces ambient air into the electrolyte solution as needed, with a reversing valve allowing air or external gas supply at a pressure range of 0.2 to 1bar. Each vessel's gas flow rate is customized using flow control valves. A manual unit records the pH value of electrolyte solutions, with a measuring range of 0 to 14 and a resolution of 0.01.
