Condensation water-based climate test using sulphur dioxide (Kesternich) in accordance with DIN EN ISO 22479 / DIN EN ISO 6988 / DIN 50018

By introducing sulphur dioxide into a cyclical climate of condensation and dry air, we simulate an industrial atmosphere and acid rain, and demonstrate how your coating or finish reacts to these conditions.
