Chlor*Rid Announces Chlor*Ion Meter: Digitally Measures Surfaces for Salt Corrosion for More Accurate Testing


Revolutionizes Chloride Testing with Lab Quality Results

Detects Dangerous & Costly Salt Corrosion in Workboats, Bridges, Aircraft, Tanks, Dams, Ships & Highway DOTs

New Orleans, LA - CHLOR*RID International, Inc. www.chlor-rid.com, the world's leading source of soluble salt testing and soluble salt removal products, announced today at the Workboat Show in New Orleans, Chlor*Ion Meter, a patent-pending hand-held digital testing device that electronically measures chloride with an internal ion specific electrode for accurate worry-free testing. Designed specifically for the surface preparation industry, Chlor*Ion Meter digitally tests for dangerous chloride contamination and corrosion on surfaces in workboats, highways, bridges, railroads, aircraft, ships, dams, and tanks. It simply revolutionizes Chloride testing for safer corrosion-free surfaces.

Internal Electrode Makes Units More Rugged for Field Use -- Lower Cost per Test

Chlor*Ion Meter employs an internal ion-specific electrode for more rugged field use (all other devices utilize an external electrode on a cord, which can get immediately damaged in the field). Chlor*Ion Meter's ion electrode is extremely accurate, measuring chloride with lab quality results every time. Based on CHLOR*RID's popular Chlor*Test, the Chlor*Ion Meter now digitally measures chloride in surfaces, removing operator error caused when either the testing tube is not read correctly or results are recorded incorrectly. In addition, Chlor*Ion Meter dramatically reduces the cost per test by eliminating the need for a glass titrator tube as needed with non-digital tests. Record keeping is far faster, easier and more accurate.

Chlor*Ion Meter Features:

o Logs job name or number and location of test with an alpha numeric keypad (uses either numbers or letters).

o All readings are recorded electronically for lab-quality accuracy.

o Data is downloadable to a spreadsheet, such as Excel.

o Downloaded data includes job identification, location, date and time.

o Connects via USB to any computer.

o Readings are secure as the operator cannot change or delete them.

o Patent-pending.

o Made in the U.S.A.

Applications for Chlor*Ion Meter Use to Remove Chloride from Surfaces:

o Bridge Structures

o Ships

o Mining Facilities

o Storage Tanks

o Public Utilities

o Electronics

o Offshore Drilling Rigs

o Marine Structures

o Process Equipment

o Pulp and Paper Mills

o Power Generation Plants

o Natural Gas Facilities

o Saw Mills

o Petrochemical Installations

o Piping

o Cooling Towers

o Railcars

o Aircraft
