AEROTEST® Weber Rielly Indicator
Soluble Salt Tester.
This method of determining the concentration of soluble ferrous salts was developed by two well know South African paint chemists who worked on an ISO (International Standards Organisation) Committee during 1985 to 1987 namely: The late Fritz Weber & Charles Rielly. Hence the name Weber Rielly Soluble Salt Test Kit”
This method is covered in SSPC Technology Guide 15 section 5.9. Instead of using test strips the vivid red colour of the complex formed between the Redox Indicator and the Ferrous Ion is diluted to pink by the white pigment dispersion.
Pack Size: 400 ml (Pack of 12)
Features & Benefits
- Quick, clean, and easy aerosol-based soluble salt testing method
- Identifies the presence of destructive soluble ferrous salts
- Can be used more than 20 times when instructions are followed
- Provides a reliable quality control tool for surface preparation
Intended Uses
AEROTEST® Weber Rielly Soluble Salt Tester is used to detect soluble iron salts such as ferrous chloride and ferrous sulphate, which are commonly found in corrosion pits on badly corroded steel. These hygroscopic salts attract moisture and can lead to osmotic blistering and premature coating failure if not removed prior to coating.
The test kit provides a simple and effective method for identifying soluble salt contamination on blast-cleaned steel surfaces, helping ensure proper surface preparation and long-term coating performance.
Typical uses include:
- Detection of soluble salts on blast-cleaned steel
- Surface preparation quality control
- Prevention of osmotic blistering in coatings
- Inspection prior to coating application
- Industrial and protective coating environments
