Proven
Efficiency and Environmental Benefits
The ACC(R) 900 Series is the most recent addition to a
family of Henkel
Autophoretic(R) coatings applied through autodeposition -- an environmentally
sound
process pioneered by Henkel that deposits an extremely uniform film of
coatings. Unlike other processes
, autodeposition does not need electricity to
"throw" coatings into recessed areas, which generates
savings in energy
consumption.
The autodeposition process for Henkel ACC(R) coatings reacts
directly to
ferrous metals, and therefore does not require chemical conversion coating,
reducing
environmental impact and eliminating the need for extra treatment
equipment and manufacturing steps
. TRANSCAT's Master Catalog offers easy access to
more than 25,000 instruments, such as: calibrators
, deadweight testers,
temperature devices, multimeters, oscilloscopes, pressure pumps, testers,

translates into shorter cycle times, lower operating

the potential for coating buildup on racks, which reduces the need
for costly stripping.
