1.0 Principles of Operation
the SAAFShield Communications Module in combination with the
Detecting Unit is part of the system that allows users to monitor
atmospheric corrosion in real time. this monitoring can be used to
display and trend corrosion data over time allowing users to
evaluate operational procedures, environmental factors, or other items
that occur at specific times and their impact on producing a corrosive
environment.the SAAFShield system utilizes Quartz Crystal
Microbalance (QCM) technology to measure metal corrosion due to
reactions with the environment.
