Cortec VpCI Emitter

Electrical failures and malfunctions due to corrosion can be easily mitigated with the proper preventive maintenance plans in place.

A form of protection suited to electrical enclosures is Cortec’s Vapour phase Corrosion Inhibitor (VpCI) technology. This may be applied in the form of a VpCI-101 device, or a VpCI-105 or VpCI-111 Emitter cup placed inside the control panel or cabinet. Vapour phase Corrosion Inhibitors diffuse out of these devices, disperse throughout the enclosure and are attracted to metal surfaces where they adsorb, forming a protective molecular layer that inhibits the corrosion reaction. These molecules do not interfere with electronics performance and simply float away when the enclosure is opened.

VpCI Emitters can offer protection to electrical and electronic equipment during various important processes, including: shipment of new components; preventive maintenance of control panels, circuit breaker boxes and electrical enclosures; and the mothballing and layup of facilities.
