Work Item
ASTM WK94957
Revision of B117-19 Standard Practice for Operating Salt Spray (Fog) Apparatus
Rationale
There is a sentence within X1.4 “A chamber operated in accordance with this method and Appendix X1 will have a relative humidity between 95 % and 98 %” has caused confusion with some users and auditors. After multiple discussions in the G01.05.03 Cabinet Corrosion Tests & Salt Spray Test task group, it has been suggested to simply delete this sentence. Since users don’t measure relative humidity during this test, and it is not a requirement for records or reports, it will remove confusion by deleting this sentence
