3.
Place the tip of the test probe on the area to be tested and the ground in contact with the metal
surface and press START.
4. Maintain the contact in position for the entire duration of the test.
5.
After testing, remove any residual electrolyte solution from the test area, using a clean cloth or
wipe and SURFOX-N™ cleaner.
NOTE: Typical values are +100mV or higher for an AISI 304, and for a carbon steel (not stainless) –
500mV. If you get a positive value, the tested area of your stainless steel is passive. If you get a
negative value, the tested area of your stainless steel is active.
NOTICE: It is known that during the welding process, the heat treatment alters the passivation of the
stainless steel and forms a layer of non protective oxides, slug and iridescence. It is not recommended
to use the tester in these areas without prior cleaning. Without proper cleaning, it may cause false
results due to the dielectric behaviour of the non-protective oxides and slug and risk irreparably
polluting the tip which therefore distorts subsequent readings.
