The Passi Flash 3036 is the latest innovation in passivation testing for stainless steel equipment and parts. Say goodbye to the old-fashioned and inconvenient copper sulfate, ferroxyl, and salt spray tests. This kit is much better than the Feroxyl and Copper Sulfate tests. The Passi-Flash 3036 is a rapid response method for verifying stainless steel parts and equipment. The Passi-Flash 3036 is approved by ASME BPE standards.
Across many industries, folks are worried about their stainless steel parts and equipment showing signs of wear or corrosion. Most people don’t even realize that stainless steel can corrode. Nasty-looking discoloration can occur on essential processing equipment, leading to contamination and diminished surface appearance. Manufacturers and engineers are all shooting for the highest quality for their customers. Luckily, the Passi-Flash 3036 can alert you before you run into problems. Performing regular Passi-Tests as part of your routine maintenance of critical components can prevent discoloration. Use this kit in combination with ASTM-approved passivation cleaning procedures. No need to bring in an army of surface treatment experts or send your parts to an outside lab. Use the Passi-Flash to get instant, reliable results in your facility.

HOW IT WORKS:
The 3036 is the single most efficient method for measuring the corrosion tendency of stainless steel surfaces. Through a galvanic process, it detects surface-free iron, which can lead to discoloration and corrosion. These free iron particles may arise due to cutting, mechanical use, grinding, or chemical contamination of stainless steel parts. The Passi-Tester can be used with all chromium-containing sess steels, such as 304 and 316, and precipitation-hardened steels, like 17-4, 15-5, and 17-7.
The 3036 lets you know if…
- The surface is passive. It has been through an approved passivation bath.
- Free iron particles are present on the surface. This surface is Non-Passive.
- The surface is without a passive oxide layer. This surface is Non-Passive.
