Cortec VpCI (Vapor-phase Corrosion Inhibitor) emitters are unique devices designed to provide corrosion protection for metal components and parts enclosed in non-ventilated control boxes, cabinetry or tool boxes.

The VpCI devices emit vapors, which deposit a molecular layer on internal metal surfaces to protect critical, complex and expensive electronic equipment during operation, shipping or storage.

Cortec VCI emitters are small, patented foam emitters through which the corrosion inhibitor is slowly released and moisture and air pollutants can enter to be absorbed. It provides long-term protection against corrosion even in the presence of adverse conditions including salt, moisture, airborne contaminants, H2S, SO2, NH3 and others.

Typical Applications

The VpCI-101 can be effectively used for all operating, packaged and stored electrical equipment, marine navigation and communication equipment, aerospace electrical controls, electric motors, switching equipment, fuse boxes, power boxes, medical equipment, electrical wire ways, terminal boxes, scientific and measuring instruments, telecommunications equipment and remote electronics devices.

The VpCI-105 and VpCI-111 Patented Plastic Emitters have Breathable Tyvek Membranes. They are approved for use by the military, NSN# 6850-01-406-2060 and NSN# 6850-01-408-9025 respectively, and come with special self-stick backs and self-stick labels on which to write the installation date.

Method of Application

The Cortec VCI emitters are extremely simple and convenient to install. The devices should be installed at the earliest possible time, possibly even before shipping. Simply select a space within any enclosed device where corrosion protection would be useful. Verify the surface to which the device will be installed is clean and free of debris. Peel off the protective peel strip from the bottom of the device and attach it to the clean surface.

The VpCI-101 device can be installed in any position. VpCI-101 protects up to 1 cubic foot (28 liters) in volume. For volumes greater than 1 cubic foot, install more than one VpCI-101. If the enclosure is not totally air tight, or if the access doors are opened frequently, replace the VpCI-101 device more often than every 2 years. After periods of heavy maintenance replace the device.

The VpCI-105 protects 5 cubic feet (142 liters) and the VpCI-111 protects 11 cubic feet (312 liters) of enclosed space for up to two years.
