ESU 6 Electrolyte Staining Unit

Cleaning of Surface (Electrolyte Staining) :

The ESU 6 Electrolyte Staining Unit is a component of the MicroGraph System for the creation of high quality cross-sectional images of crimp connections and others.

Simple, Quick & Clean :

Contrary to common etching methods, the ESU 6 doesn’t use aggressive chemicals to remove dirt or impurities. The electrolyte staining process is environmentally-friendly and much safer than traditional methods. The solution has a pH value similar to water between 6.5 and 7.5 and the staining process requires a very low electrical current. Because the solution is not acidic, no toxic fumes are created during the process. Therefore, a cut and polished surface can quickly be cleaned directly under the microscope. Results are immediately visible and time-consuming re-work or waiting times are completely eliminated.
