| 摘要 |
A smart enclosure protection system for packages containing one or more metals comprises various sensors such as relative humidity, temperature of the metal, temperature within the package, a volatile corrosion inhibitor sensor, as well as a relative humidity sensor. Upon a computer receiving a signal from one or more of the noted sensors that the sensing item is either above or below a predetermined value, it will send a signal to one or more dispensers such as a dehumidifying compound dispenser, a volatile corrosion inhibitor compound dispenser, a soluble corrosion inhibitor compound dispenser, or a chemical fluid absorber or scavenger dispenser to dispense one or more such dispensing compounds that abates or removes an actual or a potential corrosion inhibiting situation. |

1. A corrosion protection enclosure system for maintaining an on-demand, long-term corrosion-free environment, comprising:
an enclosure capable of containing a metal article, said enclosure having at least one sensor, said sensor comprising: at least one relative humidity sensor for sensing the relative humidity in said enclosure, at least one temperature sensor for sensing the temperature in said enclosure, at least one VCI sensor for sensing the amount of VCI vapor in said enclosure, or at least one CF sensor for sensing the amount of a corrosive fluid in said enclosure, or any combination thereof; said enclosure having at least one corrosion abating dispenser, said dispenser comprising: at least one dehumidifier dispenser located either inside said enclosure or outside said enclosure and having at least one dehumidifying compound therein, at least one VCI dispenser located either inside said enclosure or outside said enclosure and having at least one VCI therein, or at least one SCI dispenser located either inside said enclosure or outside said enclosure and having at least one SCI therein, or at least one CFAS dispenser located either inside said enclosure or outside said enclosure and having at least one CFAS therein, or any combination thereof; a microprocessor, said microprocessor, independently, being operatively connected to said at least one relative humidity sensor, to said at least one temperature sensor, to said at least one VCI sensor, or to said at least one CF sensor, or any combination thereof; said microprocessor, independently, being operatively connected to said at least one dehumidifying compound dispenser, or said at least one VCI dispenser, or at least one SCI dispenser, or said at least one CFAS dispenser, or any combination thereof; and said microprocessor, independently, upon receiving a signal from any of said sensors that the amount of the detected item thereof is abnormal being capable of energizing said one or more corrosion abating dispensers and releasing said at least one corrosion abating dispensing compound into said enclosure. |
