| 摘要 |
<p>The deterioration monitoring system (25) comprises a metallic corrosion detector (10) for sensing levels of corrosion and generating an uncorrected signal, a calibration and correction algorithm (27) for converting the uncorrected signal to a corrected signal representing true-corrosion, a comparison step (29) for comparing the amount of measured corrosion with a user-selected or industry-predetermined standard corresponding to the highest acceptable quantity of deterioration, and a data logger (30) for storing the values of the amount of measured corrosion. The deterioration monitoring system (25) can be placed in a portable housing (26 or 36), such as a shipping container (44), a computer hardware system (50), a camera (60), or any other system subject to deterioration induced by its environment so as to monitor levels of corrosion.</p> |
