5-8-2009 Pepperl+Fuchs Elcon at the meeting about corrosion Pepperl+Fuchs Elcon took part at a meeting held in Milan on 8th July titled “The corrosion of the metallic materials in the natural environment.” One of the speakers was Fabio Citterico, a Pepperl+Fuchs Elcon technician skillful in technologies and measurement of corrosion. After a brief introduction about the theory of the electrochemical corrosion, in the industrial process, Citterico focused his speech on technologies of measurement of the general corrosion and on pitting. The second half of the speech concerned the technology implementation of the field instruments. This second matter caught the interest of the people present because the explanation was very clear and practical. Citterico passed from theory to practice easily. The other speakers present at the meeting were: Marco Ormellese from Politecnico of Milan, Pierangela Cristiani from ERSE SpA and Giorgio Pieraboni from CESI SpA. |
