CouplerTec from Australia is an effective electronic system for professional protection against rust for all cars or trucks which are exposed to corrosive envirionment. Depending on vehicle size a system with the appropriate number of capacitive pads is installed in the vehicle. Personal cars/4WD range is from 2 to 6 pads and commercial vehicles from 4 to 12 pads.
CouplerTec draws a small amount of energy from the vehicle battery and feeds the 2-12 coupler pads (depending on the size of the vehicle) with pulses. This 200kHz / 400V pulses generate over the entire vehicle (car body and chassis where available) a capacitive negative charge to protect against rust (rust-oxidation of iron Fe and oxygen O2 to Fe2O3 is suppressed).
When is the use of CouplerTec useful:
- Vehicles in winter are exposed to the use of streuscy
- If vehicles are frequently exposed to salt water / seawater
- If vehicles are exposed to corrosive material / soil (around mines etc.)
- If cars were restored (investment protection for vintage / rare)
Advantages when used with CouplerTec:
- Recurring safeguards such as underbody protection are unnecessary
- Maintenance and service costs are reduced
- Attachments including bumpers or roof racks in aluminum are also protected
- Resale value of the vehicle is increased
- Older vehicles can be stabilized against rust
- The coating remains like new
- paint damage does not cause corrosion
- The emergence of static electricity is prevented
Installation and maintenance of CouplerTec:
- Installation time car / 4WD approximately 2-6h depending on the system size (ca. 1h/pad)
- Installation time Trucks / Construction 4-10h depending on the system size (ca. 1h/pad)
- Annual installation verification by authorized personnel
