WHAT DOES CounterAct's FIELD EVALUATION PROGRAM SHOW?
CounterAct Electronic Rustproofing Field Evaluations:

"CounterAct electronic rust protection for salt harvesting trucks"

IMC Kalium Ogden Corp.

"...the conditions that our equipment routinely encounters in salt harvesting are among the most severe corrosion promoting environments."

"...on our pickups, metal exposed from scratches and dents can perforate in 3-6 months time if left unattended."

"...have used the CounterAct electronic rust protection system for over 10 years and stock it for routine installation on all new trucks."

"...the operating life of our trucks had been only a year and a half between rebuilds and has now been increased by at least an additional 24 months. "

"CounterAct electronic rust proofing for brine harvesting equipment"
Great Salt Lake Mineral Corp.
(Brine Harvesting Operation)
"...we stock the CounterAct electronic rustproofing systems routinely for use on all our trucks and have used it for about 15 years."

"The CounterAct electronic rust proofing systems have extended the average working life of our trucks by at least 2 years."

"...many of the fellows have a CounterAct electronic rust protection system on their personal vehicles as well after seeing what they do in the field."

I have one on my own car I really believe in CounterAct's effectiveness."

"CounterAct electronic rust protection for government snowplows and salt spreader trucks"
Dept. of Transportation
Iowa (2001)
"There is a noticeable difference between the snowplows which received the CounterAct electronic rust protection systems and those that did not. Not only is there far less rust and corrosion on the CounterAct protected snow plows but the trucks without the system show a far greater loss of paint. This tells me that the CounterAct electronic rust protection system reduces paint undercutting as well. On one plow truck we had installed an undersized pick-up truck size system. Even on this vehicle the difference from unprotected snowplow trucks was remarkable"

"CounterAct electronic rust protection on steel and aluminum boat trailers"
EZ Loader Boat Trailers (2001)
The Southeast division of EZ Loader Boat Trailers is a manufacturer of both aluminum and galvanized boat trailers. We tested a CounterAct electronic corrosion control system on one of our aluminum trailers. The trailer has aluminum I-beams as its main frame with galvanized steel cross-members and zinc plated hardware. We have observed the following after one year of use:

1.The trailer shows very small amounts of corrosion, if any.

2.The hardware is in perfect condition showing no corrosion.

In Florida we have extreme salt water conditions and I firmly believe that this trailer would show heavy corrosion if it did not have the CounterAct system.

We at EZ Loader are true believers of the CounterAct electronic corrosion control system and therefore are currently offering the system on all our trailers.

"CounterAct Electronic rust protection on heavy mining equipment"
Clough Engineering Group,
Telfer Mining (1999)
We first installed a CounterAct "electronic rust protection" system in a Wagner ST 7.5 loader about 2 years ago. The machine left this site some 2 months later and I lost sight of it until January of this year. We had used a grinder to polish an area under a wheel arch to monitor the success or otherwise of the system.

I was pleased to see that the unpainted patch was still free from rust. As we are in the planning stages of replacing our fleet we are including CounterAct "electronic rust protection" on each new machine. In fact we have just purchased an Elphinstone R1700 to which we have fitted the system.

The cost of the system is negligible compared to our corrosion problems, even in the first few months of a machine's service life."

"CounterAct electronic rust protection on fire trucks"
R. B. Burcham
Fire Dept. Equipment Foreman (1991)
"We took delivery on 4 similar fire trucks and installed the CounterAct electronic rust protection systems on 2 of these. After 30 months, visual inspection of the trucks revealed that the trucks were rust free while the 2 unprotected fire trucks already had rust forming.

On the ladder truck which had undergone extensive rust repair and on which a system was fitted afterwards, there was no evidence of further rusting at the repair site despite the use of dissimilar metals (steel and aluminum) in the repair.

On the unrepaired areas of the truck there was no sign of the existing rust progressing. Although these are subjective observations I am satisfied that the CounterAct electronic rust protection systems have proven very effective under the harsh conditions in which our fire trucks and equipment operates."

"CounterAct Electronic Rust Protection on mechanic's bed trucks"
Mac's Engineering
Mac's Engineering in conjunction with certain Coal Mines within Central Queensland ran a testing program utilizing CounterAct 4 Coupler Heavy Duty Systems (OR-4) over a period of 18 months.

The test proved to be effective by controlling the corrosion problems associated with the coal mines, sulphur being the corrosive agents.

Mac's Engineering are now supplying & fitting CounterAct (OR-4) Systems to all new Nissan Patrols going onto these Coal Mine sites in Central Queensland.

We are also looking at using CounterAct Technology to control corrosion on static structures at a local coal loading facility and for the prevention of corrosion on a steel and concrete water tower.

"CounterAct Electronic Rust Protection on off road
safari vehicles"
Duncan's Off Road (2000)
"It has been some two years now that this company has had your "electronic rust protection" product in use. During this time our two Nissan vehicles have clocked up 200,000 klms. conducting tag-a-long tours to remote parts of Australia along with our bush and sand driver training closer to home. Our vehicles negotiate countless river crossings and are constantly exposed to the elements in coastal regions; be it in Cape York, Cape Levesque, Middle Lagoon, Broome at Tully Inlet or Karumba in the gulf or closer at home, at Tewantin where monthly sand driver training is conducted.

"I have conducted my own tests on the CounterAct "electronic rust protection" unit by comparing two vehicles, one with a fitted unit and one without, over a seven day period and have clearly seen first hand how rapidly a salty environment can deteriorate a vehicle that has no such electronic aid."

" In summary, I would like to advise that our vehicles operate at times under extreme conditions and harsh terrain. We have found very obvious results and would suggest that anyone seriously interested in significantly extending the life of their motor vehicle, should consider a CounterAct "electronic corrosion control" system. I have no hesitation in recommending this unit.
