8.5 Corrosion Inspection
Emerging Lifesaving Technologies ELT is designed and tested to the highest environmental
testing standards. The unit is made out of a specially designed polycarbonate that is resistant to
the harshest applications in aviation today. The unit is sealed and should not allow moisture or
most chemical or fluids to infiltrate the system.
Regular (annual) inspections should be made of the outside of the units. While it is very
unlikely, IF ANY deterioration or corrosion is found, a more detailed inspection is warranted.
Return the unit to the manufacturer for inspection.
