When your laptop comes into contact with liquid, it can cause serious damage. Liquid on the computer's motherboard initiates electrolysis processes. Electrolysis is a technique used in chemical and industrial production to break down chemical elements and compounds by means of electric current. This process causes corrosion on the computer motherboard, changing the properties of the components. For example, if a component is supposed to pass 3 volts, the corrosion can cause it to pass 19 volts, which causes the component to burn and the computer to fail. The sooner a corroded computer is cleaned up, the less likely it is that serious faults will occur, which means lower repair costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The keyboard is one of the most commonly affected components in the event of fluid ingress. Often, it is necessary to replace it with a new one. If the keys on your keyboard are sticky, it can be cleaned in an ultrasonic bath, a procedure that costs from \u20ac15. In addition to the keyboard, liquids can also damage other components such as the video card, the RAM (RAM) or the hard disk drive (HDD). The rate of corrosion also depends on the type of liquid, for example, Coca-Cola or sweet tea cause more damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Condensation can also damage your computer. In winter, bringing your computer from a cold to a warm environment can cause condensation to form on the motherboard, which acts like frosting. To avoid condensation, it is recommended that you leave your computer unplugged at room temperature for about 30-40 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If your computer has been affected, it is important to take immediate action:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Once the computer has been filled, it must be dismantled, dried and cleaned properly. Even if the computer is working after refilling, it is important to check it, as there may be some corrosive liquid left inside. Components such as chips absorb moisture, so it is important not to delay cleaning procedures. If the computer cannot be cleaned in time, it may no longer be fit for use.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" When your laptop comes into contact with liquid, it can cause serious damage.
