IPX3 to IPX6 Integrated Spray Nozzle and Hose Nozzle Water Spray Test System
Overview:
The waterproof testing system is used to verify verify the protective performance of the enclosure for electronic and electrical products, automobiles, motorcycle parts, household appliances, seals and lamps under water spraying and splashing at degree IPX3 & IPX4 and water jets at degree IPX5 and IPX6.
The water ingress testing system ensures that the water spray and water jet speed reach the standard required value by controlling the water supply flow, make the enclosure of the specimen to be splashed in all directions or sprayed from all practicable directions.
Standards compliant:
IEC 60529-2013 “Degrees of protection provided by enclosure (IP code)” IPX3, IPX4, IPX5 and IPX6
IEC 60598-1-2017 “Luminaries-Part1: General requirements and tests”
Structure:
The test equipment consists of a hand-held spray nozzle, a hose nozzle, a support, water storage tank an electrical control cabinet and a turntable. The nozzles are fixed on the support, the sample is placed on the turntable, the turntable has a rotation speed of 1r/min and its rotation is driven by motor, to make the enclosure of the specimen to be splashed in all directions or sprayed from all practicable directions. The water storage tank and electrical control part are interaged. This whole system adopts open type structure.
