IPX5/6 and IPX9K Comprehensive Waterproof Test Chamber
1. Introduction
IPX69K High temperature and high pressure jet spray waterproof test chamber can meet the test requirements of IEC60529, DIN40050-9 figure 7 and ISO20653 figure 8 and 9. The equipment can perform the test of IPX5, IPX6, IPX6K and IPX9K testing. The user can define the test parameters by 7 inch LCD touch screen, and equipment is auto controlled by PLC (Panasonic). The nozzles, turntable and inner box are made by stainless steel, built in waterproof socket-outlet to support live test. The electrical equipment in road vehicles, motors, electric components and auto parts to should carry on the waterproof test. After the test, the user can judge if the performance of the product can meet the requirements or not, and then do the re-designing and improvement.
Details of IP grade:
IPX5 Water jets
