IEC60529 IP Setup for IPX3 and IPX4 Sprayproof and Splashproof Testing Equipment

1. Introduction:

IPX3-4 is designed according to IEC60529 clause 14.2.3 and 14.2.4. It is applied to simulate the electronics, luminaire, electric components and auto parts under the conditions of spraying water and splashing water, and then to check if they can meet the requirements.

The IPX3 and IPX4 waterproof test equipment is consisted by oscillating tubes (R200 to R1600), turntable,water tank, control units (touch screen+PLC), flowmeter and etc.. The oscillating tube is made of SUS304 stainless steel. For IPX3 test, the oscillating tube has spray holes over an arc of 60⁰ either side of the centre point (the other holes are blocked), the total flow rate is adjusted as standard requirement, the enclosure to be tested is placed at the center point of the semicircle, the tube is caused to oscillate through an angle of 120⁰, 60⁰ on either side of the vertical, the time for one complete oscillation (2*120⁰) being about 4s and test duration being 5min. For IPX4 test, the oscillating tube has spray holes over the whole 180’’ of the semicircle, the total flow rate is adjusted according to the standard requirement, and measured with a flowmeter. The tube is caused to oscillate through an angle of almost 360⁰, 180⁰ on either side of the vertical, and time for one complete oscillation (2*360⁰) being about 12s. The duration of the test is 10min.

2. Features:

For IPX3 and IPX4 testing

● The shell of the equipment and turntable are made by SUS304# stainless steel, to ensure rustless.

● Adopts double pillars structure, easy to install and stable rotation.

● Equip with adjustable trundles, makes the equipment easy to move.

● Filtering measures: standard high-precision filter can filter impurities in tap water; filter element can be replaced regularly.

● The water tank is built-in the equipment, auto to control the water level with the help of Water floating ball valve, and alarm at high or low level to protect from the damage caused by low water level.

● Oscillating tube drive: Adopts Panasonic serve motor, with features of low noise and high accuracy.

● Turntable drive: adopts Chinese branded step motor, can adjust the speed and angle by touch screen, and auto control the directions (fit for the samples to do live test).

● Time setting for power: power off: 0-999min-power on: 0-999min-power off: 0-999min

● Control components: 7 inch touch screen+ Panasonic PLC.

● Preset IPX3 and IPX4 test procedures, users only need to select the waterproof level, and the equipment will perform the test in accordance with the standard requirements.
