IEC 60529 IPX1 IPX2 Vertical Rain Drip Box Water Ingress Test
Chamber
Complied Standards & Clauses
IEC60529:2013 “Degrees of protection provided by enclosure (IP
code)” IPX1 and IPX2.
Equipment Overview
Structure: The device is composed of a drip mechanism and an electric control
cabinet. The drip box is fixed to the top of the chamber. There is
a turntable, has a rotation speed of 1r/min, used for IPX1 test;
With 15° sample support block, used for IPX2 test; the height of
the turntable can be adjusted manually, matching the distance 200mm
from the needle to the sample. The test equipment is equipped with
a water filter cleaning device to prevent pinhole blockage. This
whole system adopts chamber structure.
Samples and Restrictions: Electrical and electronic products, automobiles, motorcycle parts,
communication products, household appliances, outdoor lighting and
signal devices, etc
Application: To verify the protective performance of the enclosure for
electronic and electrical products, automobiles, motorcycle parts,
household appliances, seals and lamps under water dripping at
degree IPX1 and IPX2.
Principle: Ensure that the dripping speed reaches the standard required value
by controlling the water supply flow, the test equipment can
produce a uniform flow of water drops over the whole area of the
enclosure.
Use Environment: Power supply: AC380V±5%/50Hz, 3KVA, or match client’s local power
supply requirements.
Use place: temperature 15-35 ° C, relative humidity 25%-75%,
atmospheric pressure 86 ~ 106kpa (860 mbar -1060 mbar), there
should be equipped with lighting and waterproof leakage switch (or
socket), the ground needs to be flat, and the water intake and
drainage function should be good.
Water source: clean water or tap water without impurities, equipped
with water cleaning filter.
