IEC 60529 IPX3 IPX4 Rain Test Chamber for Electronics and Automotive

Product Specification

IEC 60529 IPX3 IPX4 Rain Test Chamber 

Product Introduction

This product is suitable for testing electrical products, enclosures, and seals to ensure the proper performance of equipment and components in rainy conditions. Its scientific design enables it to realistically simulate various water spray, splashing, and spraying environments, testing the physical and other related properties of the product.
It is widely used for testing the physical and other related properties of electronic and electrical products, lamps, electrical cabinets, electrical components, automobiles, coaches, buses, motorcycles, and their parts under simulated rainy conditions. After testing, verification is used to determine whether the product's performance meets the requirements, facilitating product design, improvement, verification, and factory inspection.

Working environment

1. Operating voltage: AC220V single-phase three-wire, 50Hz. Power: Approximately 3kW. A separate 32A air switch must be installed. The air switch must have wiring terminals. The power cord must be ≥ 4 square meters. 2. Water Inlet and Drain Pipes: After planning the equipment placement, please install the circuit breaker next to it in advance. Install the water inlet and drain pipes below the circuit breaker. The water inlet pipe (a four-branch pipe with a valve) and the drain pipe (a four-branch pipe) should be flush with the floor.
3. Ambient Temperature: 15°C to 35°C;
4. Relative Humidity: 25% to 75% RH;
5. Atmospheric Pressure: 86kPa to 106kPa.
