A rain test chamber simulates natural rain and climatic conditions to conduct waterproofing tests based on IP protection ratings. It can simulate various types of waterproof tests such as immersion, drip, and spray tests.
As there are many types of rain test chambers with different protection levels, how do users select the right model? The following analysis will help with this decision.
Rain test chambers can significantly affect product aging, color fading, and metal corrosion. As a result, aging tests are increasingly important in industries like rubber, plastics, chemicals, automotive, and textiles. Climatic factors, such as temperature, humidity, and rainfall, play a major role. A rain test chamber is designed to simulate a rain environment, assessing whether electrical products, their enclosures, and seals can ensure good performance under rainy conditions. The product is scientifically designed to simulate realistic water spray conditions. Using digital and variable frequency control technology, parameters such as rainfall, the rotation angle of the sample rack, the swing angle of the spray rod, and the swing frequency of the spray pipe can all be automatically adjusted.
1、Product Size: First, determine the size of your product or the smallest sample. The size of the waterproof testing chamber should be chosen based on the dimensions of your product.
2、Waterproof Test Level: Next, determine the required waterproof test level for your product. If a level-based test is not necessary, the equipment may differ depending on the requirement.
3、Consultation with Manufacturers: After identifying the required level, consult the manufacturer. Inform them of the product’s dimensions and testing level. For instance, the IPX34 oscillating rain test chamber uses an open-box and shower-type rain device, and the oscillating arm comes in various sizes. The largest oscillating arm is R1600, which is suitable for open testing of large samples. All waterproof testing equipment can be customized according to users' specific testing requirements, including size and specifications.
4、Technical Specifications: If specific technical parameters are required for the rain test chamber, notify the manufacturer to ensure the specifications are correct. This will prevent issues where the instrument cannot be modified after production.
Xi'an LIB Environmental Simulation Industry concentrates on providing the turn-key solution for environmental testing, that research, design, producing, commissioning, delivery, install and training, provide the whole products and service according to customer's requirements.
