What is a rain test chamber? It is an instrument that simulates the natural rain weather environment through dripping plates, swing pipes, spray guns and other components to test the product shell for dripping, rain, splashing, and spraying.
At present, many electronic products, such as digital products, auto parts, outdoor lamps, sensors, connectors, household appliances, etc., need to use rain test chambers to test their waterproof performance.
However, the appearance and waterproof level of each product are different. How to choose a rain test chamber correctly? This requires the editor to explain it in detail.
First, we need to determine the waterproof level requirements of the tested product. According to the "GB4208-2017 Shell Protection Level IP Code", the waterproof level can be divided into IPX1-IPX9K, a total of nine waterproof levels. If the product needs to be tested for dripping, use the IPX12 rain test chamber. If the product needs to be tested for rain, use the IPX34 rain test chamber.
Secondly, we need to choose a suitable rain test box based on the appearance of the product. For example, a swing pipe is used in the rain test box to test the rain and splash resistance. The specifications of the swing pipe are formulated according to the national standard requirements and can be divided into R200, R400, R600, R800, R1000, R1200, R1400, and R1600. The national standard stipulates that the distance between the swing pipe and the surface of the product shell is 200mm. If the product is 350mm, then you need to choose an R400 swing pipe for testing.
Finally, you need to choose according to the company's placement of the rain test box, because the rain test box can be divided into box type and open type. If the company chooses an open rain test box, then before the equipment is settled in, the floor and walls in the laboratory need to be waterproofed, and the electrical appliances in the laboratory need to be replaced with waterproof ones.
Yuexin-focuses on the research and development and production of rain test boxes, and looks forward to every communication with you.
