Industrial Testing Equipment
Top Test IPX1-IPX6 Combined Waterproof Test Chamber | Rain Spray Test Equipment
To evaluate how various electrical and electronic products (including lamps, electrical cabinets, electrical components, etc.) perform under conditions such as dripping, splashing, washing, and immersion, these products are placed in waterproof test equipment (classified by enclosure protection degree) for simulation testing in accordance with international standards such as IEC60529 and IEC60598. This equipment is designed and produced strictly in compliance with IEC60529 and IEC60598, and can perform a variety of simulation tests—helping engineers answer critical questions such as how to test IPX4 waterproof for LED drivers, what is the difference between IPX4 and IPX6 testing, and which IP rating their product requires.
Precision IPX1 to IPX6 Testing: Top Test All-in-One Water Ingress Chamber
IEC60529 & GB/T 4208 Compliant | 7" Touch Screen + Panasonic PLC | R400 Oscillating Tube | IPX5/IPX6 Dual Nozzle System
1. Product Introduction
For manufacturers of LED lighting, automotive electronics, and outdoor enclosures, passing waterproof certification on the first attempt is critical to avoiding redesign costs and launch delays.The Top Test IPX1-IPX6 Water Spray Test Chamber is a fully integrated waterproof testing solution engineered for laboratories and quality assurance teams. Unlike piecemeal solutions, this single system covers vertical dripping (IPX1/2), oscillating spray (IPX3/4), and high-pressure water jetting (IPX5/6) in one compact footprint.Built with a Panasonic PLC + 7-inch touch screen, SUS304 stainless steel interior, and precision nozzles, this chamber ensures your products meet IEC60529, GB7000.1, and ISO 20653 standards before mass production.Top Test: From drip to jet — one system, full compliance.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is the difference between IPX4 and IPX6 testing?
A1: IPX4 (Oscillating Tube): Simulates splashing water from all directions – suitable for bathroom electronics and kitchen appliances. IPX6 (Powerful Water Jet): Simulates heavy seas or fire hose conditions – suitable for outdoor vehicles and marine equipment.
Q2: Can I test IPX7 immersion in the same chamber?
A2: This system covers IPX1 through IPX6 testing. Top Test also offers IPX7/IPX8 Immersion Tanks and IPX9K High-Pressure High-Temperature Jet Chambers to help you build a complete IP testing laboratory.
Q3: How do I maintain the IPX5/IPX6 nozzles?
A3: The system includes a water purification unit to prevent scale buildup. We recommend cleaning the φ0.4mm drip holes and spray nozzles monthly with compressed air.
Q4: What is the load capacity of the turntable?
A4: The standard turntable is designed for a load capacity of 50 kg. For heavier samples (e.g., large outdoor enclosures, automotive components), Top Test offers customized high-load turntable solutions.
