Oscillation Tube Tester
Introduction
The IPX3-4 Oscillating Spray Tester meets the requirements of IEC 60529 and other major standards. A touch screen controller is used to establish the test and control oscillation range, speed, and time of test. The controller and other operating components are enclosed in a stainless steel cabinet.
Numerous tubes are available to meet differing specimen sizes. These tubes are made of stainless steel and come with nozzles that can be shut off. This allows the same tube to be used for IPX3 and IPX4 with a simple adjustment to some of the nozzles.
The tubes oscillate to almost 180 degree either side of vertical. The degree of oscillation can be set on the touch screen controller or one of the three pre-set values, 60 degree, 90 degree, or almost 180 degree, can be selected.
A specimen support is also included. It is supplied with two specimen bases – one perforated for IPX4 and one non-perforated for IPX3. The support is made from stainless steel and mounted on wheels for easy maneuverability and adjustment. It offers height adjustments that range from 855mm to 1300mm.
Applications:
The oscillating spray tester is one of several methods used to test the water protection capabilities of enclosures for electronic items that are expected to be exposed to rain or water spray. This tester is used to meet the requirements of IPX3 and IPX4 in IEC 60529. In the test described in IPX3 and IPX4 with an oscillating tube, the specimen is placed in the center point of the semicircle defined by the oscillating tube. It is then subjected to a spray of water at a defined pressure to test for leakage. The oscillating tube will have spray holes over 90 degree of the tube for IPX3 and over the full 180 degree for IPX4. In IPX3 the tube will oscillate to 60 degree either side of the vertical. For IPX4 the tube travels through an angle of almost 360 degree. The specimen needs to be placed within 200mm of the tube. For this reason different size tubes are needed to test different size specimens.
The place requires: 3.5m height of center, 3.3mX5m space area, with good drainage.
