IPX3 & IPX4 Spray / Splash Water Test Apparatus with Touch Screen - Floor Standing
Spray & Splash Water Ingress Protection Testing System
Sensotech Instruments Inc. manufactures a highly advanced IPX3 & IPX4 Spray / Splash Water Test Apparatus designed for evaluating the protection performance of electrical and electronic enclosures against spraying and splashing water conditions according to IEC 60529 ingress protection testing standards. The system is specially developed for conducting IPX3 spray water testing and IPX4 splash water testing to verify enclosure safety and waterproof performance under simulated environmental conditions. During the IPX3 test, the specimen is exposed to spraying water at angles up to 60° from vertical direction, simulating rainfall or light water spray conditions. In the IPX4 test, the specimen is subjected to water splashing from all directions, ensuring complete protection verification against splashed water exposure. The apparatus is designed as a floor-standing automatic testing unit equipped with PLC-based control and touch screen HMI operation for accurate, repeatable, and user-friendly testing performance. The equipment includes a precision oscillating tube system manufactured with uniformly distributed spray nozzles for consistent water flow and standardized testing conditions. A motorized rotating turntable is provided for uniform specimen exposure during testing, ensuring accurate multi-directional spray coverage. The apparatus features digital flow control, adjustable oscillation angle, programmable test duration, automatic water circulation, stainless steel construction, and precision pressure regulation systems for reliable and long-term operation. Advanced models are available with automatic oscillating tube movement, variable speed rotation, touch screen programming, water filtration systems, and automated test cycle control for enhanced testing efficiency and operational convenience. The IPX3 & IPX4 Spray / Splash Water Test Apparatus is widely used in electronics industries, automotive industries, lighting product manufacturing, appliance testing laboratories, electrical equipment testing, research centers, certification laboratories, and quality assurance departments for ingress protection verification and waterproof compliance testing.
IEC60529 Compliant Oscillating Tube and Nozzles
Constructed from high-quality stainless steel, the oscillating tube features a semi-circular design with precision-drilled holes directed toward the center. Each port is equipped with a threaded fitting, allowing easy manual installation of spray nozzles and plugs. During operation, water is ejected from the nozzles in a concentrated stream, providing direct impact on the specimen enclosure to ensure accurate ingress protection testing results.
To accommodate different sample sizes, the system offers oscillating tubes with multiple radii. The IPX3 oscillating tube sprays water over the sample at an angle up to 60° on either side of the vertical, while the IPX4 oscillating tube splashes water over the sample from all directions. All tests maintain a standardized spray distance between the specimen and the spray nozzles for accurate and repeatable testing performance. The chamber interior is equipped with integrated lighting and a built-in power socket for Test Under Load (TUL) applications.
Open-type IPX3 IPX4 Water Spray Tester
Open-Type vs. Box-Type Solutions
In addition to integrated box-type rain test chambers, Sensotech Instruments Inc. also offers open-type IPX3/IPX4 spraying and splashing test equipment for specialized testing applications. Standard box-type systems generally feature oscillating tube radii suitable for small and medium-sized products, while open-type configurations provide greater flexibility for large specimen testing.
Engineered for Large-Scale Specimens
The open-type design allows the oscillating tube radius to extend up to large dimensions, making it ideal for testing oversized products that cannot fit inside standard enclosed chambers. By removing the limitations of cabinet-type systems, the equipment becomes suitable for testing automotive parts, large electrical enclosures, outdoor equipment, industrial products, and customized applications. Open-type systems generally require a dedicated waterproof testing room or specialized drainage arrangement for efficient water runoff management during operation.
Customizable Configurations
We provide fully customizable specifications to meet various testing requirements. Oscillating tubes are available in multiple standard radii configurations for different specimen sizes and testing conditions. As the oscillating tube radius increases, the number of nozzle openings and total water flow rate are adjusted accordingly to ensure full compliance with international ingress protection testing standards.
IPX4 Spray Nozzle Testing
The IPX4 spray nozzle is designed for splash water testing from all directions as per IEC 60529 standards. It is used to evaluate enclosure protection against water splashes and external moisture exposure.
