IP2X
Degree of Protection IP 20 rates the degree of protection provided against the intrusion of solids larger than 12 mm Ø (ie. body parts such as fingers). The protection is satisfactory if adequate clearance is kept between the access probe and hazardous parts.
Access to hazardous parts For this test is used the "Jointed Test Finger" which may penetrate to its 80 mm length, but the stop face (Ø 50 ×20 mm) shall not pass through the opening. Starting from the straight position, both joints of the test finger shall be successively bent through an angle of up to 90° with respect to the axis of the adjoining section of the finger and shall be placed in every possible position.
Solid foreign objects For this test is used a "Sphere" of 12,5 mm Ø shall not fully penetrate.
IPX9K
Degree of Protection IPX9K: Resistance to High-Pressure and High-Temperature Water Jets
In summary, the test consists of spraying high-pressure and high-temperature water against the enclosure from any direction without causing harmful effects from a standard test nozzle.
The IPX9K grade ensures that the equipment can withstand high-pressure and high-temperature water jets.
During the test, the enclosure is subjected to water jets from all directions, with a pressure of approximately 8000-10000 kPa and a water temperature of 80°C ± 5°C.
The test lasts 30 seconds for each position (0°, 30°, 60°, 90°) with a distance between the nozzle and the enclosure of 100-150 mm.
At the end of the test, the enclosure is inspected to verify that the water has not caused damage or interference with the device's operation.
For small enclosures (largest dimension less than 250 mm):
The enclosure shall be mounted on the test device.
Turntable speed: 5 r/min ± 1 r/min.
Spray positions: 0°, 30°, 60°, 90°.
Test duration: 30 seconds per position.
For large enclosures (largest dimension greater than or equal to 250 mm):
The enclosure shall be mounted as per intended use.
The entire exposed surface area of the enclosure shall be subjected to the spray at some point during the test procedure.
Spray positions: the enclosure shall be sprayed from all practical directions, covering the entire surface area and, as far as possible, spraying perpendicularly to the sprayed surfaces.
Distance between the nozzle and the sample under test: 175 ± 25 mm.
Test duration: 1 minute per square meter of the calculated surface area of the enclosure (excluding any mounting surfaces), with a minimum duration of 3 minutes.
We are leaders in IP certification for products of any size. For heavy infrastructure and large non-transportable systems, we perform On-Site IP testing at your facility.
Emctest Technologies is Italy's reference laboratory for Ingress Protection (IP) testing to IEC EN 60529, ISO 20653 and CEI EN 60034-5. We certify every IP rating defined by the applicable standards, from IP00 to IP69K and IPX9K, on products of any size, weight and complexity: from miniaturised electronic components to large industrial machinery, electrical panels, road vehicles and permanently installed systems. No product is too large, too heavy or too complex: when a sample cannot be transported to our laboratory in Rimini, our team travels directly On-Site to the customer's facility, anywhere in Italy and worldwide.
