A stainless-steel, leakproof test solution designed in compliance with IP waterproofing standards, featuring adjustable flow rates and an integrated rotary table.
Chamber: 995 × 995 × 1495 mm,Distance Tube: 404×2500×1340 mm,Rotary table: 24 rpm (0.18 kW),Pump power: 1.1 kW / 0–120 L/min,IPX5: 12.5 L/min water flow,IPX6: 100 L/min water flow,Stainless-steel, fully sealed construction,Manual height adjustment and flow control

The IPX5 and IPX6 tests are performed to determine the waterproofing level of a product.
Products must be tested according to the requirements of the relevant IPX5 and IPX6 test levels.

The test sample is placed inside a chamber equipped with a rotary table.
During testing, the water spray angle is set to 360°, and the exposure time is 3 minutes.
