About Ingress Protection (IP) Testing Services

IP ratings, also known as ingress protection ratings, are set by the International Electrotechnical Commission and let you know how well a product can withstand ingress from water or solids. The IP67 rating is the standard level expected for consumer electronics, which are expected to be able to deal with the kind of spills and dusty environments everyday life throws at us. From a takeaway coffee that drips on a smart phone to home speakers set up in a kitchen or lounge, there are many threats to our tech. IP67 testing is the best way to know whether your products will meet the demands placed on them. For more detail on what the various IP ratings stand for, check out our handy IP ratings chart. Or find out more about where and when testing can be useful in our complete guide to IP testing. Our innovative and effective approach to IP67 testing. The traditional IP67 testing methods are costly, time consuming and destructive. They center around placing the products in water and using methods like measuring the escaping bubbles or the amount of damage done to the products internals to work out whether there are defects or leaks. Our equivalent IP67 testing solution works by creating a closed space (the chamber) around the device before pressure is applied. This creates a pressure differential across the non porous product walls and seals. Once stabilized, we can measure air movement from the higher pressure (inside the chamber space) to the lower pressure (in the test part), allowing us to see if there is a leak path without the need to destroy the device in the process. Our process can be used to test to very high levels of sensitivity, by adjusting the size of the void volume in the testing chamber. The smaller the void volume, the more sensitive the leak test. The test chamber can be configured to closely approximate the size and shape of the electronics and devices being tested, letting you minimize the void volume while maximizing sensitivity. So not only will you be able to get repeatable test results, the test is capable of identifying even micro leaks. Benefits of our air leak ingress testing, As well as satisfying IP67 standards, our air leak testing is, Non destructive. Meaning the device can be repaired or reworked after testing, Is efficient. Air has a much lower density and viscosity than water, so it can penetrate leak paths up to 25 times faster, Is fast. In fact, testing time is reduced to seconds per unit using high resolution instruments, Is flexible. The test systems can be arranged to allow multiple part testing configurations. The IP67 air leak testing solutions for your business. As part of the Industrial Physics family, we are delighted to offer two TME testing products that are ideal for our IP67 equivalent air leak testing solution. CDG devices offer subtle differences and benefits for your business that we will happily talk you through. Ready to hear more? Get in touch with one of our experts.

FAQ's of Ingress Protection (IP) Testing Services:

Q: How is the IP testing process conducted according to standards?

A: Our IP testing uses visual inspections, functional tests, and ingress test methods in accordance with IEC 60529, IS/IEC 60529, and NEMA standards. Specialized equipment, such as dust chambers and water spray devices, are employed to simulate real-world ingress scenarios. Results determine the appropriate IP rating for your product's enclosure.

Q: What is the typical duration required for IP testing services?

A: Testing generally takes one to two weeks, depending on the sample type and the complexity of client requirements. Shorter or longer durations may be arranged for highly customized testing protocols or larger sample sizes.

Q: Can the IP testing be customized or performed on-site as per my project's needs?

A: Yes, our services are highly flexible. We offer testing as per client specifications and can provide on-site testing upon request to suit specialized applications or unique project environments.

Q: What types of products and industries benefit from IP testing services?
