IPX7 IPX8 Water Immersion Test Chamber GT-F65

IPX7 & IPX8 Water Immersion Test Chamber GT-F65

Application:

This test is applicable to electrical and electronic products that are waterproof and may be exposed to water immersion during transportation or use. The specimen is immersed in a water tank to a specified depth and subjected to a defined pressure. After the test, the ingress of water is inspected, and any changes in performance are evaluated.

1. Wide Test Capacity Range: Offered in four standard tank configurations  spanning 400L to 1000L volumes.

2. 30m Depth & Pressure Simulation: Accurately controls simulated water depth from 0 to 30 m (Atmospheric to 300 kPa) with digital time settings up to 99 min 99 s.

3. Industrial Build & Safety Interlocks: Features 304 stainless steel construction, dual pressure-relief and drainage safety protection systems, and a manual stainless steel lifting basket (10 kg load capacity).

4. Precision Control & Components: Powered by an MCGS touchscreen panel with CHINT electrical components and SANS pneumatic pressure valves.

Q1: How does the GT-F65 perform IPX7 and IPX8 tests under these standards?

A: For IPX7 testing (per GB/T 4208), the system controls immersion depth up to 1 meter for 30 minutes with precise timing and level controls. For IPX8 testing, the sealed vessel uses pneumatic pressurization (up to 0.5 MPa or custom parameters) to simulate continuous deep-water pressure conditions agreed upon by manufacturers and testers.

Q2: Can this chamber be used for testing automotive lamps and low-voltage electrical enclosures?

A: Yes. The GT-F65 specifically addresses GB/T 10485 for automotive lighting and components, as well as GB/T 4942.1 and GB/T 4942.2 for motor enclosures and low-voltage electrical cabinets.

Q3: What safety mechanisms are installed to handle high-pressure operation?

A: The GT-F65 includes dedicated pressure-relief safety protection, automated drainage pressure-relief systems, and electrical leakage protection. The chamber vessel is fabricated from 3 mm thick 304 stainless steel to ensure structural resilience under pressurized testing conditions.

Q4: What water quality is recommended for operating the GT-F65, and how is water drained?

A: Pure water or distilled water is recommended to prevent mineral scaling and corrosion inside the 304 stainless steel tank. The equipment features an automated pneumatic pressure-assisted drainage valve that rapidly discharges water after testing, reducing downtime between testing cycles.
