IP6K6K
IP 6K Protection Rating according to ISO 20653
The IP6K protection rating summarizes the level of protection of equipment to ensure no dust deposits inside the enclosure.
IP6K Protection Rating: Dust Tight
The enclosure under test is placed inside the dust test chamber where the internal pressure is maintained below atmospheric pressure using a vacuum pump.
The suction connection is attached to a hole specifically made for this test. Unless otherwise specified in the relevant product standard, this hole should be near vulnerable parts. If it is not possible to make a specific hole, the suction connection should be attached to the cable entry hole. In the case of multiple holes (e.g., various cable entry holes or drainage holes), these are used as for ordinary use.
The test aims to draw into the enclosure, by means of an appropriate depression, an amount of air equal to 80 times the volume of the enclosure, without exceeding an extraction rate of 60 volumes per hour. In no case should the depression exceed 2 kPa (20 mbar) measured on the manometer.
If an extraction rate of 40 to 60 volumes per hour is achieved, the test duration is 2 hours. If, with a maximum depression of 2 kPa (20 mbar), the extraction rate is less than 40 volumes per hour, the test continues until 80 volumes of air have been drawn through, or 8 hours have elapsed.
We perform on-site testing on samples of any size, with a specially installed test chamber around the object to be tested.
IP X6K Protection Rating according to ISO 20653
The IPX6K protection degree describes the level of protection for equipment against high-pressure water jets, according to ISO 20653.
Test Purpose
Ensure that the enclosure protects internal equipment from high-pressure water jets from all directions.
Test Procedure
The enclosure is subjected to high-pressure water jets from a specific nozzle.
The distance between the nozzle and the enclosure is 2.5-3 meters.
The water flow rate is 75 liters per minute, with a pressure of approximately 1000 kPa.
The test duration is at least 3 minutes for each direction.
Expected Result
After the test, the enclosure should be inspected to ensure that the water has not caused any damage or interference with the device's operation.
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.
