HANDHELD SPRAY NOZZLE IPX3 IPX4The Handheld Spray Nozzle IPX3 IPX4 verifies the waterproof status of the product’s enclosures of larger sizes when a portable tester is necessary. INNOVATION Dunel research department brings to the market the lightest hand-held spray nozzle, built with a resistant material. Furthermore, it presents an ergonomic design that provides easiness during the performance of the tests in Lab. All these innovations maintain the accuracy required by the International Norms. The test
IEC 60529 Drip Box IPX1 IPX2 - TipsFOUR POINTS YOU NEED TO CONSIDER: IEC 60529 Drip Box IPX1 IPX2 - Tips Guarantee that when cleaning the nozzles they do not lose dimensionally. The one’s plastic made, nozzles molded together with manifold, can have sizes modified due to cleaning process and change of environmental temperature IPX1 BEST PERFORMANCE That the manifold can support high water pressure over 5 bar. Plastic made in some cases do not support. That the manifold does not crack after some time of use. Pl
Electric Tracking SurfaceTracking Surface is the propagation of an electrically conductive path along the surface of an electrical insulator due to the breakdown of the insulation material. The tracking test simulates the electrical propagation over the surface under test. It is commonly used to verify the resistance of the insulation materials. Tracking develops from surface discharge activity associated with the flow of leakage current, especially under wet or contaminated conditions. Arcs created

CHECKING THE PROTECTION AGAINST WATER WITH OSCILLATING TUBES DNOT SERIESOscillating tubes DNOT Series with spray nozzles of 0,4mm bore are used to prove the degrees of protection IPX3 &IPX4 – Protection Against Spraying Water” & “Protection Against Splashing Water”. The protection against spraying water is determined by causing the oscillating tube to oscillate over the specimen through an angle of 60° Degrees on either side of the vertical, each at a speed of about of 60° per second, while the jets, coming from a larger angle than 60° to the v
