LIB's IPX5 IPX6 and IPX9 liquid penetration testing equipment integrates a testing chamber with a rotating platform and automated spray system to simulate multiple water exposure conditions. Precision-machined nozzles ensure stable water flow and uniform spray coverage, exposing products to controlled water jets from different directions. The internal workspace of approximately 1000 × 1200 × 1000 mm provides sufficient space for testing electronics, automotive components, sensors, lighting fixtures, and outdoor devices. A programmable PLC controller with a color touchscreen allows easy adjustment of parameters such as water pressure, temperature, and test duration while displaying real-time data. Constructed with corrosion-resistant SUS304 stainless steel and equipped with a rotating test platform, the system ensures uniform spray coverage and long-term durability. The intelligent control system enables quick switching between IPX5, IPX6, and IPX9K test modes, providing efficient, accurate, and repeatable waterproof testing for product development and quality verification.
Advantages
1. Integrated 3-in-1 Waterproof Testing System: The equipment combines IPX5, IPX6, and IPX9K testing capabilities within one chamber. Laboratories no longer need separate machines for different waterproof levels, which saves installation space and reduces equipment costs. The integrated system also allows test sequences to be performed consecutively without moving the sample.
2. High-Pressure and High-Temperature Simulation: The IPX9K system uses an industrial high-pressure pump capable of generating pressures up to 8000–10000 kPa while heating water to approximately 80–88 °C. This accurately simulates extreme environments such as industrial cleaning systems, automotive wash-down processes, and high-temperature water exposure.
3. Precise Flow and Spray Control: Each nozzle is manufactured to strict dimensional tolerances. The IPX5 nozzle uses a 6.3 mm diameter with a flow rate of approximately 12.5 L/min, while the IPX6 nozzle uses a 12.5 mm diameter with a flow rate around 100 L/min. The IPX9K system provides controlled high-pressure spray at multiple angles including 0°, 30°, 60°, and 90°.
4. Intelligent Control and Automatic Switching: A programmable PLC controller automatically regulates pump pressure, water flow, and spray cycles according to selected test modes. Operators can easily switch between IPX5, IPX6, and IPX9K testing without manual reconfiguration, reducing setup time and human error.
5. Uniform Multi-Angle Exposure: The motor-driven rotating platform provides continuous 360° rotation with adjustable speed. Combined with multi-angle spray nozzles, this ensures every surface of the test sample receives consistent water exposure during testing.
6. Durable Construction and Safety Protection: The chamber interior is manufactured from SUS304 stainless steel for excellent corrosion resistance. Multiple safety systems—including over-temperature protection, water shortage protection, electrical leakage protection, and over-current protection—ensure stable and safe operation during high-pressure testing.

Typical Tests Performed by the IPX5 IPX6 and IPX9 Liquid Penetration Testing Equipment
This waterproof test chamber can simulate a wide range of real environmental conditions. For example, IPX5 testing exposes products to water jets at approximately 12.5 L/min to simulate heavy rain or splashing water. IPX6 testing uses a stronger 100 L/min jet to represent powerful water spray or marine environments. IPX9K testing recreates extreme conditions with high-pressure hot water up to about 80–88 °C and pressures reaching 10000 kPa, similar to industrial high-pressure cleaning systems. During testing, the turntable typically rotates around 5 r/min while water sprays from multiple angles, ensuring complete coverage. These controlled conditions allow engineers to evaluate sealing performance, identify potential leakage points, and verify product durability before certification or market release.
