The interior surfaces are treated with an anti-static coating to prevent any electrostatic discharge that could potentially damage sensitive electronic components. The chamber is hermetically sealed using high-quality gaskets and advanced sealing technologies, ensuring a leak-free environment during testing. The door is equipped with a reliable locking mechanism and a transparent, pressure-resistant viewing window, allowing operators to closely monitor the test process without compromising the integrity of the chamber.
• Precision High Pressure Spray System
  • The heart of the chamber lies in its advanced high pressure spray system. It can generate water pressure ranging from 2 bars to 150 bars, with an accuracy of ±0.5 bar. The system features adjustable spray nozzles that can produce a variety of spray patterns, including a fine mist for simulating light rain or condensation, a focused jet for replicating high-pressure water jets like those from a power washer, and a wide-angle spray to cover a larger surface area. The spray nozzles are strategically positioned within the chamber to ensure uniform water distribution and comprehensive coverage of the test samples. The water pump is highly efficient and capable of maintaining a consistent water flow rate, even at maximum pressure.
• Accurate Temperature and Humidity Control
  • In addition to water pressure, the chamber offers precise control over temperature and humidity. The temperature can be adjusted within a range of 0°C to 50°C, with an accuracy of ±0.3°C. The humidity control range extends from 20% to 90% relative humidity, with an accuracy of ±2% RH. Temperature and humidity play significant roles in the waterproof performance of electronic products, as they can affect the integrity of seals, the conductivity of materials, and the overall durability. The chamber's control system ensures that these environmental factors are maintained at the desired levels, providing a more realistic simulation of real-world conditions.
• Intuitive Control Panel and Data Acquisition Interface
  • The equipment is equipped with an intuitive control panel that simplifies the operation and parameter setting. Operators can easily adjust the water pressure, spray pattern, temperature, humidity, and test duration using the user-friendly interface. The control panel also provides real-time displays of the current test conditions, as well as any alarms or warnings. The chamber is integrated with a comprehensive data acquisition system. It records all relevant test data, such as water pressure profiles, temperature and humidity histories, and any changes in the electrical or physical properties of the test samples. The data can be stored in a built-in memory or exported to external storage devices for further analysis. The system can also generate detailed test reports in various formats, facilitating easy documentation and sharing of results.
• Versatile Sample Fixturing and Connectivity Options
  • The interior of the chamber is designed to accommodate a wide variety of electronic sample sizes and shapes. It can be equipped with adjustable racks, trays, and custom-made holders to ensure proper positioning and exposure of the test samples. The sample fixturing is made of non-conductive and non-corrosive materials to prevent any interference with the electronic components. Additionally, the chamber is equipped with cable ports and connectors, allowing for the connection of external monitoring and testing equipment, such as multimeters, oscilloscopes, and data loggers. This enables real-time monitoring of the electronic samples during the test, providing valuable insights into their performance and any potential issues.

3. Specific Parameters

• Maximum Water Pressure and Accuracy
  • As mentioned, the chamber can reach a maximum water pressure of 150 bars, with an accuracy of ±0.5 bar. This high-pressure range is essential for testing the waterproof capabilities of electronic products that may be exposed to extreme water forces, such as underwater cameras or industrial sensors. The accurate control of water pressure ensures that the test results are reliable and reproducible, allowing manufacturers to make informed decisions about product design and waterproofing measures.
• Temperature and Humidity Range and Accuracy
  • The temperature range of 0°C to 50°C, with an accuracy of ±0.3°C, and the humidity range of 20% to 90% RH, with an accuracy of ±2% RH, provide a comprehensive assessment of the effect of environmental conditions on electronic waterproofing. For example, a smartphone may experience different temperature and humidity levels during its usage, and this chamber can accurately replicate such conditions to evaluate its performance.
• Spray Pattern Options and Coverage
  • The spray nozzle offers multiple spray pattern options, with a fine mist having a droplet size ranging from 30 microns to 150 microns, a focused jet with a diameter of 0.5 mm to 5 mm, and a wide-angle spray covering an area of up to 270 degrees. The coverage of the spray is carefully designed to ensure that all parts of the test sample receive an equal amount of water exposure. This flexibility in spray patterns allows for the testing of products under different types of water ingress scenarios, such as a gentle spray from a sprinkler system or a direct high-pressure jet from a hose.
• Testing Volume and Payload Capacity
  • The chamber offers a customizable testing volume, with options ranging from 0.3 m³ to 5 m³. The payload capacity can be adjusted according to the size and weight of the test samples, with a maximum capacity of up to 500 kg. This allows for the testing of a significant number of samples or larger and heavier electronic assemblies, such as server racks or industrial control panels. For example, a batch of small wearable devices can be tested simultaneously in a smaller chamber, while a large server cabinet can be accommodated in a larger one.
• Data Sampling Frequency and Resolution
  • The data acquisition system samples data at a frequency of up to 200 Hz, providing a highly detailed record of the water pressure, temperature, humidity, and spray pattern changes. The resolution of the water pressure data is 0.05 bar, the temperature data is 0.1°C, the humidity data is 0.1% RH, and the spray pattern data includes precise measurements of droplet size and spray angle. This high-resolution data is invaluable for identifying even the slightest trends and potential failure points, allowing for a more accurate assessment of product waterproofing performance.
