IEC60529 IPX3/4 Oscillation Tube Tester Lab Instruments
1. Application:
For checking the protection against water with spray nozzle of 0, 4 mm bore are used to prove the degrees of protection for the second characteristic numerals 3 and 4 "Protection against Spraying Water" resp. "Protection against splashing Water".
A complete test unit comprises a set of oscillating tubes as accessories, the oscillating appliance with the drive and-in the case of larger oscillating tubes-the opposite bearing. The oscillating tubes are manufactured with orifice radii of 200 mm to 1600 mm with a progressive ratio of 200 mm.
According to IEC60529 figure 4, IEC60598 clause 9.2.5, IEC60947.
2. Standard Outfit:
1 oscillating appliance, with flanged shaft to screw on the oscillating tubes, height above floor 1400 mm, on request with a second flanged shaft as shown on figure,
1 drive by 750W servo motor, oscillating speed 60° /s, with frequency converter, swiveling angle sensor, swiveling angle limiting safety switch, electromagnetic brake, brake release switch, emergency stopping switch and watertight socket to connect a turntable,
