To big lights, DYCOMETAL,
has developed a special equipment to do the rain test
The equipment is
manufactured by a drip box (IPX1 and IPX2), two rain arcs and showers (IPX3 and
IPX4). We have provided also the use of the circuits for 5 and 6 degree test.
The control of the systems
comes commanded by a powerful microprocessor, which regulate wáter spray time,
the measure of the wáter flow in l/min, and electrical feed to the sample by
the connection box in the rotating plate.
DYCOMETAL, company with over 25 years experience in developing
simulation chambers for environmental testing, offers customers Rain test Chambers to carry out such tests.
