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.
