FAQ – IEC 60529 IPX3 IPX4 Hand Held Spray Nozzle
What is the difference between IPX3 and IPX4 testing?
IPX3 evaluates protection against water sprayed at angles up to 60° from vertical, while IPX4 verifies resistance to water splashing from all directions.
Is this nozzle compliant with IEC 60529?
Yes. The nozzle structure, spray pattern, pressure control, and test operation are designed according to IEC 60529 requirements for IPX3 and IPX4 testing.
Can the water pressure be adjusted during the test?
Yes. The manual ball valve and pressure gauge allow precise pressure adjustment within the full 0–250 kPa range. For standard testing, the recommended operating pressure is 50–150 kPa, which ensures stable flow and accurate compliance with IEC 60529 IPX3 and IPX4 requirements.
Is flow monitoring available?
An optional electronic flow meter can be installed to monitor water flow in real time.
Where is this nozzle typically used?
It is commonly used in test laboratories, certification facilities, and manufacturing quality control departments.
Can this nozzle be customized?
Yes. Customization is available based on specific test requirements.
In addition to this standard model, upgraded solutions are also available, including a full brass hand-held IPX3/IPX4 spray nozzle and a complete IPX3/IPX4 waterproof test chamber for automated testing.
