Ingress Protection Testing Laboratory
At EL ENERGY, we are dedicated to excellence in Ingress Protection (IP) testing through our advanced
laboratory, meticulously designed to assess products in strict accordance with a comprehensive range of
national and international standards. Our facility is equipped with state-of-the-art instrumentation and
staffed by expert engineers and technicians committed to upholding the highest levels of accuracy, reliability,
and compliance in IP testing.
Ingress Protection 1X
The Access Test Probe IP 1X equipment is designed to comply with testing specifications outlined in standards such as IEC 60529. It includes probes for testing ingress protection against solid objects and water. The equipment features probes of varying diameters and lengths to simulate different environmental conditions. These probes ensure thorough evaluation of a product's resistance to dust and water ingress, validating its durability and performance under specified test conditions.

It includes probes for testing ingress protection against solid objects and water. The equipment features probes of varying diameters and lengths to simulate different environmental conditions. These probes ensure thorough evaluation of a product's resistance to dust and water ingress, validating its durability and performance under specified test conditions.
Ingress Protection 4X
The Access Test Probe IP 4X equipment is designed to comply with testing specifications outlined in standards such as IEC 60529. It includes probes for testing ingress protection against solid objects and water. The equipment features probes of varying diameters and lengths to simulate different environmental conditions. These probes ensure thorough evaluation of a product's resistance to dust and water ingress, validating its durability and performance under specified test conditions.
Ingress Protection 5X, 6X
The dust chamber uses a blower to circulate talcum powder in suspension, simulating conditions specified in IS/IEC 60529 for testing IP5X and IP6X rated electronic devices. A viewing window with a wiper allows monitoring of specimen conditions inside the chamber.
Ingress Protection X1,X2
According to IS/IEC 60529 with the latest amendments, the drip box verifies the protection level against vertically falling water for IPX1 and at a 15° angle (achieved by tilting the turntable). Electronic devices resistant to dripping water (IPX1) are exposed to artificial rainfall at 3mm/min for 10 minutes, falling from a height of 200 mm above the device. No harmful effects from vertically dripping water should occur when the enclosure is tilted up to 15° from its normal position.
Ingress Protection X3,X4
The oscillating tube, with a maximum radius of 800 mm and 52 nozzles spaced 50 mm apart, performs IPX3 and IPX4 tests as per IS/IEC 60529 with the latest amendments. It oscillates vertically across the test sample for IPX3 (120° total) and IPX4 (almost 360°), with oscillation times of 4 seconds and 12 seconds respectively. The equipment allows for blocking nozzle holes as needed for conducting both tests.
Ingress Protection X5,X6
The equipment is suitable for testing jet-proof luminaires (IPX5 & IPX6) to assess ingress of high-pressure water. It includes a rotating system with motor/pump, pressure control valves, pressure gauge, and two nozzles. The height-adjustable stand supports the nozzle assembly for precise positioning during testing.
