Water Immersion Test Chamber – IEC60529 IPX8 Pressure Immersion Test Equipment

IEC60529 IPX8 Ingress Protection Test Equipment For Pressure Immersion

The Water Immersion Test Chamber is a professional IPX8 waterproof test equipment manufactured by KingPo. It is specifically engineered to simulate continuous submersion under pressure up to 30 m depth (0–0.3 MPa) for rigorous verification of the highest level of ingress protection required by IEC60529.

This chamber is widely used for testing automotive components, electrical enclosures, diving equipment, outdoor lighting, communication devices and other products that must reliably operate underwater or in extreme wet environments. With a robust φ500 × H500 mm cylindrical chamber made of 3 mm SUS304 stainless steel and a 20 mm thick tempered glass flange cover for clear visual observation, the system allows operators to monitor the test in real time while maintaining the highest safety standards.

The advanced PLC control system with color touchscreen provides intuitive programming of pressure, test duration (0–999 min) and automatic pressure relief at the end of each cycle. A safety valve automatically releases pressure at 0.35 MPa to protect operators and equipment. The high-precision pressure sensor and programmable timer ensure full compliance with IEC60529 IPX8, IEC60884-1, IEC60335-1 and IEC60598-1 standards, delivering consistent, repeatable and traceable results that manufacturers can rely on for product development, certification and quality control.
