In the field of industrial automation, we often encounter a wide variety of electrical devices and electronics thatIt needs to work in a variety of harsh environments, such as humid, dusty, and even water-soaked environments.In order to ensure that these devices can function properly, it is necessary toThe IP67 waterproof rating is an important means of evaluating their level of protection.
IP67 Protection RatingIt is an important level in the International Standard for Industrial Protection (Ingress Protection).It is mainly used to evaluate the protection of product shells against solid foreign objects and liquid penetration.The IP67 rating indicates that the product is protected in two ways:
- Dustproof: Dust protection level 6, indicating complete protection against dust penetration.
- Waterproof: Level 7 waterproofing indicates that the product will not be damaged when immersed in water under certain conditions.
IP67 waterproof rating test standard
The IP67 waterproof rating is tested according to the following standards:
- Chinese Standard GB/T 4208-2017Enclosure Protection Class (IP Code)
- International Standard IEC 60529:2013Enclosure Protection Levels (International Protection Level Codes)
II. Test methods
The IP67 waterproof rating test is typically performed under the following conditions:
- Place the product in a container with fresh water at a depth of at least 1 meter.
- Soak the product in water for 30 minutes.
- Remove the product and check for water penetration.
Test Result Determination:
A product is considered to have an IP67 waterproof rating if no water penetration occurs after immersion.

1. Preparation of the product to be tested
- Place the product in the tooling fixture and make sure the product surface is clean, dry, and not visibly damaged or broken.
- Inspect the product housing and interfaces to make sure there are no gaps or cracks.
2. Connection of electrical and gas circuits
- Connect the tester to the power supply and factory gas source, making sure the connections are secure and not loose.
- Check the air lines of the fixtures and instruments to make sure there are no air leaks.
3. Setting parameters
- Set test parameters such as pressure range, test time and leakage according to the requirements of the IP67 waterproof rating.
- Typical settings are 10 to 15 kPa (positive or negative pressure test) with a test time of 10 seconds to 1 minute (depending on the volume of the product).
- After setting the parameters, save the settings.
4. Commencement of testing
- Click the "Start" button on the tester and the instrument will automatically inflate to the set pressure.
- Hold this pressure for a certain period of time (e.g. 30 seconds) and the instrument will start to detect a drop in pressure.
- The system will display the test data and results in real time. If the product is well sealed, the pressure will remain stable and the instrument will display "Pass"; if the product has air leakage, the pressure will drop and the instrument will display "Fail" and sound an alarm.
5. Recording results
- The instrument automatically records test results, including product number, test time, results, pressure, leakage and other information.
- After the test is completed, the test data is saved. The data can be exported via USB flash disk or network for easy traceability.
6. Maintenance
After the test, the instrument is serviced:
- Clean instrument surfaces and fixtures to ensure that there are no residues.
- Check the air line connections to make sure they are not loose or damaged.
- Regular calibration of instruments to ensure testing accuracy.
- After the maintenance is completed, turn off the power of the instrument to ensure the long-term stable operation of the instrument.
Through the use of Precision EngineeringAirtightness TesterConducting IP67 waterproof rating test can quickly and accurately determine whether the product meets the waterproof standard, which greatly improves the testing efficiency and reliability.
