Ingress Protection Testing

What is IP rating? 

The term IP stands for international or ingress protection marking that reflects the degree of protection a product holds. It was drawn up by the International Electrochemical Commission (ICE) to help consumers select the best and quality assured product. IP rating is followed by two nombre where the first digital helps consumers to determine the extent to which the product is protected against different particles and hazards. Whereas the second number displays the protection of the product against liquid products. 

Importance of IP rating

By getting the IP rating for your product you are able to highlight the level of protection your product holds against solid and liquid elements. This way consumers are able to determine whether the product they are buying meets their expectations or not. Apart from that, users buying the product are well aware of the protective measure so that they are able to work more safely without damaging the product.

If a product is certified with IP68 rating then it means one can easily drop his/her smartphone in the freshwater. Whereas if the phone is droppers in the ocean or chlorinated water then it can cause problems. Whereas if the particular product is having IP67 rating then it indicated that the product is dust tight and can survive upto one metre of water for not more than 30 minutes. 

Today consumers are educated enough to differentiate between various types of IP rating and so that they get the best product. If your product has an IP rating of 67 or 68 then it will not only make your product the first choice of consumers but they are likely to make the final purchase of your product. 

Many products undergo a variety of tests before they reach the market. These tests include product safety testing, electromagnetic compatibility, vibration testing and many others. Ingress Protection testing, or IP testing, tests a product’s ability to protect against “ingress,” that is, the infiltration of water, dust and foreign objects.
