Application of needle flame test apparatus according to IEC60695-11-5

IEC60695-11-5 specifies a needle-flame test to simulate the effect of a small flame, which may result from fault conditions, in order to assess by a simulation technique the fire hazard. It is applicable to electrotechnical equipment, its sub assemblies and components and to solid electrical insulating materials or other combustible materials.

The needle-flame test apparatus must be designed according to IEC60695-11-5 clause 5, the requirements for burner, flame, chamber, specified layer, timer and etc. are given on clauses 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4 and 5.5. The test flame is applied to that part of the surface of the test specimen which is most likely to be affected by flames resulting from normal use or from fault conditions.

Generally, the test results have two situations as below:
1) There is no flame and no glowing of the test specimen, and no ignition of the specified layer or wrapping tissue.
2) Flames or glowing of the test specimen and the surrounding parts extinguish within 30s after the removal of the needle flame. Also, the surrounding parts have no burnt away completely an there has been no ignition of the specified layer or wrapping tissue.

The needle flame test apparatus made by Pego is strictly designed according to IEC60695-11-5. Recently, a lab from Chile made an order to Pego, they compared the quality, service and price, finally, they choose us as their supplier.  For more details about needle-flame test apparatus, please contact us by sales@pegotester.com.

UL746A High Current ARC Ignition Test Apparatus 32.5A/COSφ0.5

UL746A High Current ARC Ignition Test Apparatus 32.5A/COSφ0.5   1.  Introduction: The high current arc ignition tes t apparatus is designed according to  IEC60950-1:2001  clause 4.7.3.6 , BS/EN60950-1:2001, BS7002:2001, GB4943-2001 and UL746A, IEC60947.1:1999, GB/T14048.1-2000, IEC730.1:1993, GB14536.1-1998 and etc..  It ’ s used to measure and assess  solid insulating material against to resistance to ignition from arcing electrical sources. A power 240V(AC)/60Hz is to be supplied to the test electrodes  (fixed electrode and movable electrode) , a series (inductive-resistive) air core impedance is to be provided to yield a short circuit current of 32.5A and a power factor of 0. 5. The sample is be to positioned with the electrodes making initial contact on the surface of the sample, the circuit is to be energized and the cyclic arcing started. The timing of arcs is to be adjusted to a rate of 40 arcs/min, the rate of electrode separation is to be 254±...

what equipment can be used for IPX3 and IPX4 water ingress protection test?

1. Spray nozzle 1.  Introduction The spray nozzle hand-held device is designed according to IEC60529 figure 5, it is it is apply to verify the protection against spraying water (IPX3) and splashing water (IPX4) for large size sample. The hand-held device is consisted by spray nozzle, moving shield, counterweight, hose and pressure gauge. The spray nozzle is made of brass and has 121 holes with diameter 0.5mm (1 hole at center, 1 inner circles of 12 holes at 30 0  pitch, 4 outer circles of 24 holes at 15 0 pitch). The moving shield is made of aluminum, the counterbalanced shield is in place for IPX3 test, the water pressure is adjusted to give the specified delivery rate, the pressure to achieve this delivery rate will be in the range of 50kPa to 150kPa, and it should be kept constant during the test, the test duration is 1min/m 2  of the calculated surface of the enclosure and with a minimum duration of 5 min. For IPX4 test, the counterbalanced shield is removed fro...
