A standard IP protection test is far more than just a formal
requirement. It is a central building block for product security and
long-term reliability of electrical devices. In the absence of thorough
testing, there is a risk that products may break down when put into
practice – due to water ingress, dust or humidity. Such weaknesses often
remain undetected during the development process, but can result in
expensive malfunctions, complaints or even product recall when put in
the field. The financial repercussions of insufficient weathertightness
can be substantial.
A professional protection rating test in the Schüco OneLab protects
you against such risks, documents the resistance of your products and
gives you a distinct competitive advantage. If you cut corners here, you
end up paying more in the long-run. Invest in tested safety for the
housing of your products, to protect against direct contact and the
entry of dangerous components, dust, water and other foreign bodies.
Avoid expensive follow-up remedial work or liability issues.
Our modern test facilities allow realistic testing that complies
with your requirements in conditions that can be reproduced – from dust
chambers to water jet machines. We are transparent and conform to
standards in our work at all times.
