The IP Leak test is a defined method of determining the validity of a product. The issue with using the standard tests stated in the IP Code is that they are both time consuming and destructive. Zaxis Inc. By using IP leak testing instead of physical water tests to certify IP ratings saves time.<br>

  2. Ingress protection Ingress protection is a critical part of product development particularly in the medical device assembly and electronics industries. Using IP Code is a standardized way to define just how leak proof a product is without using ambiguous terms such as waterproof. The issue with using the standard tests as laid out by the IP Code is the fact that these tests are very time consuming and destructive. Using pneumatic leak testing to validate IP ratings in place of physical water tests is time saving and non-destructive.

  3. Leak Testing for Ingress • There are many reasons, from basic product functionality to marketing, that manufacturers test their parts for ingress. In design and development processes common terms such as dust-tight or waterproof are used to describe a products level of protection against ingress, however, these terms are rather vague. Considerations such as a part or product function, form and even environment need to be taken into consideration. • Function: Are you trying to keep particulates or liquid out or in? • Form: Does product have multiple parts; do they all need the same or varying levels of protection? • Environment: Is the product meant for indoor or outdoor use, will it be submitted to high pressure or low-pressure situations?

  4. IP Standards and What They Mean The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) has published its standard 60529, otherwise known as Ingress Protection Code (IP Code). This code is comprised of the letters IP followed by two digits (example: IPXX). The first digit of the IP Code corresponds with protection against solid ingress and ranges from 0, meaning no protection, to 6, meaning dust-tight. The second digit refers to liquid ingress and ranges from 0, meaning no protection, to 9, meaning protected from powerful high-temperature water jets. Either digit may be populated with an X which can mean the protection level is 0 or the protection rating is not applicable thus not tested. The most common IP rating in medical device assembly and electronics is IP67. This ensures the product is dust tight with no particulate ingress. IP67 also validates that the product can remain submerged under 1 meter of water for up to 30 minutes with no water ingress.
