How to do salt spray test against LED products?

In hostile coastal areas, one frequent technique for assessing the effectiveness and endurance of LED products is the salt spray test. The test recreates the damaging effects of salt spray, salt fog, and other corrosive factors that are typical in coastal regions.

The following procedures need to be carried out in order to carry out the salt spray test on LED products:

  • In order to test LED goods, it is customarily necessary to put the LED modules on a test board or fixture. The test specimens should be prepared. In order to eliminate any impurities or residue that could have an impact on the findings of the test, the test specimens need to be washed and dried.
  • Install the test chamber The salt spray test is carried out in an apparatus known as a salt spray test chamber, which is intended to produce and maintain a controlled environment by precisely regulating the temperature and the amount of moisture in the air. The chamber should be set up in accordance with the instructions provided by the manufacturer as well as the required test circumstances, which may include temperature, humidity, and the concentration of salt spray.
  • Apply the salt spray: The salt spray is produced by a nebulizer or spray nozzle system, which atomizes the salt water and forms a fine mist that is sprayed over the test specimens. This process is known as spraying the test specimens with the salt mist. It is recommended that the test specimens be subjected to the salt spray for a certain amount of time, which may range anywhere from 24 to 48 hours in length depending on the requirements of the test.
  • Monitor the test specimens It is important to monitor the test specimens on a frequent basis in order to track any changes that may occur in their behavior or appearance over the course of the test. This may involve keeping an eye out for any changes in the amount of light produced by the LED, the color temperature, or any other performance aspects.
  • Evaluating the findings After the test has been finished, the test specimens need to be assessed in order to identify the level of any damage or deterioration that has taken place. This may involve electrical testing, visual inspections, or other measures to assess the performance and durability of the LED goods in the environment of salt spray.

In conclusion, the salt spray test is a useful approach for testing the performance and endurance of LED goods in severe coastal areas. This test involves spraying salt on the items. LED product manufacturers can identify potential failure points and make improvements to their products to enhance their performance and durability in corrosive environments by testing the products in a controlled environment that simulates the effects of salt spray, salt fog, and other corrosive elements. This is accomplished by exposing the LED products to the controlled environment. The test is an essential component of the product development process, and it gives manufacturers the ability to guarantee that their LED products are designed and produced to fulfill the requirements of the environment in which they are meant to be used.

What are the differences of FMVSS 302, UL94 and IEC60695 for flammability test?

Image
The flammability of different materials, such as plastics and other materials used in items such as automobile interiors, electronic devices, and electrical appliances, is evaluated using a number of different standards. Some of these standards are FMVSS 302, UL 94, and IEC 60695. Nevertheless, there are a number of important distinctions between these standards: FMVSS 302 is a specialized standard that was designed for the automotive industry to analyze the flammability of materials used in car interiors. Its purpose is to measure the combustibility of these materials. The UL 94 standard is a more comprehensive regulation that assesses the combustibility of a variety of materials, including plastics, and has applications in a number of different sectors. IEC 60695 is a global standard that is used in the process of assessing the potential for electronic and electrical equipment to catch fire. Testing Procedures The flammability of materials is determined using a variety of testing ...

125 Grounding Contact Test 125.1 Grounding receptacles having a 5-15R,5-20R，6-13R，6-20R，7-15R，14-15Ror 15-15R configuration are to be subjected to the tests in this section. 125.2 Previously untested devices are to be used. Each device is to be mounted in a flush device box, or as otherwise intended, with its face in a vertical plane. A nonmetallic faceplate is to be installed if intended. A solid 14 AWG (2.1 mm2) copper conductor is to be connected to the receptacle grounding terminal. GNGPL SB1610_AL 125.3 With the receptacle oriented to create the maximum contact displacement (possible distortion of contact affecting its contact ability), the test pin A. Figure 125.1 is to be fully inserted in the grounding contact. A 5 lb (2.27 kg) weight is to be gradually suspended form the test pin 6 inches (152 mm) from the face of the receptacle. The weight is to be applied for 1 minute, following which, the weight is to be removed. The application of the weight is to be repeated with the rece...

Accessible parts of equipment with standard IEC 62368 General An accessible part of an equipment is a part that can be touched by a body part. For the purposes of dctermining an accessible part, a body part is represented by one or more of the specified test probes. Accessible parts of an equipment can include parts behind a door, panel, removable cover, etc. that can be opened without the use of a tool. Accessible parts do not include those that become accessible when floor standing equipment having a mass exceeding 40 kg is tilted. For equipment intended for building-in or rack-mounting, or for subassemblies and the like for incorporation in larger equipment,accessible parts do not include those that are not accessible when the equipment or subassembly is installed according to the method of mounting or installation specified in the installation instructions. A part is considered accessible if the instructions or markings intended to be followed require that a person phys...
