Salt spray test against LED light according to IEC60068 and ASTM-B117

Image
LED lights, like many other electrical devices, may be tested for their resistance to corrosion by being subjected to salt spray testing. The salt spray and salt fog that may be seen in coastal areas will be replicated in this test to represent the corrosive effects of the environment. IEC60068 and ASTM-B117 are only two examples of the many international standards that outline the protocols and criteria for salt spray testing. The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) has established the IEC60068 standard for the environmental testing of electrical and electronic goods. The salt spray test is only one of several used to determine how well electrical items hold up under varying conditions. The temperature, humidity, salt concentration, and length of time for salt spray testing are all specified in IEC60068. ASTM-B117 is an American standard for testing the durability of electronic and electrical goods against corrosion. In-depth instructions and prerequisites for performi...

How to do salt fog test for LED street lamp with a salt spray chamber?

Image
A salt fog test is an important method for evaluating the corrosion resistance of LED street lamps, which are frequently subjected to harsh coastal environments where salt spray and salt fog can cause corrosion and degradation. This type of test is an important part of the evaluation process because LED street lamps are frequently exposed to these types of environments. The LED street lighting will be put through their paces by being subjected to a controlled environment that will act as a stand-in for the impacts of salt spray and salt fog. The following procedures may be carried out inside of a salt spray chamber in order to carry out a salt fog test on LED street lamps : Prepare the test specimens: The LED Street lights should be tested in their completed state, meaning that they should be completely built with all of the components and accessories. In order to eliminate any impurities or residue that could have an impact on the findings of the test, the test specimens need to b...
