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