SpritzwasserTests
SpritzwasserTests are a category of engineering tests designed to evaluate a device’s resistance to splashing water. They are part of ingress protection testing and focus on splash conditions rather than immersion, making them relevant for products exposed to rain, splashes, or wash-down scenarios. The tests are used across electronics, automotive components, outdoor equipment, and consumer devices to verify enclosure integrity, seals, and coatings.
In typical SpritzwasserTests, a test specimen is subjected to a regulated spray or water jets from specified
Evaluation criteria generally include the absence of water ingress into critical areas, preserved operation of the
Standards and references: SpritzwasserTests are commonly aligned with international ingress protection standards such as IEC/EN 60529,
