With the arrival of summer, the country has also entered the rainy season. At this time, various parts of the south and many areas in the north may be affected by rain. As a user of electric vehicles, facing this situation, waterproofing should be the key.So, next let’s talk about which accessories of electric vehicles are most afraid of water, and how can we waterproof them?So what kind of IP waterproof level should be achieved?How to detect electric vehicle accessoriesIP waterproof ratingWoolen cloth?

First of all, we should make it clear that electric vehicles are waterproof and what parts need to be paid attention to.What level does the IP waterproof level need to reach?

From the overall design and focus of electric vehicles, the four major parts of electric vehicles, including batteries, motors, controllers, and lighting fixtures, are constantly following electric vehicles, and these four major components are also the main reasons why electric vehicles are short-circuited due to water ingress and cannot be ridden.

1. Water entering the motor

Most of the electric vehicle motors on the market today are rear-mounted, and the motor is the lowest major component from the ground where you are riding. It is most likely to get water. Once water gets in, it will be the main part that causes a short circuit.When riding, if you wade into deep water, it is easy for rainwater to enter the motor shaft and short-circuit the motor circuit, causing the problem of being unable to ride.Moreover, the motor is the soul and core component of the electric motorcycle, but the price is relatively expensive, so the IP waterproof level must be high, and it must be able to withstand the impact and immersion of water in all aspects.Then only if it reaches IP67 level and waterproof level above IP67.Because the IP67 waterproof rating means that it completely prevents the entry of dust, it can withstand strong water jets directed at the motor from every direction without causing damage.When immersed in water for a short period of time under standard pressure, there should not be an amount of water that can cause harmful effects.Then its detection can be carried out using Hai Ruisi’s IP waterproof detection equipment.

2. Water entering the controller causes a short circuit

The controller is generally arranged under the back seat, which has relatively good airtightness and is not directly exposed to the air. However, there are also some simple electric vehicle controllers that are installed under the vehicle beam. The position is low and it is easy for water to enter. After wading in water, it is easy to cause a short circuit.Then it is reasonable that the waterproof requirement of the controller should be IP66. IP66 can withstand the spray of water from all directions without affecting the use of the controller and adverse factors caused by water, because the controller is generally less likely to be soaked by water. Unless the electric vehicle is a top-level configuration, it needs to be waterproofed above IP67 level.The IP66 IP67 waterproof testing of electric vehicle controllers can also use the air tightness testing equipment of Hirays Automatic Technology, which can be applied to different working conditions and IP waterproof level testing.

3. Battery rain short circuit

The battery is the source of power for electric vehicles. If water enters the battery, it can easily cause a short circuit in the battery, resulting in battery power failure and even the risk of electric shock.Then the test of the IP waterproof level of the battery is also indispensable. Therefore, if you want an electric vehicle to be waterproof, you must make the three major parts of the motor, controller, and battery waterproof.The waterproof testing of batteries can also use the air-tight leakage detection equipment of Hai Ruisi Automatic Technology, because if the country is promoting new energy electric vehicles, the batteries of electric vehicles must be more complicated than those of electric vehicles, and our company can also test the batteries of electric vehicles, of course, electric vehicles are not a problem.

If we want the sales of electric vehicles to reach a higher level, the IP waterproof rating of the lighting fixtures of electric vehicles must also be indispensable.Our company can also detect IP waterproof testing of the same lamps, such as IP65 waterproof testing of LED lamps, IP65 waterproof testing of street lamps, IP66 waterproof testing of solar lamps, IP67 waterproof testing of underwater lamps, etc.

Looking at many air tightness testing equipment companies around the world, many brands of air tightness testing equipment have done a lot of research and experimental work on waterproof testing, sealing testing, and IP level testing, and have achieved good results.In places such as waterproof testing, sealing testing, IP level testing, and leak detection, you can often see the air-tightness leak detection equipment of Hirays Company shuttled around. This can also show to some extent that the detection capabilities of Shenzhen Hiraysi's air-tightness leak detection equipment are by no means ordinary.Really go out into the world
