Industry standard Thermal shock test Shock test IP 69K high-pressure cleaning test In pressure cleaning environments, proximity sensors are exposed to extreme temperature conditions. This is why ifm performs thermal shock tests on the sensors by cycling the temperature between 0 and 100 ˚C in short time intervals. After the test, the sensors’ characteristics are tested to ensure high reliability. Sensors can be exposed to high levels of shock in industrial environments. This is why ifm sensors are tested at a shock level of 500 g. This test standard sets a new benchmark for inductive sensor product...
