CDG provides IK Impact protection testing in India. CDG is an accredited organization in India.
PRINCIPLESThis rating can be decisive in a product selection. It doesn’t rate the mechanical life but the capacity of a product to face environmental aggressions.Therefore it is a key feature for any product intended for consumer goods.The IK impact resistance is rated through a specific test carried out with a “Charpy pendulum” impact tester.This device measures the resistance of a product submitted to 3 repeated identical impacts.The impact energy (in joules) depends on 2 elements:• The distance between the hammer and the tested sample• The hammer weightAccording to the resistance level rated during the test, an IK code is assigned to the product. This code ranging from IK0 to IK10, determines the energy level the product can absorb.

WHAT IS THE IK IMPACT RESISTANCE RATING?Technical brochures often refer to IK rating.But what does this rating stand for? The anti-vandal pushbuttons switches AV 250 comply with the IK standardInitially related to the IP sealing test, the Ik rating became a specific rating to measure the impact resistance of product in 1995.It is now related to the EN 62-262 European standard.

We offer a complete IK (Impact Protection) consultation and testing service covering all the different levels of impact protection.
IK ratings are defined as IKXX, where “XX” is a number from 00 to 10 indicating the degrees of protection provided by enclosures (including luminaires) against external mechanical impacts. The different IK ratings relate to the ability of an enclosure to resist impact energy levels measured in joules (J). EN/IEC 62262 specifies how the enclosure must be mounted for testing, the atmospheric conditions required, the quantity and distribution of the test impacts and the impact hammer to be used for each level of IK rating.

• IK00 Not protected
• IK02 Protected against 0.2 joules impact
• IK03 Protected against 0.35 joules impact
• IK04 Protected against 0.5 joules impact
• IK05 Protected against 0.7 joules impact
• IK06 Protected against 1 joule impact
• IK07 Protected against 2 joules impact
• IK08 Protected against 5 joules impact
• IK09 Protected against 10 joules impact
• IK10 Protected against 20 joules impact

Why us?Our qualified auditors independently assess everything from production capacities and quality control systems to staff facilities and working conditions. We go on site and get the information you need to ensure high-quality suppliers.CDG is an accredited inspection body for ‘IK Impact protection Testing ’ (as an approved scope). Before selecting any inspection agency always ask for their accreditation status & scope. A non-accredited agency may not be efficient to conduct IK Impact inspections adequately & efficiently.
CDG is an ISO 17020 accredited inspection and Iso 17025 accredited laboratory testing services provider in India.

STANDARDS FOR GLASS IMPACT AND IMPACT RESISTANCEHere you will find an overview of important international standards with a focus on glass, in particular impact resistance and impact load. It is important for us to communicate the standards, test setups, and procedures in a clear and simple way. Glass is a material that is very important to us and has not been researched enough. There is a lack of bundled special knowledge about the impact resistance of glass and we want to close this gap. 

WHY IMPACT TESTINGRELIABLE AND COST-EFFICIENT PRODUCTSImpact testing has an enormous scientific importance and practical relevance. A collision between two items or objects can often result in damage to one or both. The damage might be a crack, fracture or break. Therefore, engineers need to know how materials and products behave under impact and the magnitude of forces they can withstand.

WHAT IS THE GOAL OF IMPACT TESTINGANALYSIS OF WEAK POINTSThe end goal of impact testing is to provide accurate analytics regarding the specimen’s weak links. The inference from that data will then be used to reinforce and strengthen the enclosures, thus making them more impact-resistant, robust and safe. Making the products more durable and secure increases brand trustworthiness amongst consumers.

SEVERITY INCREASEFrom IK class IK07, the energy gain per level increases by more than 100%. The exponential increase in impact resistance makes the demands on glasses particularly high and places maximum demands on the material and the integration method. Especially in the extremely robust area of IK10 and IK11, where the impact energy ranges from 20 to 50 joules, every detail counts. The correct integration of the glass for optimal impact resistance is an important prerequisite. We offer you proven integration methods at minimal cost.

CALCULATE ENERGY IK TESTA Joule is a physical unit of energy. In the IK test, you calculate the impact energy by multiplying the height of fall with the weight of the impact element and the number 10.Impact energy (W) = fall height (h) * weight (m) * 10Calculation example: 1.00 m drop height * 1.00 kg mass impact element * 10 = 10 joules impact energy 0.50 m drop height * 2.00 kg mass impact element * 10 = 10 joules impact energy.
