AI Detects the water droplets.
After the hydrostatic head test is started, the ultra-high definition camera will photograph the sample surface and monitor the water seepage throughout the process. AI intelligently judges the water droplets that meet the requirements and records the formation time and pressure value of the three droplets respectively, then stops the test and notifies the tester through the SmarTexLab App. The image report and video are generated automatically. You can playback the video to manually verify the results to avoid disputes. The instrument is equipped with a 10.1-inch high-definition display and has built-in computer.
Intelligent Detection Assist Mode
For some special fabric samples, flexible fabrics with raised surfaces, and fabrics prone to bursting, AI detection allows for a quick manual review. If the AI test results do not meet the requirements, you can manually mark the seepage point. There is no need to retest.
The AI is learning and refining, and its detection capabilities are increasing.
HydroDetector’s AI keeps learning. It allows for better detection through extensive testing.
Avoid water spraying after bursting of sample
The unique servo pressurization design makes the process smooth and stable. It avoids burst specimens and sprayed water from old compressed-air methods.
High-pressure testing is possible.
HydroDetectors are capable of high-pressure testing up to 600 kPa. You can customize higher test pressures.
Intelligent Sample Clamping System
with AI algorithm driven servo clamping system, this instrument can adjust the clamping pressure based on the samples’ thickness and hydrostatic pressure resistance. So the sample can get the necessary pressure without water leakage and change in fabric organization. Then it avoids invalid test caused by water seeps through the edges of the clamps.
In addition, this design avoids other problems, such as broken samples due to over-clamped or water leaks due to not enough clamping, which are usually caused by manual rotary clamping, cylinder clamping or mechanical clamping.
The HydroDetector can connect to ERP or LIMS
The instrument connects to the SmarTexLab APP via IoT on a smartphone or computer. It can also connect directly to ERP/LIMS. The operator can remotely monitor the status of multiple tests and get a reminder before the test ends. After the test, the test report including the sample information, test process and results will be generated and uploaded to the system. All relevant parties can view the report in real-time. You can use online chat to get quick support from ChiuVention customer service. Also, receive reminders to calibrate, maintain, and replace consumables on the instrument. Lastly, we can perform OTA remote upgrades regularly.

About Hydrostatic Head Testing
- Purpose: Hydrostatic head testing measures the resistance of a material to water penetration under pressure. It specifically quantifies how much water pressure (typically measured in millimeters of water column or Pa) a material can withstand before water starts to penetrate.
- Procedure: In hydrostatic head testing, a sample of the material is placed under a column of water. The water pressure is gradually increased, and the height of the water column (or equivalent pressure) is recorded when water begins to seep through the material.
- Common Applications: This test is often used for materials like waterproof fabrics, membranes, or textiles used in outdoor gear, tents, and clothing.
- Outcome: The result is a specific value that indicates the water resistance level, allowing manufacturers to grade the material’s waterproof capability based on standardized benchmarks.
About Waterproof Testing:
- Purpose: Waterproof testing is a broader term that refers to a range of tests designed to assess whether a product or material can prevent water penetration under specific conditions. It is not restricted to the pressure of water but can include other factors like immersion, rain exposure, and sealing efficiency.
- Procedure: Waterproof testing methods vary widely depending on the industry. It could include:
- Submersion tests (immersion in water for a set time)
- Rain chamber tests (exposing a product to simulated rain)
- Spray tests (simulating splashing water)
- Sealing tests (for electronics or enclosures)
- Time and depth criteria also vary, meaning a product might be tested at a certain depth underwater for a specific duration.
- Common Applications: Waterproof testing is applied to electronics (e.g., smartphones), footwear, construction materials, packaging, and any product expected to be fully waterproof in its intended environment.
- Outcome: The result is typically a pass/fail determination, based on whether the product or material remains dry inside after exposure to water under specified conditions.
What are the differences between Hydrostatic Head Test and Waterproof Testing?
- Testing Focus:
- Hydrostatic Head Test focuses specifically on the water resistance of materials under pressure, quantifying the level of water pressure a material can resist before water seeps through.
- Waterproof Testing is broader and evaluates overall water impermeability under various environmental conditions, including but not limited to pressure, immersion, and rainfall.
- Measurement:
- Hydrostatic Head Test results are expressed in measurable units (e.g., mm H₂O, Pa) that reflect how much pressure the material can handle.
- Waterproof Testing usually provides a pass/fail result based on the performance of a product under specific waterproof criteria, such as immersion or exposure to rain.
- Application Scope:
- The Hydrostatic Head Test is mainly applied to materials like textiles and fabrics.
- Waterproof Testing encompasses a wider range of products, from electronics and footwear to construction materials, and involves different methodologies depending on the industry.
Summary:
While hydrostatic head testing is a specific type of waterproof testing focused on measuring water resistance under pressure, waterproof testing includes a broader array of tests that may involve submersion, rain simulation, or splash resistance for various products. The difference lies in the methodology and the scope of the application.
