A new intelligent hydrostatic pressure test, more efficient
The Hydrostatic Head Tester is connected via IoT to the SmarTexLab APP in the phone/PC. And the app can connect to ERP/LIMS via an API. Or, the instrument can connect directly to ERP/LIMS. There are test orders and sample information in the system, and the Hydrostatic Head Tester can start the hydrostatic head test and record the sample info, test process, and test results. The system will then summarize these into a test report. The report can be sent to SmarTexLab or ERP/LIMS. The relevant parties can view the report in real-time.
The operator can remotely monitor the test status of multiple hydrostatic head testers simultaneously and receive an alert directly on their smartphone when the third drop of water appears.
In SmarTexLab, you can set up programs to start or stop the Hydrostatic Head Tester. You can chat with ChiuVention service staff for quick support. You’ll get reminders that instruments need calibration, maintenance, and new consumables. Regular OTA remote upgrades are available.

Frequently Asked Questions of Hydrostatic Head Testing
Yes, hydrostatic head testing is different from waterproof testing, though they both aim to evaluate water resistance. Here’s a breakdown of how they differ and why:
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.
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.
Key Differences:
- 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.
