  • Portable hydrostatic head (water penetration) tester for on-site evaluation of textile water resistance.
  • No electricity required, portable design for field measurements with no time and space limitations.
  • Two test methods: rising-pressure method (record pressure at leakage) and fixed-pressure (pass/fail by time without leakage).
  • Manual gripping method with 12 × 12 cm specimen size and 9.4 cm test area diameter.
  • Switchable pressure ranges (model dependent) up to 10,000 mmH2O.

Overview

Cometech QC-317M / QC-317N Portable Hydrostatic Head Tester is designed for on-site measurement of textile water-resistance ability. The portable system works without electricity, making it suitable for field inspections and quick checks in production or warehouse environments. The tester supports two evaluation methods: gradually increasing pressure until leakage occurs (hydrostatic head value) or holding at a specified pressure for a fixed time to confirm whether leakage occurs.

Technical Specifications

Test methods

  • Rising-pressure method: operate the manual pressurizing bulb repeatedly to gradually increase pressure; keep pressurizing at about 1 kg/cm²/min, stop when three leakage points appear, and record the gauge reading as the water-resistance value.
  • Fixed-pressure method: pressurize to a specified pressure and observe after a fixed time; no leakage means pass.
