Impactors for Hammer Test
Ergonomics design, fabricates, and calibrates an array of impactors that comply with the Hammer Tests
required in IEC 60068-2-75:2014. Below is our Model IH1, which complies with Figure A.1 of IEC 60068-
2-75:2014. This impactor is designed and fabricated in our tool and design shop located in the same
facilities as our ISO 17025:2107 calibration laboratory. This ensures a high quality, accurate product that
exceeds the standards required. This is an example of a striking element that less than or equal to 1
Joule.
Model IH1
Ergonomics offers impactors for a larger array for energy levels, from 2 Joules to 50 Joules. Please
review our chart and images below for the energy levels and the corresponding figure that it applies to
standard IEC 60068-2-75:2014. These impactors are designed and fabricated in our tool and design shop
located in the same facilities as our ISO 17025:2107 calibration laboratory. This ensures a high quality,
accurate product that exceeds the standards required.
IH2, IH5, IH10, IH20, IH50
Ergonomics also offers CUSTOM impactors to fit our customer’s specific needs. Below is an example of a
customer that required a 5 pound impactor that needed to fit their specific testing system. Our
standard IH5 impactor is 60 mm in diameter for the base of the cylinder. Our customer needed this
custom weight to fit in a Ø 50 mm tube. Our design team reduced the overall diameter of the base and
lengthened the cylinder to accommodate their system. These new design instructions were then
passed on to our manufacturing team , who then fabricated this precise testing equipment to
specification. Please see below for an image of the final product. Please contact us today for any of your
custom fabrication needs for product and safety testing.
