IP is Ingress Protection, IP rating for electrical equipment enclosure Protection grade of foreign invasion, the source is the international electrotechnical commission IEC 60529 standard. IP is the international code used to identified protection grade, IP level is composed of two Numbers, format IPXX, where XX is two digits, the first number said dustproof, said contact protection and foreign body protection level; Said second number by waterproof, the greater the number the better its protection grade.
the first number indicates that the scope of the equipment against dust or the people in a sealed environment from the extent of the damage. I represent to prevent foreign matter into the solid level, * * * is 6;
the second device, according to the degree of waterproof. P is to prevent the water level, * * * is 8.
the protection level of IP65, such as motor protection grade IP55, dustproof IP protection grade 1 - 6 ( Usually 5, and 6 do more) 。
IP1X invasion of greater than 50 mm object, a diameter of 50 nm try spherical objects may not be completely into the shell;
IP2X invasion more than 12 mm of object, a diameter of 12. Try 5 mm spherical objects may not be completely into the shell;
IP3X prevent greater than 2. 5 mm of the intrusion, diameter of 2. Try 5 mm objects must not enter the shell completely;
IP4X prevent greater than 1. 0 mm of intrusion object, diameter of 1. 0 mm object test shall not enter the enclosed completely;
IP5X dust, can not completely prevent dust into the man have to affect the normal operation of the equipment but in the amount of dust shall not affect safety;
IP6X dust tight, completely prevent dust intrusion; Level 1 -
waterproof IP protection 8:
IPX1 prevent vertical drop, vertical drop of water should be no harmful effects;
IPX2 prevent when shell within 15 degrees tilt vertical drop of water, when the shell of the vertical plane within 15 degrees tilt, vertical drop of water should be no harmful effects;
IPX3 water spray water, the vertical plane within 60 degrees to drench water, no harmful effects;
IPX4 water splash, splash water to the shell each direction without harmful effects;
IPX5 water spray, water to the shell all directions without harmful effects;
IPX6 strongly water, strong water spray to the shell all directions without harmful effects;
IPX7 prevent flooding effect, short time people prescribed pressure water after the prescribed time shells into the water does not up to harmful levels;
IPX8 continued diving effect, the manufacturer and user of the two sides agreed to terms and conditions ( To be harsh than characteristic digital for 7) Continuous shell after diving into the water does not up to harmful levels;
what product needs to be done waterproof dustproof test? There is no hard and fast rules, in the outdoor lamps and lanterns, electronic appliances, automobile, communications and other industries generally can do with shell products, electric equipment to do more, such as street lamp, lawn lamp, mobile phones, sensors, distribution box, waterproof and dustproof junction box, etc. If it is to do it according to the standard need product rated voltage not exceeding 72. 5 kV( The common product is 220 v) , with the aid of enclosure protection of electric equipment protection grade. Below illustrate common test products:
LED lawn lamp, LED lamp series, LED lights belt, LED power supply, LED floodlight, LED light, LED street light, LED panel light, LED fluorescent lamp, LED lamp, LED underwater lights, LED tube light, LED project-light lamp, LED emergency light, controller, WIFI, camera, notebook computers, induction cooker, motor shell, electric kettle, power supply, waterproof boxes, car lamp, lens headlight, mining lights, outdoor LED display, outdoor lighting, landscape lamp, street lamp, underwater lights, tunnel lights, searchlights, garden lights, stage lights, hard article lamp, aquarium lamp, gas station light, camera, mobile phone, twisted-pair transmitter, waterproof signal lines, outdoor surveillance equipment, power distribution cabinet.
