[PSES] SV: [PSES] IP Code Question

2022-02-15 Thread Amund Westin
IP66 is for harsh outdoor conditions (industrial, offshore, ships, carwash, 
etc.)

IPX6 : powerful water jets (water hose :100 liters / minute).

 

IP67 (temporary immersion in water) 

 

Best regards Amund

I agree wit Ted Eckert on this. Generally for outdoor use you’d need IP65 at 
least.

Re: [PSES] IP Code Question

2022-02-14 Thread Don Gies
I have seen large industrial UPSs or battery chargers that have IP22 roofs.  
The roofs cover over fan grilles on the top, leaving approx. 50 mm of air for 
ventilation.

Though they may be used to stop water drips or condensation coming off pipes, 
they are mostly intended to keep cut stranded wires, small objects, screws, 
dust, etc. out of the fan ducts.

They very unofficially serve as a place for electricians to sit while they are 
populating overhead cable trays or installing conduit.

Hi Brian,
The IP ratings apply to continuous situations unless stated otherwise.  So IPX2 
means that water drops can be continuously falling at 3mm/min when the EUT is 
tilted up to 15°.  The test lasts for 2.5 minutes per side, but the environment 
is considered continuous.  For our machinery with IP32, we typically make sure 
that any water that enters the enclosure will be directly away from any 
components therein and toward drain holes at the bottom of the enclosure.

Best regards,

Re: [PSES] [EXTERNAL] [PSES] IP Code Question

2022-02-14 Thread Ted Eckert
Hi Brian,

It is reasonable to state that an IP22 device is not intended for outdoor use 
or where exposed to water. A much higher IP rating would be required for 
reliable operation outdoors, and most people who purchase outdoor equipment 
would not accept a product with only an IP22 rating.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [PSES] IP Code Question

An IP code of IPx2 implies the enclosure protects against the ingress of water 
drops at 15° tilt.  Now, most PC enclosures protect the electronics from 
occasional exposure to water drops, but it is not designed to be exposed to 
water drops continuously.  So can you rate an electronic device IP22, for 
instance, but not intend it to be used outside or in an environment where it is 
exposed to water on a regular basis?

Thanks for your input.
