IP Rating Table

The IP rating system establishes a two-digit number to indicate a product's level of protection against solid objects and liquids. The first digit refers to object protection, ranging from 0 (no protection) to 6 (dust tight). The second digit refers to water protection, ranging from 0 (no protection) to 9 (close-range high pressure spray). Higher numbers indicate better protection. For example, a rating of IP54 is better protected than IP42.

IP Ratings (Ingress Protection)

A two-digit number established by the International Electro Technical C ommission, is used to provide an Ingress
Protection rating to a piece of electronic equipment or to an enclosure for electronic equipment.

The protection class after EN60529 are indicated by short symbols that consist of the two code letters IP and a
code numeral for the amount of the protection.

Example: IP65 (NEMA 4)


The two digits represent different forms of environmental influence:
• The first digit represents protection against ingress of solid objects.
• The second digit represents protection against ingress of liquids.

The larger the value of each digit, the greater the protection. As an example, a product rated IP54 would be
better protected against environmental factors than another similar product rated as IP42.

IP protection of the PIP:

A PIP in the standard PIP housing is generally IP51 protected. Higher IP protection level with the standard PIP
housing (up to IP54) can be reached with good positioning / orientation of the PIP. In other special PIP-housings,
like a MIL-housing up to IP67 protection is possible.

IP protection of the PANEL-PIP:

The PANEL-PIP is available in various housings. Those allow a protection level of up to all around IP65.
