INGRESS PROTECTION IP67
The classification of degrees of protection provided by the enclosures is defined by IEC 60529. Each rating
is defined by specific tests.
The IP number is comprised of two numbers, the first referring to the protection against solid objects and
the second against fluids. The higher the number, the better the device is protected against contact with
moving parts and the harmful entry of various forms of moisture.
1st IP
Protection against ingress of solids
2nd IP
Protection against ingress of liquids
0
No protection
0
No protection
1
Protected against solid objects over 50mm e.g. hands,
large tools.
1
Protected against vertically falling drops of water.
2
Protected against solid objects over 12mm e.g. hands,
large tools.
2
Protected against direct sprays of water up to 15°
from vertical.
3
Protected against solid objects over 2.5mm e.g. wire,
small tools.
3
Protected against direct sprays of water up to 60°
from vertical.
4
Protected against solid objects over 1.0mm e.g. wires.
4
Protected against water sprayed from any direction.
Limited ingress permitted.
5
Limited protection against dust ingress (no harmful
deposit)
5
Protected against low pressure water jets from any
direction. Limited ingress permitted.
6
Totally protected against dust ingress.
6
Protected against high pressure water jets from any
direction. Limited ingress permitted.
7
Protected against temporary immersion between
15cm to 1m.
8
Protected against long periods of immersion under
pressure.
The 702M12-W Industrial Wireless Device is fully protected against dust and will remain sealed when
immersed in water to a depth of 1 meter for 1 hour when all the ports are properly mated or sealed.
This IP67 cap seals off the LAN ports if unused to protect them from dirt, water, oil or any
other contaminants which might be present in close proximity of the device.
This IP67 cap seals off the Antenna ports if unused to protect them from dirt, water, oil or
any other contaminants which might be present in close proximity of the device.
This IP67 cap seals off the Power port if unused to protect it from dirt, water, oil or any other
contaminants which might be present in close proximity of the device.
