*IP 66, IP 67, IP 68 and IP 69K Definitions
IP67
- Temporary Submersion
- The device is placed in water at a depth of 3.28 feet for 30 minutes
IP68
IP66
- A strong water jet directed at the sensor from any direction must not have any harmful effects.
- A jet nozzle with an inside diameter of 0.49 inches splashes a volume flow of approximately 26.4 gallons per minute, from a distance of approximately 8.2 - 9.8 Feet from all sides onto the sensor. The test time is 3 minutes.
IP69K
- A strong water jet directed at the sensor from 4 directions must not have any harmful effects.
- A jet nozzle at 0°, 30°, 60° and 90° to the sensor on a rotating table at 176° + 8°F, 4-6 inches away at 1250-1500psi. The test time is 2 minutes.
