Protection Classifications
I.P. Ingress Protection Classifications to DIN VDE 0470/EN 60529*
The protection classification offered by an enclosure is shown by the letters IP Ingress Protection, and two digits. The first digit
indicates two factors (protection for persons and equipment). The second digit indicates only one factor, protection against
water.
Similarly, changes in temperature, as may occur, for example, in the open air, are not taken into account. Such changes in
temperature may cause a loss of pressure in the enclosure, and dampness may be absorbed through the seal area.
Rose₊Bopla can supply pressure compensation elements for this purpose.

Important note:The protection classifications given for the enclosures refer to unmachined enclosures as supplied. In the case of protection against water in particular
(second digit), the test conditions will be met if during the given time for the experiment no water has penetrated, or not in harmful quantities. As the tests to show
protection classifications take no account of ageing, the maintenance of the protection classification throughout the lifetime of the equipment in not guaranteed.
