IP "INGRESS PROTECTION"

 

INGRESS PROTECTION

Ingress Protection rating is determination of the degree of protection provided by electrical housing/enclosure.

DEGREE OF PROTECTION

1. FIRST DIGIT:

  • The first digit stand for protection against solid intrusions.

  • It ranges from 0 – 7.

  • 0 indicates no protection while 7 indicates 100% protection against dust.

2. SECOND DIGIT:

  • The second digit stands for the level of protection against liquid.

  • It ranges from 0 – 9.

  • 0 indicates no protection while 9 indicates full prolonged immersion under water.


IP20:-

  • In IP20, the light is protected against solid objects /intrusions up to 12mm

IP42:-

  • Protection of light from both solid objects upto > 1.0mm diameter as well as from dripping water at 15° from normal position. 

IP65:-

  • Fully dust proof light including water protection by nozzle from any direction.

IP66:-

  • In IP66, in addition with dust protection, the light is capable to deal with water coming from powerful jets from any direction

IP67:-

  • Fully dustproof., ie; dust would not interfere with working of light. Also, light is protected against immersion in depth less than 1m.

IP68:-

  • Light is completely protected by solid particles and also, light is protected against complete and continuous submersion in water greater than 1m. It also depends on manufacturers specifications.

Vital Difference: Flameproof vs. Non-Flameproof Industrial Lighting Products

Image
In industrial environments, where safety is paramount, choosing the right lighting solutions is crucial. Among the myriad options available, two categories stand out: flameproof and non-flameproof lighting products. In India , where stringent safety standards govern industrial operations, understanding the difference between these two types of lighting is essential for ensuring compliance and safeguarding personnel and assets. What are Flameproof and Non-Flameproof Industrial Lighting Products ? Flameproof lighting products , also known as explosion-proof lighting , are designed to prevent the ignition of flammable gases or vapors present in hazardous atmospheres . These luminaries  are constructed with robust enclosures that can withstand and contain any internal explosion, minimizing the risk of an external expl

The Utilization of PIR Sensor as a Unique Product

Image
Have you ever wondered how your motion-sensitive lights turn on automatically when you approach them? Or how your home security system detects intruders without any physical contact? The answer lies in a remarkable technology called the Passive Infrared (PIR) sensor . In this blog post, we will delve into the technical details of PIR sensors and explore their unique applications, all while keeping it simple and easy to understand. Let's start by understanding what a PIR sensor actually is. PIR sensors are electronic devices that can detect infrared radiation emitted by objects in their field of view. In simpler terms, they can sense the heat emitted by living beings and other objects. This makes them perfect for detecting human presence and movement.                                          The working principle of a PIR sensor is quite fascinating. Inside the sensor, there are two important components: a pyroelectric sensor and a Fresnel lens. The pyroelectric sensor is made
