15. What does the IP level found on GTEK LED power supply mean (i.e. SNP200-24VLP = IP67)?
15. What does the IP level found on GTEK LED power supply mean (i.e. SNP200-24VLP = IP67)? GTEK LED power has dust/water proof design, primarily based on international standard IEC60529. Description of IP levels can be found in the table below: Table 3: Explanation for IP level
IP xy degree of protection
Dust proof (x)
Water proof (y)
0. No protection 1. Protection against solid foreign object>50mm. 2. Protection against solid foreign object>12mm. 3. Protection against solid foreign object>2.5mm. 4. Protection against solid foreign object>1mm. 5. Dust protected 6. Dust tight
0. No protection 1. Protection against vertically falling water. 2. Protection against vertically falling water when the enclosure is tilted up 15 degrees. 3. Protection against spraying water (tilted 60 degrees). 4. Protection against splashing water. 5. Protection against water jet (12.5L/minute). 6. Protection against powerful water jet (100L/minute). 7. Protection against temporary immersion in water (30 minutes, 1m below surface). 8. Protection against continuous immersion in water (conditions to be defined by manufacturer and buyer).
*IP64 or above suitable for damp indoor or outdoor environment
*IP67 cannot be continuously submerged in water
