LEDip protection level definition, what does the protection level of LED display mean?

The most common IP of LED products is IP54 and IP65, and the highest level is IP68

The degree of protection is the IP level.

When choosing to buy LED displays, especially outdoor fixed display screens, we should pay special attention to one parameter: IP level. What is the IP rating and what size of the IP rating display should I choose? See below.

1. Meaning of IP level:

In LED displays, the IP rating defines the ability of the LED display to resist foreign solid foreign objects (such as body parts, fingers, roadside sand, dust, etc.) and liquid foreign objects (such as rain). The higher the level, the stronger the protection.

The full name of IP is International Protection Marking (IEC 60529), also known as Ingress Protection Rating or IP Code. This is the level of protection of mechanical and electronic equipment from the ingress of solid foreign bodies and the infiltration of liquids as defined by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).

2. Composition of IP level:

IP Rating = **Letter IP + 1st Digit (Solid Foreign Object Ingress Protection) + 2nd Digit (Liquid Penetration Protection) + Additional Letter (Optional) + Supplementary Letter (Optional).

IP protection level composition.

In the entire LED display industry, the first letter IP and the first two protective numbers are marked, and the letters behind indicate additional or supplemental, which are optional, not necessary, and generally not marked.

3. Description of IP level classification and numerical meaning:

The first digit, the ability to protect against the entry of solid foreign objects, the range of values is: a single number 0-6 or the letter x

x: There is no data that can be used to prove the level of protection.

0: Unable to prevent foreign body contact and foreign body ingress.

1: Protects against solid foreign bodies with a diameter of 50mm and larger.

2: Protective diameter and larger solid exosomes.

3: Protective diameter and larger solid exosomes.

4: Protective diameter and larger solid exosomes.

5: Dustproof, but can not completely prevent dust ingress, the amount of dust entering does not affect the normal operation of the display.

6: Completely dustproof.

The second digit, liquid permeation protection capacity, the range of values is: a single number 0-8 or the letter x

x: There is no data that can be used to prove the level of protection.

0: Cannot prevent water ingress.

1: Water dripping onto the device can be protected.

2: When the device is tilted at 15 degrees, the water droplets can be protected.

3: Protection against spilled water.

4: Protects against squirted water.

5: Protect against ejected water.

6: Protects against strong ejected water.

7: Protection against short-term immersion.

8: Protect against long-term immersion in water.

You can go up to "know" and look up the IP rating, and you'll have the answer, but those things are too dead. Let me explain it to you in layman's terms. IP65 is generally the protection level of outdoor LED display (generally hanging or wall-mounted), which can be completely dustproof and rainproof.

There is also a kind of display screen that is placed on the ground, like bricks on the ground, and the level of protection must be higher, because there is often standing water on the ground. On the other hand, it is necessary to observe the use environment, and then position which protection level is located in the specific development of the display.

The IP protection level of the lamp is composed of two numbers, the first number indicates the level of the lamp against dust and the intrusion of foreign objects;

The second number indicates how tightly the luminaire is protected from moisture and water ingress. The higher the number, the higher the level of protection.

Dust protection is divided into seven levels from 0 to 6, and water protection is divided into nine levels from 0 to 8.

The following IP rating standards are for reference.

The protection class system was drafted by the IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission). The LED display is graded according to its dustproof, anti-foreign intrusion, waterproof, and moisture-proof characteristics. The foreign objects referred to here, including tools and human fingers, should not touch the live part of the lamp to avoid electric shock.

The IP protection level of LED display is composed of two numbers.

The first number indicates the level of the LED display that is dustproof and prevents the intrusion of foreign objects; The second number indicates the airtightness of the LED display against moisture and waterproof intrusion. The higher the number, the higher the level of protection. Dust resistance level (denoted by the first x), waterproof rating (denoted by the second x) and the first x denote the meaning of the number **.

LED display IP rating digital meaning.

0: No protection.

1: Prevent the intrusion of large solids.

2: Prevents the ingress of medium-sized solids.

3: Prevent small solids from entering and intruding.

4: Prevent the entry of solids larger than 1mm.

5: Prevent harmful dust accumulation.

6: Completely prevent dust from entering.

The second x represents the meaning of the number **.

0: No protection.

1: Water droplets dripping into the shell have no effect.

2: When the shell is tilted to 15 degrees, water droplets dripping into the shell have no effect 3: Water or rain has no effect from the corner of 60 degrees to the shell.

4: Liquid splashed into the shell from any direction has no harmful effect.

5: Rinse with water without any harm.

6: Can be used in the environment in the cabin.

7: Can withstand water immersion in a short time (1m) 8: Immersed in water for a long time under a certain pressure.

Generally, the dustproof and waterproof level of LED lamps and lanterns used outdoors (including guardrail pipes, street lights, etc.) is required to be IP65 or above.

The IP protection level is composed of two numbers, the first number indicates the level of dust proof and prevention of foreign objects (the foreign objects referred to here include tools, and human fingers cannot touch the live part of the electrical appliances to avoid electric shock), and the second number indicates the degree of airtightness of the electrical appliances against moisture and waterproof immersion, and the larger the number, the higher the protection level.
