Preface
What if IP65f?
What is IP65f?
This unit's protection rating of IP65f is actually a composite code, consisting of the
internationally recognized British "Ingress Protection" standard (BS EN
60529:1992) - "IP65", and the standard developed by the Japanese Electronics
Manufacturer's Association (JEM) - "f". This code is used in this manual to identify a given product's degree of structural resistance to a variety of environmental
elements and thus, prevent problems or accidents related to the inappropriate use
of a product.
The individual meaning of each character of this code is explained below. This
code indicates the degree of ingress protection provided from the front face of the
PL, and assumes that the PL is securely mounted into a metal panel.
