What does an IPX rating mean?Updated 11 hours ago
An IPX rating describes a product’s protection against water under specified test conditions.
The X means that no protection rating against dust or solid particles is specified. An IPX rating alone does not confirm dust resistance.
The permitted water exposure depends on the product’s exact rating. Check the specific model’s approved specifications and manual before exposing it to water. Water resistance does not automatically mean the product can be submerged.
