IP65 Enclosures provide indoor and outdoor protection for waterproof applications. Tested to IP65 Enclosure standards ensures enclosures and cases are safe for housing sensitive electronic assemblies in harsh environments. IP65 Enclosure boxes are available in plastic, aluminum and steel varieties.
IP65 enclosure is a type of electrical enclosure that is designed to provide protection against dust, water, and other environmental factors. The “IP” in IP65 stands for “Ingress Protection,” and the “65” indicates the level of protection provided by the enclosure.
The first digit “6” in IP65 indicates that the enclosure is dust-tight, which means it provides complete protection against dust and other small particles. The second digit “5” indicates that the enclosure is protected against water jets from any direction, meaning that it can withstand water sprayed on it from a nozzle.
IP65 enclosures are commonly used in outdoor applications, such as in construction sites, factories, and other harsh environments where there is a risk of exposure to dust, water, or other environmental factors. They are also used in the food and beverage industry to protect equipment from water and other liquids that can be present during cleaning.
