At WE-EF, we understand the ongoing needs of the exterior space, and engineer our luminaires to excel in the toughest outdoor conditions.
These conditions require IP69K – The Highest Protection Rating Available.
Why Choose IP69K Ingrades?
These fixtures are ideal for tough, commercial environments. They are certified to IP67, IP68, & IP69K:
IP67: Fixture can withstand short-term immersion, less than 3 feet
IP68: Fixture can withstand full submersion, beyond 3 feet (hermetically sealed)
IP69K: Fixture is protected against close-range, high pressure spray (1160+ psi), as well as high temperature wash downs (176°F)
What does IP69K Testing entail?
IP69K testing procedures, per ISO 20653:
• A spray nozzle that is fed with 176°F water at 1160-1450 psi, at a flow rate of 4 gallons/min.
• The nozzle is held 4-6in from the tested device at angles of 0°, 30°, 60°, and 90° for 30 seconds each
• The test fixture sits on a turntable that rotates once every 12 seconds.
The product passes the certification only if there is absolutely zero water ingress after the test.
