Waterproof junction boxes are generally used for power distribution, shunting and control of outdoor circuits. Based on its different waterproof and dustproof grades, as well as different sizes of space, the internal circuit can be more flexible and changeable, and can be applied to many outdoor scenes.
Such as outdoor street lights, outdoor monitoring, aquaculture, outdoor charging piles, garden spraying, and some outdoor smart circuit systems. According to the use requirements of different scenarios, the material requirements for the outside of the junction box are different. We have plastic waterproof junction boxes and cast aluminum waterproof junction boxes.
How to choose the waterproof junction box IP63-IP68 grade?
The general level of waterproofness is between IP63 and IP68, which are divided into the following categories:
- IP63: Prevent dust from entering the inside, and protected box from water spray less than 60 degrees from vertical.
- IP64: Prevent dust from entering the inside, and protected box from water spray from any direction.
- IP65: Prevent dust from entering the inside, and protected box from low pressure water jets from any direction.
- IP66: Prevent dust from entering the inside, and protected box from high pressure water jets from any direction.
- IP67: Prevent dust from entering the inside, and resistance to immersion between 15 centimetres and 1 metre in depth.
- IP68: Prevent dust from entering the inside, continuous immersion in water under a certain pressure, such as when deep-sea cabling.
