The protection rating of the LED light strip represents the degree of protection of the light strip against dust and water. Generally, it is represented by the IP (Ingres protection) hierarchy system, which consists of two numbers. The first number represents the protection level for solid substances, and the second number represents the protection level for liquid substances. The higher the number, the higher the protection level.
The first number (dust protection level):
| 0 |
No protection |
| 1 |
Solid objects with diameters greater than 50mm cannot enter |
| 2 |
Solid objects with diameters greater than 12.5mm cannot enter |
| 3 |
Solid objects with diameters greater than 2.5mm cannot enter |
| 4 |
Solid objects with diameters greater than 1.0mm cannot enter |
| 5 |
Have some protection against dust |
| 6 |
Completely protected from dust entering |
The second number (waterproof level):
| 0 |
No protection |
| 1 |
Vertical water drop will not cause damage |
| 2 |
There will be no damage if it falls into the water within 15 degrees. |
| 3 |
There will be no damage if it falls into the water within 60 degrees. |
| 4 |
Water spray will not cause damage |
| 5 |
The water spray is powerful and will not cause damage |
| 6 |
Harsh environments such as waves and ship splashing will not cause damage |
| 7 |
Immersing water in a short period of time will not cause damage |
| 8 |
Long-term immersion will not cause damage |
IP67 indicates that the LED light strip can be completely protected from dust entering, and will not cause damage if immersed in water in a short period of time, and has certain waterproof and water-resistant soaking capabilities. However, although it can withstand water soaking for a short time, long-term soaking may still cause damage to the lamp strip, and you need to pay attention to the environmental conditions when using it.
