IPX6 rating technology logo.
IPX6 rating technology logo.

IPX6: Protection against "Powerful water jets". Water projected in powerful jets (12.5 mm (0.49 in)) against the enclosure from any direction shall have no harmful effects.

IPX7 rating technology logo.
IPX7 rating technology logo.

IPX7: Protection against "Immersion, up to 1 meter (3 ft 3 in) depth". Ingress of water in harmful quantity shall not be possible when the enclosure is immersed in water under defined conditions of pressure and time (up to 1 meter (3 ft 3 in) of submersion).

IP66 rating technology logo.
IP66 rating technology logo.

IP66: "Dust-tight" and protection against "Powerful water jets". No ingress of dust; complete protection against contact (dust-tight). A vacuum must be applied. Test duration of up to 8 hours based on airflow. Water projected in powerful jets (12.5 mm (0.49 in)) against the enclosure from any direction shall have no harmful effects.

IP67: "Dust-tight" and protection against "Immersion, up to 1 meter (3 ft 3 in) depth". No ingress of dust; complete protection against contact (dust-tight). A vacuum must be applied. Test duration of up to 8 hours based on airflow. Ingress of water in harmful quantity shall not be possible when the enclosure is immersed in water under defined conditions of pressure and time (up to 1 meter (3 ft 3 in) of submersion).

IP68: "Dust-tight" and protection against "Immersion, up to 1 meter (3 ft 3 in) or more depth". No ingress of dust; complete protection against contact (dust-tight). A vacuum must be applied. Test duration of up to 8 hours based on airflow. The equipment is suitable for continuous immersion in water under conditions which shall be specified by the manufacturer. However, with certain types of equipment, it can mean that water can enter but only in such a manner that it produces no harmful effects. The test depth and duration is expected to be greater than the requirements for IPx7, and other environmental effects may be added, such as temperature cycling before immersion.
