IPX8 Immersion Levels

Caution: To avoid damage to the transducer, observe the immersion levels
indicated for each transducer type. Transducers with the protection level IPX8
are indicated by the presence of the "IPX8" symbol on the connector of the
transducer. If a transducer does not have the "IPX8" symbol on the connector of
the transducer, then observe the immersion levels provided in the illustration for
Non-IPX8 transducers.
Transducers meet Ingress Protection level IPX8 of EN 60539 and IEC 60539
to the depth of the immersion line shown in the illustration only for
transducers with the "IPX8" symbol on the connector of the transducer.
Example of transducer labels with IPX8 symbol.
Endocavity transducers exceed minimum Ingress Protection level IPX7 of
IEC 60601-2-18 to the depth of the immersion line shown in the illustration.
