Preface

What is IP65f?

This unit's protection rating of IP65f is actually a composite code, consisting
of the internationally recognized British "Ingress Protection" standard (BS
EN 60529:1992) - "IP65", and the standard developed by the Japanese Elec-
tronics Manufacturer's Association (JEM) - "f". This code is used in this
manual to identify a given product's degree of structural resistance to a vari-
ety of environmental elements and thus, prevent problems or accidents re-
lated to the inappropriate use of a product.
The individual meaning of each character of this code is explained below.
This code indicates the degree of ingress protection provided from the front
face of the PL, and assumes that the PL is securely mounted into a metal
panel.
