GS752TXP Protection IP Rating
What is the Protection IP rating of GS752TXP ? Is there any reference for this. Thanks
- Hi, thanks for your message.
IP (or "Ingress Protection") ratings are defined in international standard EN 60529 (British BS EN 60529:1992, European IEC 60509:1989). They are used to define levels of sealing effectiveness of electrical enclosures against intrusion from foreign bodies (tools, dirt etc) and moisture. NETGEAR switches are not designed for any IP Rating compliance. NETGEAR switches are designed for standard office use. Hence no IP Rating of any sort.
I hope this helps,
Talking of the installation environment, like IP65..IP68? I would see these devices intended to be installed and operated in computer rooms, offices, appartments, and when I have it correct it would mach to sometihng like IP31 (Intrusion: 3 Protection against fingers or other object not greater than 80mm in length and 12mm in diameter. Moisture: 1 No protection.*)
*The datasheet does say
Operating
Operating temperature 32° to 122°F (0° to 50°C)
Humidity 90% maximum relative humidity, non-condensing
Altitude 10,000 ft (3,000 m) maximum
Don't worry about the altitutde, were operating Netgear and other manufacturer similar spec'ed devices at much higher locations here in Switzerland.
Thanks for the reply.
yes im talking about the installation environment, we have the same thought of IP rating for this device (IP31).
However, what im looking for is a paper/actual document stating the IP rating.
