What is an IP rating?Jennifer Müller2025-03-07T15:13:23+01:00

What is an IP rating?

An IP (Ingress Protection) rating defines how well a device is protected against solids and liquids. It was established by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) under the IEC 60529 standard.

An IP rating consists of two numbers:

The first digit indicates protection against dust, meaning limited dust ingress is allowed but won’t affect functionality.
The second digit indicates protection against water splashes from any direction.

The MCI 111 A has an IP54 rating, ensuring durability in demanding airport environments.
