When do I need an IP65 rated luminaire?
You may need an IP65 luminaire in situations where the luminaire may be exposed to dust or water jets. Some common examples are:
1. Outdoor Applications: IP65 light fixtures are commonly used in outdoor applications such as street lamps, floodlights, and other lighting fixtures exposed to the elements.
2. Industrial Environments: IP65 luminaires can be used in industrial environments where there is a risk of dust or water jets, such as factories, warehouses and other manufacturing facilities.
3. Food processing and handling facilities: IP65 luminaires can be used in food processing and handling facilities to prevent the entry of dust or water jets, which could contaminate food.
4. Washdown areas: IP65 luminaires can be used in washdown areas, such as food preparation areas, where the luminaires may be exposed to water jets for cleaning.
In general, if you need a luminaire that is resistant to dust and water jets, an IP65 luminaire may be a suitable option. It is important to ensure that the luminaire is suitable for the intended application and meets the necessary requirements to ensure the safety and reliability of the lighting system.
