The Ultimate FAQ Guide to IP44 Enclosures

What does the IP code mean?

The IP code stands for Ingress Protection.

It is also known as IEC standard 60529, and EN 60529 in Europe.

It consists of 2 numbers following IP.

The first number corresponds to the level of protection against the ingress of solids, whereas the second digit corresponds to the ingress of liquids.

 Dust rating of the IP code

For dust, the numbers go from 1 to 6, and for liquids, they go from 1 to 9K.

Enclosures with a dust rating of 1 would protect against anything that is bigger than 50 mm, or 1.9 in.

On the other hand, enclosures that are fully dust-tight protect against any solid particles.

Enclosures with a liquid rating of 1 are effective against dripping water in an upright position, thus, they are protected against rain.

 Liquid rating of the IP code

Meanwhile, 9K enclosures are able to withstand pressurized jets of hot water.

There can be a zero marked, which means no protection.

There can also be an “X” mark, which usually means that any number can be put there.

There can be other lettered markings as well.

What does IP44 mean?

Enclosures rated with IP44 are protected against tools, small wires, and big ants larger than 1 mm, or 0.04 in, and from water spray from any direction.

What do the letters on IP codes mean?

As mentioned above the “X” means that there is no available information, or that it is irrelevant or replaceable.

There are 2 sets of optional letters you can add after the digits.

The first set: A, B, C, D, describes the protection of the enclosure against tampering.

A stands for protection against the back of a hand, B stands for protection against a finger, C stands for protection against access with a tool, while D stands for protection against access with a wire.

The second set of letters – H, M, S, W – tell the user what the enclosure is for.

H indicates that the enclosure is made for a high-voltage device, M indicates that the device inside the enclosure was moving during the water test, whereas S indicates that it was standing still.

Finally, W means that the enclosure is weather-proof.

 The full IP code

You can use these to indicate what features you want your IP44 enclosures to have.

Who sets IP standards?

The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) sets up IP standards, hence it is known as the IEC standard 60529.

How are IP enclosures tested?

For dust, various solid objects are pressed against the test subject.

With enclosures, vacuums are used for 8 hours, attracting all sorts of dust.

If by the end, no dust is found inside the enclosure, it is rated as dust-tight.

As for liquids, the test depends on the level of protection.

The testing can be with spray nozzles, oscillating tubes, tilting the enclosure, water jets, and submerging the enclosure under different depths and for different lengths of time.

 Spray nozzle testing

IP44 enclosures undergo this testing.

More specifically, IP4X is tested using a 1.0 mm access probe and by inspection to ensure any dust that enters would not interfere with the functionality of electrical components.

IPX4 is tested with spray nozzles with oscillating tubes for 5-10 minutes.

How can I be sure of the quality of KDM IP44 enclosures?

You can take a look at our certifications, such as the Bahasa Indonesia: ISO9001 certificate and the Tingkat IP66 certificate.

What NEMA type is IP44?

Adapun untuk Tidak ada komentar:, we offer any type, starting with 1 and up to 13, including subtypes, such as 3R. Our penutup NEMA terlindungi dari cuaca, korosi, rembesan minyak, dan banyak lagi.

IP ratings and NEMA types cannot be directly converted into one another, but they can be loosely compared as shown below.

 Perbandingan peringkat NEMA dan IP

IP44 does not have an exact comparison in NEMA types, but the closest ones would be types 12 and 13.

Is IP44 okay for outdoor applications?

IP44, just like our other IP enclosures, is suitable for outdoor application because it is protected against water sprays from any direction.

Just be mindful that the enclosure is not fully dust-tight and waterproof, so very dusty or marine environments may be too harsh for it. If you need that, check out our penutup IP65.

Where can IP44 enclosures be used and for what applications?

IP44 enclosures can be used both indoors and outdoors in non-hazardous environments, such as in the residential and commercial sectors.

Industrial sectors may need more heavy-duty protection, such as IP57 and up.

As for what can be housed in such enclosures, metering boxes is a common application.

Distribution boards, transformers, simple control panels, small telecom equipment, fuse blocks, power panels, as well as many more electrical components.

Can I request enclosure accessories?

You can request vents, windows, hinged doors, locks, cable management systems, and much more.

Ventilasi, as well as radiating fans, provide a path for heat to escape through, cooling electrical components of the enclosure. This prolongs their life and decreases the possibility of malfunctions.

Kipas yang memancarkan radiasi dalam suatu penutup

Ini juga menstabilkan tekanan udara di dalam kandang, mencegah kondensasi yang dapat merusak komponen listrik kandang.

Ditambah lagi, ventilasi dapat ditingkatkan lebih lanjut menjadi penyejuk udara dan penukar panas.

Jendela digunakan untuk membantu pekerja memeriksa komponen listrik dengan cara non-invasif.

And if something goes wrong, a window helps what is happening see right away.

Selain itu, jendela infra-merah membantu melindungi personel dari kilatan busur kecelakaan.

Fitur kecil lainnya termasuk kantong berkas.

Kantong arsip digunakan untuk menyimpan arsip seperti manual pengoperasian, catatan shift, buklet informasi, dan apa pun penting lainnya yang berkaitan dengan komponen kelistrikan di dalam wadah.

If your enclosure is intended for the outdoors, then the file pocket should be inside the enclosure, but if it is intended for the indoors, then it does not matter.

Kantong berkas (berwarna putih)

Sistem manajemen kabel seperti rangka dan klem entri kabel berfungsi untuk menjaga kabel tetap teratur dan membuatnya lebih mudah untuk dipasang dan dirawat.

Rangka entri kabel mengalihkan dan mengarahkan kabel masuk dan keluar dari penutup ke sumber luar.

Sementara itu, klem kabel menahan kabel pada tempatnya.

Dapat juga terdapat berbagai rak dan bundel jika terdapat banyak kabel.

We also offer light switches as well as enclosure lights, casters, thermostats, and heat strips that cool down your enclosure.

 Caster

Smaller accessories that you can request for IP44 enclosures include solar shields, rain caps, and lifting eyes.

Solar shields are basically another layer on top of an enclosure that reflect solar radiation, controlling inner temperature of the enclosure to prolong the life of its electrical components.

 Pelindung surya (pelat atas)

Penutup hujan merupakan bagian atas suatu penutup.

Mereka bisa datar, tetapi menonjol lebih dari penutupnya, atau bisa juga dimiringkan seperti atap.

Mereka membantu mengalihkan aliran air hujan dari penutup, sehingga bagian lainnya tidak terlalu terkena hujan.

Ini akan memperpanjang umur kandang Anda.

Topi hujan

Lifting eyes help with the installation and transfer of your enclosure.

Mereka adalah kait kecil di sudut-sudut penutup yang dapat Anda gunakan untuk mengangkatnya untuk diangkut atau dipasang.

Ini terutama berguna jika kandangnya sangat berat dan satu-satunya cara untuk mengangkutnya adalah dengan mengangkatnya.

Will additional features compromise the IP rating?

Yes, features like vents, windows, and locks do somewhat compromise the IP rating, but there are ways around it.

But KDM overcomes this difficulty, offering you some of the best enclosures for your business.

We incorporate various gaskets and filters to bring the IP rating back up.

What designs of IP44 enclosures can I choose from?

Designs for IP44 enclosures don’t differ from other enclosures we make.

Namely, we offer free-standing enclosures, floor-mounted, wall-mounted enclosures, pole-mounted enclosures, junction boxes, recessed enclosures, and custom enclosures.

Kandang yang berdiri sendiri are perfect for large electrical units that are too heavy to be wall-mounted or pole-mounted.

They could be of any height and width. They are also portable, and can be walk-in enclosures.

Kandang yang berdiri sendiri

Penutup yang dipasang di lantai sangat mirip dengan penutup yang berdiri sendiri, hanya saja penutup yang dipasang di lantai diamankan ke lantai – jadi, penutup ini tidak dapat dipindahkan.

Penutup yang dipasang di dinding gunakan braket pemasangan, sekrup, dan bantalan.

Cocok untuk perangkat kecil dan karenanya hemat biaya.

Kandang yang dipasang di dinding

Kandang yang dipasang di tiang tidak terlalu berbeda dengan yang terpasang di dinding.

Mereka juga menggunakan braket pemasangan, tetapi berbentuk cincin, ditempatkan di sekitar tiang.

 Pole-mounted enclosure

Junction boxes and operator interfaces are usually enclosures on a stand.

They have user-friendly layouts, are great for small electrical units, and can be portable.

Junction box enclosure

Penutup listrik tersembunyi dipasang ke dalam lubang di dinding atau lantai.

Desainnya bisa apa saja, tapi tersembunyi di suatu tempat, jadi hanya pintunya saja yang terlihat.

Tentu saja kami juga memiliki kandang khusus, which can be of any design, shape, and requirements.

Custom IP44 enclosure

Ditambah lagi, kami menawarkan berbagai pilihan pintu, termasuk pintu tunggal, pintu ganda, dan pintu ganda.

Pintu tunggal cocok untuk unit listrik yang lebih kecil dan kurang kompleks, sedangkan pintu ganda digunakan untuk unit yang besar dan rumit.

What materials are used for IP44 enclosures?

The materials used for IP44 enclosures aren’t different from materials used for other types of enclosures.

Mereka bisa dibuat dari baja karbon, baja galvanis, Dan baja tahan karat – biasanya kelas 304 atau 316L.

Ingatlah bahwa setiap orang mempunyai kualitas tertentu.

Baja karbon biasanya lebih kusam dibandingkan baja tahan karat.

Logam ini juga bersifat magnetis dan lebih mudah dibentuk karena hanya mengandung besi dan karbon.

Baja ini juga rentan terhadap korosi.

Baja tahan karat dibuat dengan menambahkan kromium, nikel, dan molibdenum ke paduan besi-karbon.

 Baja tahan karat vs. baja galvanis

Nilai 304 dan 316 berbeda dalam kandungan semua aditif.

Kelas 316 sedikit lebih kuat dan tahan terhadap air garam dan air asam.

Kelas 316L memiliki kandungan karbon yang lebih rendah, membuatnya sedikit lebih kuat.

Baja galvanis dilapisi dengan lapisan seng yang memberinya kualitas tahan korosi.

Meskipun kami menawarkan kandang baja galvanis, logam ini rentan terhadap air garam.

Harap dicatat bahwa baja galvanis lebih mahal dan lebih berat daripada baja tahan karat.

IP44 enclosures can also be made from aluminum alloys.

These can be either from the 5052 or 6061 alloy.

Aluminum vs stainless steel

Both are lightweight, but 5052 is more weldable, whereas 6061 has a higher resistance to corrosion.

Also, 6061 is more expensive.

Ditambah lagi, kita dapat menyertakan jendela yang terbuat dari polikarbonat, ABS, dan plastik yang diperkuat kaca seperti fiberglass.

Polikarbonat lebih tahan terhadap korosi, sedangkan ABS lebih murah.

Serat kaca sangat kuat, dapat menghilangkan panas, dan mengisolasi listrik, mengurangi efek interferensi dan kemungkinan sengatan listrik.

Terbuat dari serat kaca yang ditempatkan dalam plastik.

This seems like a lot, so send in your inquiry now for a consultation!

What paints and coatings can be used for IP44 enclosures?

Penutup kami terlindungi dengan baik, tetapi lapisan yang tepat juga dapat menambah perlindungannya.

Anda dapat memilih cat enamel atau bubuk dalam warna apa pun.

Cat enamel memiliki hasil akhir yang mengkilap dan tahan terhadap berbagai kondisi cuaca.

Cat enamel khusus seperti enamel epoksi dan enamel PU umumnya digunakan untuk penutup industri karena tahan terhadap korosi.

Cat bubuk diendapkan dengan gaya elektrostatik dan lebih cepat dan lebih mudah daripada enamel.

Tampilannya juga lebih fleksibel, memberi Anda pilihan hasil akhir mengilap dan matte.

 Powder coating finishes

We also offer anodizing and also dining coatings.

Anodisasi coating uses anodes to oxidize a metal, usually aluminum, to increase its thickness for better corrosion resistance.

Steel is not typically anodized because it can actually speed up the corrosion of the metal.

Alodine coating, also known as the chromate conversion coating, is used to prime steel and aluminum for paint, as well as prevent corrosion.

 Alodine coating

This is a cheaper process than anodizing and can be recognized by its distinctive greenish-yellow hue unless it is painted over.
