Solenoid coils Ingress Protection Rating (IP class)



Solenoid coil IP Ratings

Solenoid coil IP or Ingress Protection are the ratings as prescribed by the EN60529 international standard and BS EN 60529:1992 and Eurozone IEC 60509:1989. The are used to define the levels of electrical sealing effectiveness of electrical enclosures against ingress or intrusion of external foreign bodies such as hands, fingers, tools, electrical wire, dust and water or moisture.

The first number relates to mechanical penetration and the second number is the moisture penetration - the higher the number the greater the protection. .



 Degrees of Protection To DIN 40050 (IP):

 Example - IP65 6 = First code letter, 5 = Second code letter
First Code letter: Degrees of protection against contact with foreign matter

0 - No protection of the equipment against the penetration of solid foreign matter
1 - Protection against large foreign matter over than 50mm
2 - Protection against medium sized foreign matter over than 12.5mm
3 - Protection against fine foreign matter over 2.5mm
4 - Protection against granular dust deposits over 1.0mm
5 - Dust production
6 - Dust Tight

Second Code Letter: Degrees of protection against water ingress

0 - No protection
1 - Protection against dripping water falling vertically
2 - Protection against water drops falling diagonally
3 - Protection against spraying water
4 - Protection against splashing water from any direction
5 - Protection against jets of water from any direction
6 - Protected against powerful water jets from any direction
7 - Protected against temporary immersion in water
8 - Protected against the effect of submersion


Example

Typical examples of IP protection are IP54 = dust protection and water splashing from any direction or IP65 dust tight and protected from water jests from any direction. IP68

XHnotion coil usually have three IP rating, they are safe and reliable

1) 2W coil, IP54, mostly used for Asia and USA market, lead wire connection
                                               

2. 2N coil, IP65, mostly used for Europe market, DIN connection

3. UW coil, IP68, used for fountains. It has a long wires to protect from water.

The difference between pneumatic meter out and meter in throttle valve

Image
Throttle valve is called speed controller or flow control valve. They are usually positioned near to air cylinder to control the speed of air cylinder. Feature as below 1. Mainly installed in the air actuator. 2. Working Pressure: 0-150 Psi. 3. Working Temperature: 32 -140°F / 0-60℃ Meter Out throttle valve The flow rate of air entering from the thread side can be controlled, whereas air entering from joint side comes out from the thread side at the same flow rate (not controlled). Meter in throttle valve The flow rate of air entering from the joint side can be controlled, whereas air entering from thread side come out from joint side at the same speed (not controlled). Flat type flow control valve The way to control of flow or control flow upon piping in accordance with the signal on the body. Air flows from each side of valve.

When you talk about the biggest sector in the world in terms of dollar value, the oil and gas industry is a global powerhouse employing over hundreds of thousands of workers worldwide as well as generating huge amount in billions of dollars globally each year. The oil and gas companies are so vital they often contribute a significant amount towards national GDP and this great success cannot be achieved without exploration, extraction, refining, transporting, and marketing of end products which is vital to many industries, and is of high significance to critically take certain measures to preserving this process of great value starting from timely maintenance schedule, dual routine checks and streamed down replacement of some essential devices like the  Solenoid Valves . But what exactly is a Solenoid Valve? Solenoid valves  are devices electromechanically operated with the use of a solenoid to change the state of a valve from open to close to control the flow liquid ...
