Weatherproof to IP66

The IP rating system in brief:

- IP stands for Ingress Protection.

- The rating’s first digit (IP66) relates to the ingress protection against dust.

- The second digit (IP66) relates to the ingress protection against water.

A lot of housings on the market are rated IP65 or even lower (IP54). IP65 has been the industry standard since the CCTV boom but some leading manufacturers have been upgrading to IP66 in recent years. IP54 housings should not be used in outdoor conditions although many installers do so.

Operating Environment

The 290A Outdoor housing can be used in ambient temperatures ranging from –20 to +42 degrees C.

If possible the housing should be mounted in the shade.

If the housing is mounted in direct sunlight the ambient temperature range is –20 to +35 degrees C.

Wall mounting Bracket.
