IP65 vs IP67 vs IP68: How to Choose the Right Protection Level for Industrial Sensors
When selecting industrial instrumentation, many engineers focus on accuracy, communication protocols, and measurement range. However, one critical specification is often overlooked: Ingress Protection (IP) Rating. An incorrectly selected protection level can result in premature equipment failure, water ingress, corrosion, downtime, and increased maintenance costs. Whether you are installing sensors in a wastewater treatment plant, chemical facility, river monitoring station, or outdoor storage tank, understanding IP ratings is essential. This guide explains the differences between IP65, IP67, and IP68 protection levels and how to choose the right sensor for your application. What Does an IP Rating Mean? IP stands for Ingress...
