Denition IP65 / IP67

ed against water jet that is projected by a nozzle striking the housing from any direction.
IP67 stands for dust tightness besides the protection against submersion into 1 meter
deep water for up to 30 minutes. The desired protection level is given as long as the

a temperature of 15 °C (+ 59 °F) ... 35 °C (+ 95 °F).
