Industrial applications, IP protection must be considered:
For outdoor systems (automotive) IP65 protection is recommended. Anti-dust and anti-water.
On the outdoor warehouse forklift system should not be used IP20 protection
Level measurement, using the control system of IP67
Not all systems provide a high level of protection is no problem at all, high water proof usually requires installation completely sealed, this will cause cooling problems. System errors caused by overheating may occur. Therefore, the need for additional cooling devices.
