Frequently Asked Questions

What does the IP69K rating signify?

IP69K is the highest Ingress Protection rating, ensuring products withstand high-pressure, high-temperature washdowns and are dust-tight.

Where are IP69K products typically used?

They are ideal for Food and Beverage, Wastewater, Pharmaceutical, Marine, Medical Facilities, and Medical Equipment Manufacturing applications.

How do IP69K products protect against water and dust?

IP69K products protect against close-range, powerful, high-temperature water jets and prevent any ingress of dust.

What tests do IP69K products undergo?

Products are dust-tight tested and subjected to high-pressure steam jet cleaning at 1160–1450 psi and 176°F (80°C) from multiple angles.

What certifications do Federal Signal IP69K products have?

Products meet or exceed UL, CSA, CSFM, IECEx, and other global certifications. Federal Signal is also ISO 9001 Certified.

Is the 225XST-I suitable for hazardous locations?

Yes, the 225XST and 225XST-I Electraray® Strobe Lights are classified for hazardous location applications.

What are the benefits of using IP69K rated products?

IP69K products reduce failures from water/dust ingress, increasing productivity and decreasing production downtime.

How does IP69K differ from NEMA Type 4?

IP69K protects against close-range, high-pressure, high-temperature water jets. NEMA Type 4 protects from high volume, low pressure water at longer distances.
