Protection IP68 (IEC), IP68g (JEM) (Note) Panasonic Electric Works SUNX's IP68 test method 1. Immerse at 0 m below 0 ℃ +32 ℉ water surface and leave for 30 min. Then, immerse at 0 m below +70 ℃ +158 ℉ water surface and leave for 30 min. 2. Regard the heat shock test in 1 as one cycle and perform 20 cycles. 3. Leave in water at a depth of 1 m 3.281 ft in water for 500 hours. 4. After tests 1 to 3, insulation resistance, voltage withstandability, current consumption, and sensing ranges must meet the standard values. (Note) If using the sensor in an environment where cutting oil droplets splatter, the sensor may be deteriorated due to added substances in the oil.
