IP (Ingress Protection) rating
Your device has an IP rating, which means it has undergone certified tests to
measure its resistance levels to both dust and water. The first digit in the two-digit IP
rating indicates the level of protection against solid objects, including dust. The
second digit indicates how resistant the device is to water. The higher the numbers,
the higher the respective protection.
The IP ratings of your device are IPX5, IPX7 and IP5X. This means that your device is
dust protected and is protected against the effects of immersion and low pressure
water stream. So you can use the device in extreme weather conditions, for example,
when it's snowing or raining, or when humidity levels are high. You can also use the
device in dusty or sandy environments, and when your fingers are wet. See the table
for more details.
