Understanding IP Ratings
Proper use and installation of an NI cDAQ-9181/9191 chassis in an NI 9925 outdoor IP54
enclosure provides a minimum IP rating of IP54 from outdoor and industrial environments. An
IP rating of IP54 protects against entry by dust particles and splashing water from all directions.
The two-digit ingress protection (IP) rating is defined by the IEC 60529 standard and specifies
the degree to which the enclosures protects against entry of dust (represented by the first digit)
and splashing water (represented by the second digit), as shown in Table 2.
