PROTECTION GRADES
The protection grade indicates the suitability of electrical equipment (such as devices, luminaires and installation materials) for various environmental conditions.Protected systems are classified into corresponding protection grades, known as IP codes, based on their suitability for different environmental conditions.
The luminaires we supply are manufactured, tested and approved in accordance with the DIN VDE 0711 EN60598 standard. This ensures high quality and durability, provided that installation is carried out in compliance with the DIN VDE0100 standard.
Ambient temperature for luminaires in accordance with DIN VDE0711: 25°C
