Gearmotors Designed for Demanding Environments

IP-rated-gearmotors

When your design must run flawlessly in harsh environments, Bodine gearmotors designed for higher IP ratings can handle the job. Ideal for demanding outdoor applications as well as food processing and pharmaceutical equipment, our extensive line of AC, DC, and brushless DC products with IP ratings of IP-44 through IP-69K perform where other gearmotors fail.Talk to an Application Engineer.

What are IP Ratings

The Ingress Protection (IP) rating is a measure of how a gearmotor is affected by water and solid particles. They usually have two numbers: the first indicates the level of protection against solid material, the second against liquids. IP ratings are determined by the international standard EN 60529 (British BS EN 60529: 1992 – Degrees of protection provided by enclosures (IP Code) and European IEC 60509: 1989 – Degrees of protection provided by enclosures (IP Code).


Example: A gearmotor that is rated IP-69K is dust tight and is protected from close-range, high-pressure, high-temperature water jets.

Solid Protection

 

0 Non protected.
bodine brushes 1 Protected against a solid object greater than 500 mm, such as a hand.
bodine brushes 2 Protected against a solid object greater than 12 mm, such as a finger.
bodine brushes 3 Protected against a solid object greater than 2.5 mm, such as a screwdriver.
bodine brushes 4 Protected against a solid object greater than 1 mm, such as most screws and wires.
bodine brushes 5 Dust protected. Prevents ingress of dust sufficient to cause harm.
bodine brushes 6 Dust tight. No ingress of dust.

Water Protection

 

0 Non protected.
bodine brushes 1 Protected against vertical dripping water. .
bodine brushes 2 Protected against vertical dripping water when tilted up 15°.
bodine brushes 3 Protected against spraying water at an angle of 60°.
bodine brushes 4 Protected against splashes of water at any angle.
bodine brushes 5 Protected against low pressure water jets from any direction.
bodine brushes 6 Protected against high pressure water jets from any direction.
bodine brushes 7 Protected against the effects of immersion in water between 15cm and 1m for 30 minutes.
bodine brushes 8 Protected against the effects of immersion in water under pressure for long periods.
bodine brushes 9 Protected from close-range, high-pressure, high-temperature water jets.
