Waterproof Scales and IP Conditions Explained

Waterproof scales are vital if your business intends to weigh liquids, operate in damp or fine surroundings or weigh outside. This helpful companion aims to explain what IP conditions are, and how they ’re used, so that buying your new marshland-down scale will be as easy as using it.

IP Conditions – What do they mean?

IP conditions may be confusing, especially when appertained to as‘Ingress Protection’or‘International Protection marking’. But it does n’t have to be delicate. Put simply, IP conditions are used to measure an item’s resistance to liquids and patches.
An IP standing generally appears as the letters‘IP’’ followed by two figures, similar as IP44, IP65 and IP67. The integers in the IP standing relate to a different type of protection. The first number refers to how defended the instrument is to smoke, and the alternate number is how defended the scale is to water and other liquids.

Then we explain our FOUR major order which are IP68, IP67, IP66 and IP65.

IP68 Standing

What separates the IP68-rated scales from other Hindustan Scales IP scales is that these scales are completely leakproof. These scales can be submerged in water and survive-a point not participated in by IP67 and IP66 scales.
These scales can be used in even the most stringent environments; their long-lasting nature allows them to be kept clean and sanitary because they can be hosed down.
The Hsco ABSMWR and ABSWR scales are our IP68-rated scales.

IP67 Standing

The IP67-rated importing scales are nearly as leakproof as their IP68-rated scales.
The IP67 covering means these scales are defended against humidity; thus, they can be kept aseptic by being washed down. The main difference between IP68 and IP67 scales is that IP68 bias can be submerged in over 1 m of water for a duration of time, whereas IP67 bias can be submerged in under 1 m of water for a duration of time of 30 twinkles.

IP66 Standing

An IP66-rated scale is defended against multi-directional, high-pressure water spurts.
The IP66 covering means these scales are protected against humidity; thus, they can be kept aseptic by being washed down. To pass IP66 testing, the institution must be suitable to repel water projected from a 0.50-inch snoot and multi-directional high-pressure spurts. with a water volume of 26.4 gallons per nanosecond and a pressure of 100 kPa.

The main difference between IP67 and IP66 scales is that IP67 bias can be submerged in over 1 m of water for a duration of 30 twinkles, whereas IP66 bias can be defended against water spurts from any direction. Then there are just some of the IP66 rated scales.
As an illustration, our water resistance scale series.

IP65 Standing

The IP65-rated scales have protection from humidity and can be washed down using hoses.
These scales are ideal for surroundings which are sticky or have some water vapour present – such as bakeries. Although IP65 bias can be washed away, they cannot be submerged in water for an extended period of time.our scales are minimal IP65 rated. This can be used in supermarkets, food factories, and granges.
All of our scales are IP65-rated.


We created a useful IP conditions chart to explain this in further depth.
It’s recommended that you consider your business and choose a standing that adequately covers your requirements. Marsden offers a range of Waterproof scales, ranging from IP68, IP67, IP66, and IP65.
