Weatherproof to IP66

The IP rating system in brief:

- IP stands for Ingress Protection.
- The ratings first digit (IP66) relates to the ingress
protection against dust.
- The second digit (IP66) relates to the ingress
protection against water.
A lot of housings on the market are rated IP65 or even
lower (IP54). IP65 has been the industry standard since
the CCTV boom but some leading manufacturers have
been upgrading to IP66 in recent years. IP54 housings
should not be used in outdoor conditions although
many installers do so.

Operating Environment

The 290A Outdoor housing can be used in

ambient temperatures ranging from 20 to +42
degrees C.
If possible the housing should be mounted in
the shade.
If the housing is mounted in direct sunlight the
ambient temperature range is 20 to +35
degrees C.

Wall mounting Bracket.

tamper resistance (Laws & regulations may
require hidden cables at reachable heights).
