Impact resistance testing: IK code

Impact resistance testing according to iec/en 62262 standard

The IEC/EN 62262 standard defines a coding system, the IK code, to indicate the level of protection provided by an enclosure of electrical equipment against external mechanical impacts (impact resistance IK).

 

IK code table:

 

Symbol Description
IK 00 no protection.
IK 01 resistant to impacts with an energy up to 0.150 J
IK 02 resistant to impacts with an energy up to 0,200 J
IK 03 resistant to impacts with an energy up to 0,350 J
IK 04 resistant to impacts with an energy up to 0,500 J
IK 05 resistant to impacts with an energy up to 0,700 J
IK 06 resistant to impacts with an energy up to 1,00 J
IK 07 resistant to impacts with an energy up to 2,00 J
IK 08 resistant to impacts with an energy up to 5,00 J
IK 09 resistant to impacts with an energy up to 10,00 J
IK 10 resistant to impacts with an energy up to 20,00 J
IK 11 resistant to impacts with an energy up to 50,00 J
