In demanding automotive and industrial environments, equipment must withstand exposure to dust, water jets, and high-pressure cleaning. ISO 20653 IP testing defines protection levels for electrical enclosures against solid particles and water ingress, specifically for road vehicle applications.
At ITC India, we provide precise and reliable testing for IP5K, IP6K, and IP9K ratings, ensuring your products meet international protection standards and perform reliably in real-world conditions.

Understanding ISO 20653 IP Ratings
ISO 20653 is specifically designed for automotive components and differs slightly from IEC IP standards by including high-pressure and high-temperature water testing (IP9K).
Our ISO 20653 Testing Capabilities
🔹 IP5K Testing (Dust Protected)
This test evaluates the enclosure’s ability to resist dust ingress without affecting normal operation. Limited dust entry is allowed, but it must not interfere with performance.
🔹 IP6K Testing (Dust Tight)
Ensures complete protection against dust ingress. This is critical for components operating in extremely dusty environments such as construction, mining, and off-road applications.
🔹 IP9K Testing (High-Pressure, High-Temperature Water Jets)
Simulates intense cleaning conditions using high-pressure and high-temperature water jets from multiple angles. Commonly required for automotive parts exposed to frequent washdowns.
