peer agreement (net): +1índice de resistência mecânica Explanation: "IK XX Índice Resistência Mecânica - Grau de resistência dos invólucros das luminárias a impactos mecânicos externos, definidos pela norma EN 62262. Mechanical Resistance Classes - Resistance degree of the luminaires envelope against external mechanical impacts, defined by EN 62262 standards." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 27 mins (2018-01-03 09:33:12 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Pela definição abaixo, creio que "grau de proteção contra impacto" poderia ser uma tradução alternativa. "IK and IP Testing for Lighting Products Ratings that demonstrate the degree of Impact Protection (IK) and Ingress Protection (IP) are critical for street, roadway and other lighting products. IP ratings are required per IEC/EN 60598-2-3 for all roadway and street applications. IK ratings are required in specific applications when high impact glass provides protection for the enclosed lamp." https://industries.ul.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2013/09...

| IK [Iluminação - "IK elevado"] IK Code - high IK rating Explanation: high IK rating http://www.standardpro.com/cracking-the-ik-code/ Cracking the IK Code Posted in Our Online Journal, The basics of Lighting. Last updated August 24, 2017. The international “IK Code” measures the degree of protection against mechanical wear and tear, it is also a means to characterise the amount of impact a specific product can take. Before the advent of the IK code, a third numeral had been occasionally been added to the closely related IP Code on ingress protection to indicate the level of impact protection (EX: IP66(9)). The use of this system was not standardized; this is one of the factors that lead to the development of the IK standard, which uses a separate two numeral code to distinguish it from the old systems. = = = = = Impact Protection (IK) Rating Degrees of protection provided by enclosures for electrical equipment against external mechanical impacts in accordance with IEC 62262:2002 and IEC 60068-2-75:1997. http://www.deggy.com/ip_ik_rating.html https://blog.use-ip.co.uk/first-home-security-system-part-4-... Unsurprisingly, those cameras that are designed with vandal resistance in mind, particularly dome cameras, come with a very high IK rating, and are as such very hard to damage even with hard tools or implements. bom trabalho no Ano Novo, tipo iluminado! beatriz_souza |
