What is the range of IK ratings?

IK ratings measure the degree of protection an enclosure provides against mechanical impacts, specifically how well it can withstand shocks and strikes. The IK code ranges from IK00 to IK10, with IK01 indicating minimal impact resistance and IK10 representing the highest level of protection recognized internationally.

The correct range for IK ratings is indeed IK01-IK10. However, the concept of "IK10+" suggests an additional level beyond the highest standard, which is not officially recognized.

The range of IK ratings doesn't extend to IK12 or IK20 as these values are beyond the standardized measurement of impact resistance established by the IEC standard. Therefore, recognizing the highest level being IK10 is crucial for understanding the context of impact protection in various devices, such as those used in surveillance and security applications.
