IpClass provides the degree of protection provided by the enclosure (according to DIN EN 60529). The values of the MultiStateValueDiscreteType variable are defined in Table 153 and shall be used. The values 0-199 are reserved for future extensions of this specification. The values 200-299 shall be used for vendor-specific extensions of this variable.

The ExClass provides the information to the type of explosive protection (according to DIN EN IEC 60079-0). Value examples:

  • Ex ta (Protection by enclosure Ex t, Category 1 EPL a, very high level of protection)
  • Ex eb (Increased safety Ex e, Category 2 EPL b, high level of protection)
  • Ex ic (Intrinsic safety Ex i, Category 3 EPL c, normal level of protection)
