What Are IP68 Automatic Bollards?
IP68 automatic bollards are retractable security bollards designed with components that achieve an IP68 ingress protection rating, helping protect critical electrical or mechanical assemblies from dust ingress and prolonged water exposure when installed according to their rated specifications.
Compared with standard outdoor bollards, IP68 models offer enhanced environmental protection, making them suitable for locations exposed to heavy rain, flooding, snow, road salt, and dust.
Note: The IP68 rating applies to designated components or assemblies that are designed and tested to meet the specified protection level. The overall system performance also depends on correct installation, drainage design, and maintenance.
