Seeed Studio boxes with an IP rating for shop-floor dust protection

Asked as: “Which Seeed Studio boxes have an IP rating? Need some dust protection on a shop floor.”

Answered by the Rapidflare agent

Seven Seeed Studio boxes in the catalog carry an IP rating, but only two are truly built for dust on a shop floor — the reComputer Rugged models, both IP66 rated, which means they're fully dust-tight and protected against strong water jets . The other five are the reComputer Industrial line, all rated IP40 — that protects against objects over 1 mm but leaves them open to fine dust, so they're a poor fit for your environment . seeedstudi... +2seeedstudio.com ↗“IP66 ruggedized edge box”seeedstudio.com ↗“IP66 ruggedized edge box”seeedstudio.com ↗“mechanical.ip_rating=IP40”

Best for dust protection (IP66):

If dust protection is the deciding factor, the reComputer Rugged J4012 (Orin NX, higher performance) and Rugged J3011 (Orin Nano, lower performance) are the ones to look at — both are fanless, sealed with M12 connectors, and rated for -20 to 60 °C operation . seeedstudi... +1seeedstudio.com ↗“thermal.cooling=Fanless”seeedstudio.com ↗“thermal.cooling=Fanless”
