IP67, What Does That Mean?
There has always been considerable confusion regarding the rating systems for ruggedized Pocket PCs. If a unit is described as
meeting a particular standard, that can be helpful in making a decision as to which Pocket PC to purchase, depending on the
users needs. This white paper will discuss two rating systems, the IP system and the MIL-STD-810. This is only a brief summary.
Please review additional sources if you need a more complete definition of either standard.
IP Ratings: (Ingress Protection or International Protection) - The Ingress Protection rating system is a classification
system showing the degrees of protection from solid objects and liquids. The first number refers to the protection
against solid objects, normally dust in relation to testing Pocket PCs. If the first number is 0, there is no protection
provided. A number 5 refers to limited protection against dust. The number 6 is for total protection against dust.
The second number of the IP rating system refers to protection against liquids. A indicates no protection, while a
7 refers to protection against immersion between 15 centimeters and 1 meter. The following two tables give the protection
descriptions.
IP First number - Protection against solid objects
IP Second number - Protection against liquids
Most environmentally sealed Pocket PCs are rated IP67. They are protected from dust and capable of withstanding water immersion
between 15 cm and 1 meter for 30 minutes.

0 No special protection
1 Protection against accidental touch by hands
2 Protection against objects such as fingers
3 Protection against tools and wires
4 Protection against tools, wires, small wires
5 Limited protection against dust
6 Protected from dust
0 No Protection
1 Protection against vertically dropping condensation
2 Protection against direct sprays of water up to 15 degrees from vert.
3 Protection against direct sprays of water up to 60 degrees from vert.
4 Protection from sprays of water in all directions. Limited water ingress permitted
5 Protection from low pressure jets of water in all directions. Limited water ingress permitted
6 Nearly the same as # 5, except for ship decks
7 Protected against the effects of immersion in water to depth between 15 cm and 1 meter
The MIL-STD-810 series of standards are issued by the United States Army's Developmental Test Command, to
specify various environmental tests to simulate conditions that the tested item will encounter in the field. The current
revision, as of 2006, is revision F, issued January 1, 2000, superseding revision E from 1989.
MIL-STD810 E refers to the type of testing that mobile gear is put through to determine its ruggedness. Rugged
mobile gear will state that it is MIL-STD810 E rated or may say it is MIL-STD810 F compliant. They both mean
the same level of ruggedness is applicable. MIL-STD810 F is just a revision of MIL-STD810 E and applies more
to the testing process rather than the resulting rating.
MIL-STD810 E and F are the highest standard for ruggedized testing for mobile gear. Always check for this testing
result when looking at mobile gear that is labeled as "rugged". There are 24 categories which are tested and all
must obtain the MIL-STD810 E/F rating to be considered rugged.
The 24 categories are as follows:
· Low Pressure (Altitude)
· High Temperature
· Low Temperature
· Temperature Shock
· Contamination by Fluids
· Solar Radiation (Sunshine)
· Rain Method
· Humidity
· Fungus
· Salt Fog
· Sand and Dust
· Explosive Atmosphere
· Immersion
· Acceleration
· Vibration
· Acoustic Noise
· Shock
· Pyroshock
· Acidic Atmosphere
· Gunfire Vibration
· Temperature, Humidity, Vibration, and Altitude
· Icing/Freezing Rain
· Ballistic Shock
Vibro-Acoustic/Temperature
These categories are tested to determine the environmental worthiness and durability of a design. There are guidelines
for each phase of testing in all categories.
All mobile gear to be tested are first run under normal conditions to ensure that they do operate properly and to set
a baseline performance.
Tests are conducted in natural environments or in laboratories in simulated conditions. When possible a combination
of testing environments is used.
As an example of the rating systems being used, the following image shows the ratings for the Nomad 800
Series Pocket PCs.
It lists the IP67 rating plus the specific tests done under the MIL-STD-810F systems.
At a minimum, all environmentally sealed Pocket PCs used in the field should be shock resistant, water
submersible, and dust proof.

xperiapower , 29 Aug 2012This is a Guarantee this mobile is Incredible Hulk http... moreEverone keeps pointing to that vid, but the problem with that vid is that they never did a real drop/shock test to the phone - as in drop in on a concrete surface from 1m or above, not on a grass field! -.- Yeah they did have a car running over it, but weight pressure and sudden impact are 2 different things. Also they never show if the back cover was scratched after those tests.

Hi. Is the plastic body texture of xperia go feels rough to hold?(like sand paper). I read from other review sites that its plastic body has a rough texture? Is it true? Is xperia go good for watching movies despite its low resoluion and dpi? Thanks

How would the warranty work with that if they claim its ip67 and it gets water damage? provided there is no physical damage or loose parts on the case?
Also when do stores get this is uk? work in a phone shop but no signs of getting it in stock :(
all we got recently was crappy xperia tipo

it not drop proof..of you drop it on the surface like concrete.of course it will have a little damage aside,.so,dont even drop your phone on the rough surface because it only water proof n dust proof.not drop proof.:-)

I've seen YT video by German's A1 magazine which is quite unbelievable. Do it at your own risk!
Stop the confusion! Ingress Protection IP67 states that the "6" stands for total protection against the dust. The "7" stands for protection against the effect of immersion between 15 cm and 1 meter.
I don't understand why people is believing IP67 includes protection against shock/fall/break for xperia go? The mineral glass is only scratch-resistant but it is still breakable. The top and bottom shell are made of plastic which is also breakable under extreme condition on hard surfaces.
I have one for my wife and I only treat it as an affordable Android smartphone that can avoid silly blunders.
