To make the difference, Swap IP54 reaches a high
sealing level, maintaining at the same time the same
aesthetics as a standard Swap. The insulating
property is obtained thanks to a protection placed
just over the LED, and a silicone joint on the internal
part of the bezel. In this way, the external aspect of
Swap IP54 is identical to any other Swap IP20.
Swap offers the possibility of requesting any of its
models with IP54-rated weather resistance, which
converts it into an optimal luminaire to be installed
in atmospheres where the product may suffer
from the impact of water or frequent presence
of humidity.
Level IP54 guarantees that Swap is able to prevent
the ingress of any dust particle that might prevent
its normal operation and that it is also able to
prevent the filtration of water, projected from any
angle, when subject to a flow volume of 10 litres
per minute (at a pressure of 80-100 kN/m²)
for at least 5 minutes.

The IP protection grading specifies the different protection levels
afforded by the enclosures that protect the components of electrical
or electronic equipment. The higher the IP protection grade, the more
protected is the equipment.
An IPXY protection grade indicates the following:
X – Describes the protection level against dust and other particles.
0: No protection.
1: 50 mm particles cannot ingress.
2: 12.5mm particles cannot ingress.
3: 2.5mm particles cannot ingress.
4: 1mm particles cannot ingress.
5: Protection against ingress of dust.
Y – Describes the protection level against liquids. The maximum Y value is 8.
0: No protection.
1: Protection against dripping water.
2: Protection against dripping water, in more demanding test conditions.
3: Protection against spraying water.
4: Protection against water jets.
5: Protection against water jets, in more demanding test conditions.
6: Protection against more powerful water jets.
7: Full immersion in water.
8: Full continuous immersion in water.
