What Does IPX7 Mean?

Definition: IPX7 covers temporary immersion (not prolonged submersion), typically 1 m for 30 minutes.


Relation to IPX5/6: Water ingress ratings are not cumulative beyond IPX6; devices that meet both jet and immersion tests are indicated separately (e.g., IPX5/IPX7).

Engineering Highlights

System-Level Sealing: Multi-layer gaskets and sealing for battery housing, controller, wiring, and connectors.


Port & Switch Protection: Raised, capped ports reduce ingress risk.


Drainage & Splash Control: Fenders and underbody channels mitigate tire spray.

Use & Care

After Rain: Wipe the scooter dry, especially seams, charge port, switches, and connectors.


Charging Safety: Power/charge only when fully dry.


Routine Checks: Inspect gaskets and fasteners periodically.

Cautions

No Pressure-Washer/Steam Cleaning, which can compromise seals.


No Prolonged Submersion or Deep Water: IPX7 ≠ continuous underwater use.


Fresh Water Only: IPX7 is specified in fresh-water conditions, not salt/corrosive liquids.
