# Dust, dirt and water protection for ECR motors

## Explaining the enclosure rating for ECR motors.

![icon\_motor](https://support.aofrio.com/hs-fs/hubfs/icon_motor.png?width=142&height=142&name=icon_motor.png)A motor’s ability to keep out water, dust, or debris is determined by its enclosure rating. These ratings are defined by IEC standard 60529, with higher numbers corresponding to greater levels of protection.

Wellington’s ECR 2 motors feature an IP67 level of protection. This means it is dust-proof and can operate while immersed in up to 1m of water for up to 30 minutes.
