Outdoor digital signage: facing, IP rating and thermal design before you order

Outdoor displays fail more often from climate and facing mistakes than from a wrong pixel pitch. This checklist mirrors what we ask on Claronix outdoor programmes (32″–98″ freestanding, wall-mounted and double-sided) before a quote locks.

1. Facing and sun load come first

Tell us the city, whether the face sees full sun or sits under a canopy, and which way the screen points. The same panel can sit inside its rated −20 °C to +68 °C window and still overheat in a sealed box that faces west all afternoon. That is why we publish three thermal designs on the outdoor product page and ask for facing before recommending one.

2. Ingress you can verify

Our outdoor enclosure programmes are specified for IP6X dust and IPX5 water, with laminated anti-glare glass. Peak brightness on the outdoor builds is published as 3,000 / 5,000 nits across LCD and LED. Bring the local rain / dust profile and we match the enclosure — not a generic “waterproof” claim.

3. Mounting height and wind load

Freestanding units use a weighted base; wall-mounted and double-sided programmes need fixings sized to the cabinet mass and the site wind zone. We do not publish a single generic wind class for every height. Send preferred mounting height with the RFQ; the structural / fixings pack comes back with the quote. More context: Outdoor application page.

4. Transport and on-site access

Enclosures ship in project packaging (crate or pallet as quoted). Confirm loading gauge, lift points and doorway clearance before the unit leaves the line — especially for 75″–98″ freestanding totems.
