peer agreement (net): +1splashes / waterproof Explanation: IP 65-67 seems to be a type/class/degree of protection Degree of protection IP 65/67 permits local installation, thus significantly reducing tubing and wiring, What previously had to be wired individually in the cabinet with a large number of control lines which made cabinet after cabinet of jumper panels and endless clamping units necessary – now all hangs on one cable, locally with a high degree of protection (splash protection/IP 65/67). Features of the Optalign® Plus include IP 65/67 durability rating (water proof, dust proof, shock proof); chorro is normally a jet or stream of liquid, and perhaps the writer in your context does want to emphasise that instead of it just being waterproof, or splashes (chorretón/salpicadura), but I couldn't find any evidence of this being used in Google Reference: http://www.sea.siemens.com/automat/product/net/asi/auasiov.h...
