Water resistance of Polar products is tested according to International IEC 60529 IPx7 (1m, 30min, 20ºC). Products are divided into four different categories according to water resistance. Check the back of your Polar product for the water resistance category and compare it to the chart below. Please note that these definitions do not necessarily apply to products of other manufacturers.
Water Resistance
Water proof IPX7* Not suitable for bathing or swimming. Protected against wash splashes and raindrops. Do not wash with a pressure washer.
Water resistant** Not suitable for swimming. Protected against wash splashes, sweat, raindrops etc. Do not wash with a pressure washer.
Water resistant 30 m/50 m*** Suitable for bathing and swimming
Water resistant 100 m Suitable for swimming and snorkeling (without air tanks)
* Polar CS500+ cycling computer and Polar LOOK Kéo Power system
** CS speed sensor W.I.N.D. and CS cadence sensor W.I.N.D.
*** Polar H3 heart rate sensor is water resistant 30 m, but it does not measure heart rate in water.
