What are the uses and classification of the waterproof industrial socket profile?

A waterproof socket is a plug-and-socket connection body with a waterproof function and can provide a safe and reliable connection of electricity and signals.

Uses: civil, LED street lights, LED drive power, LED display screens, lighthouses, cruise ships, industrial equipment, communication equipment, detection equipment, etc., all need to use waterproof sockets.

Classification: There are many brands and types of waterproof sockets on the market, including traditional waterproof sockets for domestic life. For example, the triangular plug number can be called a socket, but it is generally not waterproof. So how is the waterproof socket determined, the waterproof measurement is IP, and the current waterproof rating is IP68. There are four types according to the waterproof grade: no waterproof (below IP44), splash-proof (IP44-IP66), completely waterproof (above IP66), and buried waterproof (IP68).

Appraisal specification: The primary appraisal specification for the waterproof function of the waterproof connector is based on the ip waterproof rating specification. Look at the waterproof function of the waterproof adapter. The first two digits of the IPXX are XX. The first X is from 0 to 6, with a rating of 6; the second digit is from 0 to 8, with a rating of 8; therefore, the waterproof connector is waterproof The rating is IP68. Sealing principle: Rely on up to 5 seal rings and seal rings to pre-seal with pressure. This kind of seal will not lose the pretension force when the connector expands and contracts, and it will guarantee the waterproof effect for a long time. The water molecules cannot penetrate under ordinary pressure. (It can work for a long time at a depth of less than 2M)

What are the advantages of waterproof plugs?

The mechanical strength of the waterproof plug is high. Because the shell is made of plastic with a special process, it can not only receive strong impact and slow aging but also have an inevitable flame retardant effect. Not only can it be used indoors, but it can also work in the open air for a lo...
