Introduction
The waterproof socket is a plug with waterproof performance and provides a safe and reliable connection of electricity, signals and the like. For example: LED street lights, LED drive power, LED display, lighthouse, cruise ship, industrial equipment, communication equipment, detection equipment, commercial plaza, highway, villa exterior, garden, park, etc., all need to use waterproof socket.
Waterproof standard
The main criterion for the waterproof performance of waterproof connectors is based on the ip waterproof rating standard. Look at the waterproof performance of the waterproof connector, mainly look at the two digits XX behind the IPXX, the first digit X is from 0 to 6, the highest level is 6; the second digit is from 0 to 8, the highest level is 8; The connector has a maximum waterproof rating of IP68.
Sealing principle: relies on up to 5 sealing rings and sealing rings to pre-tighten the pressure. This kind of sealing does not lose the pre-tightening force when the connector is inflated and contracted, and the waterproof effect is ensured for a long time, and water molecules cannot penetrate under normal pressure. (can work for a long time at less than 2M water depth)
Household outdoor waterproof socket, 220V 10A three-plug, two-plug can be used in non-protective state to meet the needs of households. (Protection level IP66 can meet the needs of the family, IP66 is violently sprayed in all directions without water, 1 meter in water soaked for 1 hour without water) Note that the outdoor socket is generally PC material, to consider anti-aging.
principle
Waterproof sockets are mainly made by sealing the water into the parts that need protection, including the use of seals, sealants, etc., or through special design structures (such as multi-layered barriers, etc.) to make water inaccessible. The auxiliary structure is provided with a drain hole so that the incoming water is discharged before reaching the portion requiring protection, which is usually achieved by providing a waterproof case.
