Waterproof connector is a device used to provide reliable electrical connections in humid, polluted, rainy and other environments. According to the design and structure of connectors, waterproof connectors can be divided into several common types:
1. Sealed connectors: Sealed connectors use sealing materials such as rubber sealing rings or sealing tape to protect the interior of the connector from moisture and contaminants. Sealed joints are suitable for relatively mild humid environments, but not for environments that are completely immersed in water or high-pressure water spray.
2. Threaded connectors: Threaded connectors use threaded structures to ensure tight connections and prevent moisture from seeping in. These joints are usually made of metal and can provide high waterproof performance, suitable for harsh environmental conditions.
3. Threaded connectors: Threaded connectors use threaded structures to ensure tight connections and prevent moisture from seeping in. These joints are usually made of metal and can provide high waterproof performance, suitable for harsh environmental conditions.
4. Compression connectors: Compression connectors use pressure to compress the sealing material inside the connector to achieve waterproof effect. This type of connector is commonly used in outdoor cable connections and underground power transmission lines, and has high water resistance and corrosion resistance.
5. Compression connectors: Compression connectors use pressure to compress the sealing material inside the connector to achieve waterproof effect. This type of connector is commonly used in outdoor cable connections and underground power transmission lines, and has high water resistance and corrosion resistance.
6. Bayonet connectors: Bayonet connectors are a design that locks connectors by rotating pins, with a simple and fast insertion and extraction method, and can provide reliable waterproof performance. This type of connector is commonly used in aerospace and military applications.
7. Solder connectors: Solder connectors connect wires and plugs through welding, providing reliable electrical connections, but require additional waterproof measures such as insulation sleeves or heat shrink sleeves.
8. Suitable waterproof connectors need to be selected based on specific application requirements. Screw crimping and welding are common connection methods, and their advantages and disadvantages depend on the specific application environment, requirements, and process conditions. Screw crimping is suitable for situations that require frequent disassembly or replacement, while welding is suitable for connections that require greater firmness and durability.
