Structure of the circular waterproof connector

Circular Waterproof Connector is a special connector for connecting cables and equipment, it is waterproof, dustproof, corrosion resistant and anti-corrosive and can work normally in harsh meteorological and environmental conditions. The structure of the circular Waterproof Connector is composed of a plug and a socket, where the contact surface of the plug and socket is made of safe and reliable metal contact, which can withstand high power and high voltage and is suitable for use in the fields of electricity, telecommunications, radio and television, aerospace, aviation and the military. The following will introduce the structure of the circular waterproof connector, performance indicators and application areas.Waterproof Connector

First, the structure of the circular waterproof connector

Plug: plug is the active interface in the connector, the plug has multiple conductors, usually connected to the cable, the socket is usually installed on external equipment. Plug terminals are usually made of copper, steel and aluminum, etc., to transmit high power and high voltage signals, usually used for integrated circuit boards and external equipment connections.Circular Connector

Sockets: Sockets are passive interfaces in connectors. Sockets are interfaces installed on external devices where the plug is inserted into the socket so that the circuit board on the socket is connected to the pathway on the plug. Sockets have good insulation, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, UV protection and low temperature resistance. Round waterproof connector in the socket is generally used ring (common four, five, six, seven, eight, eleven, twelve holes, etc.) through-hole form, the socket part of the material is usually used alumina ceramic and heat-stable nylon, waterproof ring material is silicone material.

Waterproof ring: The waterproof ring of the circular waterproof connector is made of silicone material, which has good sealing, waterproof, dustproof and anti-UV capability, high temperature resistance and anti-ageing ability. Waterproof ring can prevent rainwater or sewage from entering the connector, thus ensuring that the electrical components inside the connector are not affected by the performance caused by moisture.Circular Waterproof Connector

Second, the performance indicators of the circular waterproof connector

Electrical performance indicators: the highest rated current, rated voltage and resistance and other parameters. Electrical performance indicators for its use is extremely important for the application effect.

Mechanical performance indicators: circular waterproof connectors in use must withstand certain mechanical properties, therefore, its mechanical performance is also debatable, such as shock resistance, vibration resistance, tensile strength, etc.

Environmental adaptability: round waterproof connector waterproof grade, dustproof grade, ozone resistance, UV resistance and high temperature resistance and other environmental adaptability performance will affect its field of application and the use of the effect.

Safety performance: fire, torch-proof, fuse-proof and leak-proof are round waterproof connector protection performance, its protection performance will affect the safety of people using the connector and protect equipment and individuals.

Third, the circular waterproof connector applications

Circular waterproof connectors are widely used in the defence industry, because in the tactical environment, circular waterproof connectors must be able to withstand all temperature and humidity conditions, and anti-vibration, anti-vibration to ensure the functional adaptability of the central control system and corrosion resistance.

Circular waterproof connectors are partially suitable for use on mobile vehicles, ships and aerospace electrostatic links. The connectors are used life span up to tens of thousands of times to meet the waterproof performance required by traffic management, so that the vehicle positivity is partially improved.

Used in poor environments, wet, vulnerable areas such as subsea oil and gas extraction, nuclear power plants and other industries. In oil and gas extraction, the advantages of circular waterproof connectors are anti-corrosion, anti-corrosion, explosion-proof, heat-resistant, etc.; while in the application of nuclear power plants, it is more important to focus on its resistance to radiation, stability and other factors.

Fourth, the conclusion

In short, circular waterproof connector is a powerful connector, through a good combination of mechanical and electrical, making the connector in extreme conditions are able to work properly and resist the effects of harsh environments. It has a wide range of applications, from the defence industry to the general civilian products are widely used in the electrical connection.
