Waterproof Rating Of Internal Components Of Heavy-duty Connectors

The wire connector heavy duty is mainly composed of an upper shell, male core, male pin, female core, female pin, lower shell, and accessories. There are many types of housings to meet the needs of the heavy duty electric cable connectors in various applications. When selecting a shell model, the IP protection rating is a crucial parameter to consider. The concept of IP protection rating will be explained below.

The housing, seals, and locking devices on heavy duty automotive electrical connectors will not affect the electrical components of heavy duty 12v connectors, such as from impact, foreign objects, moisture, dust, water or detergent, coolant, oil, or other liquid intrusion.

Depending on the application requirements, the heavy duty 12 volt connectors can achieve different protection levels such as IP65, IP67, and even IP69K. The IP69K rated 12v heavy duty connector can withstand high-temperature and high-pressure water gun cleaning, making it particularly suitable for occasions requiring frequent cleaning and disinfection, such as food processing, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals. In outdoor applications, marine environments, or corrosive environments such as chemical plants, the heavy duty crimp connectors sealing system can effectively isolate corrosive media such as salt spray, acid and alkali solutions, and organic solvents, greatly extending the service life of the heavy duty waterproof electrical connectors.
