Waterproof Rating Standards For Heavy-duty Connectors

In damp, cold natural environments or in liquids, 12v heavy duty connector aviation plugs and sockets are frequently subjected to liquid drips, sprays, or intrusion, so the introduction of a waterproof rating reasonably prevents these problems. Water resistance rating heavy duty crimp connectors is usually represented by IP codes, i.e., IPx (where x is a large number from 0 to 8, with higher values indicating higher water resistance), as shown below.

Water resistance rating heavy duty waterproof electrical connectors: When x=0 - no maintenance is required. When x=1 - Prevents water droplets from entering. When x=2, when the shell of heavy duty connector is tilted at an angle of 16 degrees, the water droplets falling into the shell will not be damaged. When x=3 - precipitation or spraying water from a 65-degree angle onto the casing, heavy duty electrical connectors will not be damaged. When x=4, liquid splashes onto the heavy duty power connectors casing from all directions and angles without causing harm. When x=5, tap water washing does not damage heavy duty connector 24 pin.
