It is very important to choose a waterproof connector suitable for your own use. It can avoid a lot of trouble in future use. So how to choose a waterproof cable connector?
First, look at the rated current. It is the amount of current that promotes a specific temperature rise of the female terminal, generally 20°C or 30°C. To use this data correctly, in addition to understanding the testing method, it is also necessary to pay attention to the testing environment.
Second, from a manufacturing standpoint, conventional waterproof connectors are mostly lathe-machined. Based on the increasingly sophisticated stamping skills, a new generation of stamped and formed waterproof connectors was derived.
Ultimately, from the installation point of view, to choose a suitable waterproof connector, not only the price of the waterproof connector should be considered, but the more important factor is the appropriate installation skills. Soldered waterproof connectors are naturally cheaper than surface mount and crimped waterproof connectors, because they do not require high temperature resistant plastic shells and do not require special crimping areas for the pins.
