For industrial connectors in various complex environments, they face the risk of corrosion from high salt to acid-base substances. Therefore, the ability to withstand salt spray corrosion is considered one of the key indicators for evaluating the long-term reliability and durability of industrial grade connectors in complex environments. So what is the salt spray test like? How to achieve higher salt spray corrosion resistance?

What is the salt spray test for industrial connectors?

 

Salt spray testing is an environmental testing method mainly used to evaluate the corrosion resistance of industrial connectors in salt spray environments. The salt spray testing experiment mainly uses the artificial simulated salt spray environmental conditions created by the salt spray testing equipment to assess the corrosion resistance performance of the product. It usually complies with the requirements of relevant standards such as IEC 60068, IEC61984, UL, etc.

 

 

Recommended product YM series: fully plastic body, high-strength anti-corrosion

 

The YM series industrial connectors are all plastic connectors, which are made of high-performance outdoor engineering plastic injection molded into a high-quality shell. They are coupled through a more reliable bayonet screw connection method to achieve higher corrosion resistance.

The functions of the YM series cover power supply, signal (PIN pin type, RJ45, fiber optic), and data (USB2.0, USB3.0, HDMI) connections, which can meet the multiple technical requirements of different scenarios and devices for connections.

 

Anti corrosion strength faction

 

1. High performance outdoor engineering plastic shell

 

2. There is a more corrosion-resistant waterproof sealing ring inside

 

3. Copper alloy contact parts with nickel bottom gold-plated

 

4. Certified by salt spray test 48H

 

 

The YM series plastic connectors meet the certification requirements of IEC61844, UL1977/2238/1683, and CQC GBT34989 standards. Their salt spray corrosion test time is 48H, making them a preferred recommended solution for anti-corrosion applications in marine equipment, medical equipment, outdoor equipment, and other fields.

 

 

One of the recommended industries: marine equipment

 

Ship equipment has been exposed to water environments for a long time, and the risk of salt spray corrosion continues to exist, especially in humid environments with high salinity in the open sea, which has a significant impact on the corrosion of ship equipment. Therefore, the hardware of ship equipment, including various industrial connectors adopted, requires sufficient corrosion resistance to resist corrosive substances in the surrounding environment.

CNLINKO's YM series industrial connectors are made of high-quality engineering plastic shells made entirely of plastic, which are tightly assembled and have high corrosion resistance. The salt spray corrosion test time is 48H, which can meet the technical requirements of ship equipment for preventing salt spray corrosion of connectors. For example, the above case is an application scenario on unmanned ship equipment.

 

Of course, in addition to its anti-corrosion performance, the YM series also excels in IP68 waterproofing, high and low temperature resistance, UV resistance, and stable connection, which is the comprehensive reason why it is highly favored by the marine equipment industry.
