Price, Grade And Usage Of Stainless Steel Waterproof Cable Connector

Nylon Cable Gland, as the name implies, is a connector that can be used in water. In a water environment, the cable connected by this connector has good connectivity and sealing. This connector is used in street lights, lighthouses, cruise ships, industrial equipment, sprinkler trucks and other places. Do you know that this connector is expensive? How many grades does it have? How is it used?

The price of the connector

At present, there are many brands and types of this connector on the market, but in the true sense, there are relatively few brands of connectors with excellent sealing performance, safe and reliable quality.

Before buying, you should just distinguish the types of connectors. According to the installation method, it can be divided into internal thread connection connectors, external thread connection connectors, card connection connectors and connectors with other connection methods. According to the waterproof function, it can be divided into waterproof connectors and general industrial connectors.

The price of the connector is not fixed. Its price is affected by many factors, such as the scale of the manufacturer, the size of the brand, the quality of the materials, the quality, the cost of transportation, etc. Generally speaking, the price of a qualified connector ranges from 20 yuan to 50 yuan.

Price, grade and usage of stainless steel waterproof cable joints

Joint grade

Joints can be divided into seven levels of protection against solids and nine levels of protection against water.

The standard for solid protection is seven levels from 0 to 6. The larger the number, the higher the level of protection. Level 0 indicates no protection against solids, level 1 indicates that solids larger than 50mml can be protected from invading the interior of the joint, level 2 indicates that solids larger than 12.5mml can be protected from invading the interior of the joint, level 3 indicates that solids larger than 2.5mml can be protected from invading the interior of the joint, level 4 indicates that solids larger than 1.0mm can be protected from invading the interior of the joint, level 5 indicates that solids of dust size can be protected from invading the interior of the joint, and level 6 means that a completely sealed state can be achieved. The protection against water is similar. The object of protection has changed from solid to water, but there are nine levels of protection against water.

How to use the connector

1. Choose the right connector material according to the model and specifications of the cable. The quality of connector materials on the market is uneven. In order to ensure the quality of the connector you choose, it is recommended not to be cheap and try to choose connectors produced by trustworthy manufacturers.

2. When installing the connector, try to avoid rainy days. On rainy days, the air is humid. Once water enters the connector during installation, it will seriously affect the life of the cable. In serious cases, short circuit accidents may even occur.

3. Before installation and use, be sure to carefully read the product manual given by the manufacturer, especially for cable connectors of 10kV and above. Before installation, all processes should be planned before doing it.

4. When installing the connector of the single-core armored cable on 10kvV, pay attention to grounding only one end of the steel belt.

5. Do not use too much force when pressing the copper tube. Make sure it is crimped in place. There will be many uneven points on the copper end face after crimping. These points can be flattened with a file, and no burrs can be left on the end face.

The price, grade and usage of stainless steel waterproof cable connectors are introduced here. I hope everyone has a general understanding of the basic knowledge of this connector.
